Peruvian Cooking Class Cocktails and Market Tour in Cusco

1.Peruvian Cooking Class Cocktails and Market Tour in Cusco

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 1,712 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $57Our pick

Explore San Pedro Market, cook three Peruvian dishes, mix two pisco cocktails, and take home recipes in this four-hour Cusco class.

“This excursion was very interesting and fun at first, with the San Pedro market tour! I definitely learned a lot. I did feel like the market tour and the cooking classes were very long altogether. I was definitely ready to go home after. It would have been nice to actually have individual burners and learn how to cook each meal. It felt very school like with us passing around bowls of ingredients and putting them in our station. Definitely hands off. Oh, and not to mention one of the European guys in our group kept sniffing the bowl of food that we used for our ingredients :/.”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 410 reviews · 2 hours (approx.) · from $33

Make chocolate from cacao bean to bar in Cusco, learn Peru’s cocoa story, taste chocolate drinks, and take home your own creations.

“A fun activity, very knowledgeable and friendly guide, going through the process of chocolate making. Finally, they give you 120 grams of hot chocolate (of the least quality) and one can prepare its desireable flavors with some options available. *** Charging $38+ for this activity is way beyong its value. We found that direct booking in the provider website would cost $25 (i. e., Viator charges 50%! more). OUTRAGEOUS. *** We have some comments for improvement: 1- There was a continuous noise coming from the store next to the workshop room, we found it difficult to hear the guide. Must find a solution for that. 2- Place bar seats in…”

Jose was very accommodating, ordering tea for her and trying to make her feel better so that we could enjoy the entire experience. Jose taught us about the history of Peruvian food and told us about the many different types of produce that grow in Peru. He sent us the recipes after the event. We went to the Marcelo Batata resturaunt a few nights later and it was amazing!”

Cook causa, cebiche, lomo saltado, and picarones in a small-group Lima class with pisco sour, local stories, and lunch.

“Yesterday we took a cooking class at the SkyKitchen in Lima. Yurac was our fabulous instructor and Maritza was our behind the scenes sous chef. What a great way to spend an early lunch/afternoon. We started with a lesson on how to make a great pisco sour. It was much better and less sweet than what you get in a restaurant. We have actually steered clear of them after trying one the first night. Yurac said the big difference is quality pisco and less simple syrup. I forgot to take pictures of this. We made Causa which is like a layered potato salad. It was made with seasoned mashed yellow…”
