Description
This is a Peruvian version of ‘Who is America?’ This afternoon tour will give you the perfect introduction to Peruvian culture and a bit of our history in a fun, funny way. You will learn about us in a unique, completely different style, this is not the typical touristy guided tour!
First, we’ll drive to the Morro Solar in Chorrillos. From here you will have a good sight of the city. On one side you will see all the nice apartments overlooking the Pacific Ocean, on the other, you will see the slums or aka the shanty towns of Peru's capital city. Then you will learn about the war between Peru and Chile and will find out why we love each other so much 😅. After that, we will visit the Peru brand and learn about Limeños (people from Lima) and how a single video has changed drastically our "culture" and mindset in the last decade
Then we'll head back to Selina where a special local guest will be teaching us about Pisco, Peru's national drink. You’ll learn about the history, the origins, and how to make variations of our two classic cocktails, the Pisco Sour and Chilcano, and will of course finish our event tasting a few of those drinks (or more!)
