The Lima Gourmet Company Gastronomic Tour


16



The Lima Gourmet Company Gastronomic Tour

Tourism in Lima Peru, once omitted from

travelers’ lists while visiting the country, has

been steadily attracting the attention of globetrotters

and adventure-seekers.


While there are an abundance of tours in Lima

that follow the typical tourist circuits led by

traditional guided monologues, we believe that

a hands-on experience, savoring the food,

chatting with real limeños and visiting the top

restaurants, districts and historical points the

locals prefer is a much more dynamic

and exciting way to see the city.

We’ve designed this Lima Peru tour to be an

ideal introduction to the city and Peruvian

culture so that you can get a good feel of the

city in just five hours.

Now you have no excuse not to fall in love with the city before heading to Machu Picchu, the Amazon or even if you’re

just here for work.

17



This Lima Peru tour starts at a local roastery,

where they hand-pick the coffee beans daily,

for an organic Peruvian coffee. You will also

tour the colonial streets of the bohemian

district, Barranco, home to artists, musicians

and the city’s top art galleries.


From here you’ll visit a traditional market in

the San Isidro district to try exotic fruits and

local products and learn the ancient myths

and legends associated with them.

The third stop is one of the city’s top seafood

restaurants (cebichería), Embarcadero 41

Fusión, on Avenida La Mar in the

Miraflores district – a stop other tours in

Lima won’t take you. You’ll discover the

secrets to the perfect Cebiche and Pisco Sour

as you prepare the dish and cocktail yourself

with the head chef and bartender.

The last stop is for lunch at la Huaca Pucllana, a restaurant within a pre-Incan archeological complex – undoubtedly

a highlight of tourism in Lima Peru. This prestigious restaurant is so impressive that the King of Spain, Mick Jagger, Bill

and Hillary Clinton, just to name a few, have made sure not to miss it during their trips to Lima. You’ll enjoy a variety of

gourmet Peruvian dishes as well as four different desserts and another pisco-based cocktail.

29



Pisac Market

A famed hill town, Pisac is a great place

to purchase top quality Andean

knitwear at lower prices than visitors

will find in major cities during their

travels in Peru.


Woven blankets, tapestries, and alpaca

garments such as sweaters and

mittens, colorful fabric and accessories

are found in abundance at the Pisac

market in addition to pottery, jewelry,

and other handicrafts.

Though Pisac’s biggest crafts market

takes place on Sunday, you will find

fewer tourists and smaller crowds in

general if you visit the weekday craft

markets.

The village’s largest produce market is

also held on Sunday, bringing a

multitude of vendors from the countryside to supply the local population with produce, fresh from the fields.

30



Pisac Inca Ruins

It’s not hard to succumb to the

charms of sunny Pisac, a

bustling colonial village at the

base of a spectacular Inca

fortress perched on a mountain

spur. Its pull is universal and

recent years have seen an influx

of expats and new age

followers in search of an

Andean Shangri-la. Located just

33km northeast of Cuzco by a

paved road, it’s the most

convenient starting point to the

Sacred Valley.


The ruins are separated along the ridge into four groups: Pisac, Intihuatana, Q'allaqasa, and Kinchiracay. The Intihuatana

group includes the Temple of the Sun, baths, altars, water fountains, a ceremonial platform, and an Intihuatana, a volcanic

outcrop carved into a "hitching post for the Sun" (or Inti).

With military, religious, and agricultural structures, the site served at least a triple purpose. Researchers believe that Pisac

defended the southern entrance to the Sacred Valley, while Choquequirao defended the western entrance, and the

fortress at Ollantaytambo the northern. Inca Pisac controlled a route which connected the Inca Empire with the border of

the rain forest.

31



Ollantaytambo

After lunch, we proceed onto

Ollantaytambo an attractive

little town located at the

western end of the Sacred

Valley. The town has been built

on top of original Inca

foundations and is the best

surviving example of Inca town

planning.


The town is located at the foot

of some spectacular Inca ruins

which protected the strategic

entrance to the lower

Urubamba Valley. The temple

area is at the top of steep

terracing which helped to

provide excellent defenses.

Stone used for these buildings was brought from a quarry high up on the opposite side of the Urubamba River - an

incredible feat involving the efforts of thousands of workers. The complex was still under construction at the time of the

conquest and was never completed.

Machu Picchu Highlights & Additional Tour Options


38



Guided Tour of Machu Picchu (2 – 3 Hours)

The ‘Holy Grail’ for lovers of Inca

monuments, the enigmatic lost city

of Machu Picchu is the most

famous archaeological site in all of

South America and possibly the

world.

The spectacular collection of

temples, terraced hills and plazas

was the mountain-top citadel of

the Inca under Pachacutec and

Tupac Yupanqui, until the coming

of the Europeans with Pizarro.


It may have the most familiar

name, but Machu Picchu has refused to reveal many of its mysteries, including the secrets of its construction, function,

and demise. The overgrown ruins were discovered by US historian Hiram Bingham in 1911, and the quality of the

stonework hints that it was an extremely important ceremonial site.

The remains are thought to date from around 1450, built at the height of the Inca Empire, and as they escaped being

plundered by the Spanish they include semi-intact icons and shrines that were defaced or removed at other sites.

Entering the site, a set of steps leads to the ruined Temple of the Sun and a series of altars and niches. Highlights

include the remains of ceremonial baths, the Sacred Plaza with its tremendous view across the Urubamba River valley, a

rare shrine to the sun, and a labyrinth of passageways and cells.

The Sun Gate (2 Hours)

Inti Punku the Sun Gate marks the

entrance to Machu Picchu.

It is a one hour uphill hike to the

southeast of the Sanctuary, climbing

more than 300 meters. The hike is on

the original Inca trail and is paved with

Inca stones.

There is a spectacular view from the

gate (pictured).

42



Apu Machu Picchu (4 to 5 Hours Roundtrip)

The hike to the summit of Apu Machu

Picchu is 2 ½ hours and can be quite

steep in places.


This trail, accessed from Machu Picchu,

joins parts of the Inca trail leading to the

Sun Gate before climbing to the

mountain's highest point. From there,

enjoy the view of soaring eagles as well

as Machu Picchu and other significant

ruins in the area, such as Putukusi,

Huayna Picchu, Salkantay mountain and

the Vilcanota River view.

This is a breathtaking hike, lot of orchids

along the way, birds in the bushy areas,

and with every stop the view is gets

better and better. The climb is 600

meters uphill, so a reasonable level of

fitness is required.

*** Access to Apu Machu Picchu is controlled by special tickets which need to be purchased in advance by us. Access is

07:00 – 11:00. Please ask to have these tickets included in your tour if desired***

43



Inka Bridge (Bridge 1 Hour Round Trip)

This hike is to the south west of Machu Picchu,

a nice original trail that overlooks the

Aobamba valley and the Hydro-electric plant.


This Inca Bridge is a part of a mountain trail

that heads west from Machu Picchu. The trail

is a stone path, part of which is cut into a cliff

face. A twenty-foot gap was left in this

section of the carved cliff face, over a 1,900

feet drop that could be bridged with two tree

trunks. When the tree trunks were removed

then the trail became impassable to outsiders.

The path is narrow and paved with original

Inca stones.

The steep trail continues on and climbs the

side of the mountain, leading adventurous

travelers to a remote corner of this

archaeological site. In addition to a

magnificent bird's-eye view of Machu Picchu, the summit also offers a perfect vantage point to the canyon of

the Vilcanota River, the mountain of Putukusi and the distant snow-capped Andean peaks.

44



Huayna Picchu (3 - 4 Hours)

Huayna Picchu is the mountain you see

behind Machu Picchu. Towering above

the north end of Machu Picchu this steep

mountain is often seen in the backdrop

to the classic photos of the ruins.


The mountain is steep, but stone steps

are laid along most of the way and where

the mountain is steeper you will find

steel cables used as handrails. For fit

people it is not a difficult climb.

Very Limited Access!

Only 400 people are allowed to hike

Huayna Picchu each day. You have to

sign in at the entrance gate. The first 200

tickets are available for the 8:00am hike.

The second 200 are available at 10:00am.

***You should buy these special tickets in advance with us to be sure you will have space for this hike***

45



The Huayna Picchu Hike

You’ll find breath-taking views while

hiking up and there are some ruins near

the top which many like to visit.


The most important thing about Huayna

Picchu is the bird’s eye view of the

whole of Machu Picchu from the top.

More on the level of difficulty:

You will be glad to see that the path is

almost two meters wide, but at the

beginning only, later it becomes

narrower, and one side there is a steep

fall.

There are some accidents and even

deaths every year so be aware this can

be a quite dangerous hike.

After a while you will find the path

becomes really narrow - only a couple of feet wide and here the slope is really steep. Throughout the rocks are uneven

and sometimes slippery but you will find hand rails along those areas.

trees, orchids, toucans, woodpeckers, trogons

and –with luck- monkeys or sloths.


After your descent from the Canopy, experience

the Anaconda Walk for about 30 minutes along

the 200-meter wooden bridge over the
