Overview

South America Culinary Vacation

The gastronomy of South America is diverse and delicious, and you can explore it on this unique trip into the Andes region of Peru and Bolivia. The biodiversity of the region produces distinct local varieties of fruits, vegetables, and grains. Form the corn, maca, kiwicha, and cocoa of Peru to the sugar cane, quinoa, and potatoes of Bolivia, you will find many different foods during your hands-on cooking classes and while dining out.There is also a thriving and vibrant restaurant scene in these two countries, with everything from innovative fine-dining restaurants to centuries-old rural cooking traditions to be explored.

Peruvian cuisine is among the world’s most diverse – and currently among its most highly touted. It includes age-old indigenous traditions as well as influences from colonization and immigration from many different European and Asian countries. It is said to combine the flavors of four continents, making it truly unique, and you can enjoy this uniqueness during our Lima food tours and culinary experiences in Cusco.

Bolivian cuisine is perhaps lesser-known that that of its neighbor, but it is no less delicious. From market stalls to high-end restaurants, you will find a wealth of foods to enjoy that focus inherently on the natural products of this biodiverse area.

But of course, the gastronomy is only one part of the wonders of Peru and Bolivia. The cultural sites left by the Incas and the colonial sites built by the Spaniards offer much to explore. Peru’s famed site of Machu Picchu is one of the seven modern Wonders of the World. And Bolivia also offers a breathtaking array of landscapes to explore, from giant salt flats to mountainous lakes, each of them full of unique and diverse flora and fauna to enjoy on our culinary tour of Peru and Bolivia.
