Yet, this expedition extends beyond the realm of food—it’s a voyage through Peru’s rich heritage and traditions.

Uncover the mysteries of Cuzco, once the capital of the mighty Inca Empire, and delve into its fascinating history.
And of course, no culinary escapade in Peru would be complete without a toast to its burgeoning wine scene. With its fertile vineyards and diverse terroirs, Peru boasts a burgeoning wine industry that rivals its South American counterparts. So, as you traverse this culinary wonderland, it’d be rude not to indulge in a wine tasting or two at some of the region’s most renowned wineries.
Join us on this epicurean journey through Peru, where every dish tells a tale, and every sip is a celebration of the country’s vibrant culinary heritage.
