Peruvian Cooking Class Including Local Market Tour and Exotic Fruit Tasting
Potatoes, a world-wide staple food, originate from present-day southern Peru and were domesticated approximately 7,000–10,000 years ago.
Peruvians make their national seafood dish Ceviche from fresh raw fish cured in lime and spiced with a variety of seasonings including chopped onions.
Food lovers who enjoy a fiery relish will love Salsa de Rocoto, made with hot Rocoto peppers and complemented with cilantro, garlic and lime juice.

    The trip to the market and cooking class with Felipe and Nindi was exceptional. I'm still savoring the food and the time with the two of them. The class was a great introduction to the incredible foods of Peru. I highly recommend the experience.

    Excellent introduction into Peruvian food! Trip to the market was informative and interesting and Amadeo our tour guide was great! He spoke perfect English which made interacting easy. The Amazon fruit tasting was a highlight and we were lucky enough to be the only ones on the tour so had the kitchen to ourselves. Food was delicious, our chef was also lovely, highly recommend.

    This was start to finish, a great time. Chris was a wonderful host, and made the entire process fun and exciting. The cooking steps themselves ranged in difficulty from novice to semi-novice, but everything was flexible. Note: Do not fill up before hand. We had a morning session, and I was very glad that I hadn't eaten breakfast first, there was plenty of food to be had!

    This was a perfect tour ! It was everything that was advertised and more. The market experience was really special - shopping with the chef for ingredients for the appetizer and entre that you get to select. The preparation is hands on. After the meal is prepared you are served what you cooked.

    I had a fantastic experience with Richard and Marcelo, first in the market and then cooking in their kitchen/dining area. The market was a great introduction to the produce and fish of the area. Then Marcelo led me through preparation of the two dishes I had chosen. He is very experienced and knowledgeable, and the food we made was delicious. Both Richard and Marcelo were very nice and personable, and they patiently answered all of my questions. I highly recommend this tour to everyone.

    The Peruvian Cooking Class was my favorite part of our trip to Lima! Richard and Marcello made the whole experience fun, energetic, and informative. In the tour of the huge market, we met gracious friendly vendors who obviously enjoyed working with Haku Tours. Back at the kitchen, we were guided to prepare and present delicious authentic Peruvian dishes. Richard and Marcello were knowledgeable about the culture and history of their country. Also, Haku Tours is a nonprofit company that gives proceeds to help people of Peru living in extreme poverty. I wish we had booked all of our tours with this company!! They are the best!
