What to expect

Begin your experience inside a real home kitchen in Cusco, where traditional Peruvian flavors and hands-on cooking come together.

Meet your instructor and a small group to begin your culinary adventure. No experience is needed, and whether you're a beginner or a confident home cook, you’ll learn something new about Peruvian food and culture.

Your group will prepare several traditional Peruvian dishes, plus appetizers and the classic Pisco Sour. As you cook, you’ll pick up practical techniques you can easily repeat at home, and your host will capture candid photos so you can remember the experience long after it ends.

Follow the step-by-step guidance, taking notes if you like. Most ingredients are easy to find worldwide, making the recipes simple to recreate later. You’ll also receive our digital recipe book and a curated Cusco Food Guide to keep exploring local flavors.

When the meal is ready, sit together to enjoy the dishes you created and toast with a homemade Pisco Sour served in your complimentary wine glass.

You leave with recipes, practical skills, meaningful moments, keepsakes, and the peace of mind of our 5-star money-back guarantee.
