DESCRIPTION
A cooking class tour in Cusco is an enriching experience that allows visitors to immerse themselves in Peruvian culinary culture. During the tour, you visit a local market to learn about the fresh and diverse ingredients used in Peruvian cuisine, and learn about the importance of gastronomy in Andean culture. Then, you head to a traditional kitchen where an expert chef guides the cooking class, teaching you how to prepare typical Peruvian dishes such as ceviche, lomo saltado or aji de gallina.
