A must do food tour!! - My experience with chef Jesus has been the highlight of my time in Cusco!! If you do one organized tour here -- it should be this one! I did the Vegan food tour while my husband hiked Rainbow Mountain, and wound up being the only person on the tour. I was grateful he went ahead with only one guest and felt so special! He is incredibly knowledgeable about Peruvian history and food and was happy to answer my many, many questions. The market tour was really great. Since I don't speak Spanish very well, I wouldn't have been able to experience so many different things without his guidance. The food was AMAZING and will be one of my favorite meals I've had in Peru. (And how fun that I got to make the dishes myself!!) He's obviously a very accomplished chef and I felt very lucky to be able to get some lessons in Peruvian cooking from him. The cocktails were also very special and delicious. I'm so greatful for such a special experience!!

Fun, Engaging and Delicious! - The cooking class and tour was amazing! Learned so much in the market tour and was able to try local fruits, cheese and chocolate before the cooking portion even began. Chef Jesús was engaging and funny while making multiple courses and cocktails. Would definitely do this tour again!

Big! - A great experience! Chef Jesús is a master of Peruvian cuisine and history. The tour in the San Pedro market is informative and very entertaining, the fresh ingredients are bought in the same market and then cooked. The cooking classes are very entertaining, and chef Jesús is a super host.
