Overview

The story of food is the story of the people.
Explore the unique and authentic street food and traditional quisine of the Sacred Valley.

Food can tell many stories… cultural, social, economic, and sometimes also emotional and spiritual.

Our tour invites you to take an in-depth look at the relationship between food and the people, through an experiential encounter with the typical street food and traditional quisine of the Sacred Valley of Peru.

The tour begins with a morning of tasting in the charming market area of the town of Urubamba. We will then take a tour to the magical Inca town of Ollantaytambo. Then we drive up the breathtaking mountains of the Andes to visit an indigenous Peruvian family and enjoy a traditional festive lunch. In the evening we will return to Urubamba, to finish the day with a local dessert.

So come with me and dive into an exiting, authentic and delicious experience. Lets go get something to eat!
