The grace of the Marinera

We are starting a new section in our blog called Sights & Sounds of Aracari, where we will upload videos from all our trips. Starting with a charming capture of the Marinera, a graceful and romantic couple’s dance that uses handkerchiefs as props. The dance is an elegant reenactment of courtship, showing a blend of coastal Peruvian culture. You can experience this dance at the home of our contact in Trujillo, an exclusive opportunity for our clients.

Gastón Acurio – The ambassador of Peruvian cuisine

We at Aracari feel quite proud of Gastón Acurio’s achievements as the
ambassador of Peruvian cuisine abroad and locally. He has even managed to
instil much pride and a needed sense of identity amongst Peruvians.
