Not just a tasting, a fruit safari indoors. While most travelers only glimpse these fruits in busy markets, here you enjoy them in a relaxed setting, guided by a Peruvian guide who knows every flavor note and cultural secret.

You’ll taste Andean and Amazonian treasures that rarely leave Peru, creamy cherimoya, golden aguaymanto, tangy tumbo, and more.

Each is served in different forms: sliced, juiced, or as a mousse, showing their versatility from snack to gourmet dessert.

This isn’t only delicious, it’s insider knowledge. Learn how locals choose the ripest fruit, the traditions tied to each variety, and the surprising health benefits behind their popularity.

Don’t just see Peru, taste its hidden wonders, one juicy bite at a time.

And if your experience isn’t five stars, we’ll refund your money.
