Tour Description

Welcome to an extraordinary culinary adventure in the vibrant town of Aguas Calientes. Nestled in a charming hotel with a view of the awe-inspiring Vilcanota River, we invite you to dive into a remarkable cooking class where heritage and culture blend to craft one of our most emblematic dishes: trout ceviche.

The session unfolds in a picturesque setting featuring expansive windows that offer stunning vistas of the river and its natural surroundings. Our head chef, a devoted enthusiast of authentic Peruvian cuisine, will guide you through each step in creating this unique and vibrant dish.

The river trout, the key component of our ceviche, is sourced from the pristine waters of the Vilcanota River. This locally harvested, sustainably nurtured fish contributes a fresh and delicate taste to the meal.

Ceviche is a classic Peruvian delicacy featuring fresh fish marinated in lime juice, complemented by red onion and sweet potato. There are various styles of ceviche, and we will be preparing one of them.

Peruvian cuisine is celebrated for its diversity and rich flavor profiles, shaped by the fusion of cultures over time. Our cooking class will not only allow you to savor an exquisite dish but also immerse you in the very essence of Peruvian culinary heritage.

The class spans 45 minutes, offering an enjoyable and instructive experience. By the end, you will depart not only with the trout ceviche recipe but also with insights into a culinary tradition deeply rooted in the history and passion of Peruvian gastronomy.

Experiência top com a Best Cusco Tours! Em Aguas Calientes, o chef explicou cada passo do ceviche, usando peixe fresquinho, limão, ají e milho crocante. Mão na massa, grupo pequeno, tudo bem higienizado. Ainda rolou pisco sour e dicas locais. Saí confiante pra repetir em casa. Vale muito antes/depois de Machu Picchu! Preço justo e equipe atenciosa demais.

Wow, was für eine Exkursion mit Best Cusco Tours in Cusco, Peru! Super Organisation, pünktlicher Pick-up und eine kleine, entspannte Gruppe. Unser Guide war mega freundlich, erzählte spannend über Inka-Geschichte und kannte die besten Fotospots. Die Stopps im Heiligen Tal waren gut getaktet, nie hektisch, genug Zeit zum Genießen. Bus bequem, Wasser und kleine Tipps gegen die Höhe (Coca-Tee!) inklusive. Buchen ging easy per WhatsApp, Preis-Leistung top. Würde ich dir sofort wieder empfehlen, wenn du Cusco erkundest. Tolle Erinnerungen und null Stress.
