I studied tourism and after worked as a tour leader travelling along Perú with groups from North America and Europe, where I could show about the culture, traditions, amazing landscapes and gastronomy of my country. I love to welcome tourists all over the world and help them to discover this land and also I am very interested in my guest`s stories learning from them. My purpose is make history entertaining sharing some little anecdotes, and revealing unusual aspects from important cultures and landmarks from this land.

Quite al disappointing, there was very little food tasting, only one savoury one, a basic empanada. Then a queso helado and a bit of fruit. We gave the guide 35 sol each at the beginning of the tour. Pretty sure he didn't use it all and l didnt get any money back

This tour was a great way to spend our last day in Arequipa. Paolo was so knowledgeable about both Peruvian food and history. He shared his extensive knowledge about the significance of the food and a lot of interesting facts. A fun memorable morning with good food. Highly recommended
