Karla, our charming guide, shared a wealth of information about Arequipa's food, customs and history in the market and the restaurants we visited. She really took time to get to know us and was very caring of our needs. Each stop of the tour was carefully thought out to maximize the experience. Karla's loving pride in Arequipa's culture and traditions shone through the entire tour and added to our enjoyment. Not to be missed!

Amazing day in Arequipa

Published on Dec, 2024

We had an amazing time with Karla on our tour in Arequipa! The day started with a vibrant visit to the local market, where Karla introduced us to unique Peruvian ingredients and local specialties. Her knowledge and passion made the experience unforgettable. We then strolled through the charming streets of Arequipa, stopping at several restaurants to taste authentic dishes like rocoto relleno. Each stop was carefully curated, and Karla ensured we understood the cultural significance behind the flavors. The walking portions were delightful, offering beautiful views of the city while we digested between tastings. Karla’s warm personality and attention to detail made the tour feel personal and special. Highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to experience the true taste of Arequipa!

A beautiful day with a wonderful guide tasting and learning about Arequipa!

Published on Nov, 2024

I had a very positive experience walking and tasting Arequipa with the guide, Karla. She is very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about Arequipa; has lived there all of her life. Enjoyed trying new foods and learning some of the local history!
