Gastronomy
Peru

Peru has once again earned global recognition as the World’s Leading Gastronomic Destination 2025 by the World Travel Awards. From Lima’s vibrant dining scene to the ancient traditions of the coast, Andes, and Amazon, Peru offers a remarkable journey of flavours shaped by one of the world’s most diverse geographies. Its rich biodiversity provides superfoods, native herbs, and unique ingredients that inspire exceptional cuisine.

This abundance, together with Peru’s cultural fusion, has placed the country among the world’s top culinary destinations. With four restaurants featured in The World’s 50 Best, including Lima’s Maido ranked #1, Peru stands out for creativity and innovation.

Travellers can experience this heritage through Lima, Ica, Arequipa, and Cusco, enjoying cooking classes, pisco experiences, picanterías, and Pachamanca traditions.
