This program invites travelers to explore Peru through its most living expression: its cuisine. From the Pacific coast and its vibrant ceviche culture to the volcanic valleys of Arequipa and the ancestral landscapes of the Andes, each region reveals a dialogue between territory, tradition, and contemporary creativity. Guided by chefs, home cooks, and local food guardians, participants discover native ingredients, time-honored techniques, and culinary rituals that continue to shape daily life. More than a tasting experience, this journey is an immersion into history, identity, and the deep connection between food, community, and landscape — a journey where every dish tells a story.

DAY 1: LIMA - INTRODUCTION TO PERU’S COASTAL WORLD (ARRIVAL)

Arrival in Lima and transfer to the hotel. We begin the journey with a gentle acclimatization walk along the Malecón of Miraflores, where the Pacific Ocean and the cold Humboldt Current serve as a starting point for understanding marine biodiversity and its direct influence on Peruvian cuisine.

In the evening, enjoy a contemporary fine-dining experience, selected according to your culinary preferences and the availability of the city’s leading restaurants.
