Itinerary

  • Origen Bistro

    To begin, you’ll meet with your guide at Origen Bistro Restaurant before moving on to “La Perseverancia” food market, a place created by the working-class people at the beginning of the XX century.

    10 minutes

  • Plaza de Mercado La Perseverancia

    There you’ll feel the typical atmosphere of a traditional Colombian food market as you talk to traditional cooks and locals, and try delicious fruits.

    1 hour

  • La Macarena

    You’ll then walk all over La Macarena neighborhood, which was Bogotá’s bohemian area in the mid-XXth century. Nowadays, this area has been transformed into a recognizable zone of international restaurants and art galleries.

    10 minutes

  • Florida, Bakery and Coffee shop

    Afterward, you’ll walk along the 7th street to enjoy the “Septimazo”, a very diverse path where you'll find street artists, singers, food karts and handicrafts, and will also identify some of the iconic buildings of the area. You’ll stop at the traditional “La Florida Bakery”, to taste delicious pastries and a hot beverage like Aguapanela or hot santafereño chocolate with cheese. Heading southeast, you’ll appreciate downtown’s transformation with the new cultural, commercial and residential students buildings in contrast to colonial and republican constructions, before tasting an artisanal ice-cream made out of Amazonic exotic fruits.

    50 minutes

  • Barrio La Candelaria

    Next, you’ll walk through La Candelaria historic district to enjoy a savory meal at a colonial restored house, where you can taste and see recipes from different regions of the country. At last, you’ll visit an indigenous store, where you’ll have the chance to taste some coca leaf products and have a chat with an indigenous woman from the Embera’s group. She’ll explain to you why Coca is not Cocaine and why it is a fundamental part of indigenous nutrition and a sacred plant. You’ll also get to know more about how they’ve struggled to preserve indigenous culture, economy, and traditions as they’ve faced conflicts with narcos, industry and the government.

Tastes of Colombia in an Afternoon

Published on Jan, 2025

Raul is knowledgeable and naturally friendly. The food stops were excellent regional examples and fun to taste and experience. The afternoon was well paced. We are very glad we signed up.

The tour was perfect, Raul was incredible!

Published on Dec, 2024

My guide was Raul, he was incredible. You always know if you had a good tour that when the tour is over, you are friends with the guide. I can confirm, he's a good friend now. The restaurants you visit are very authentic and the stories along the way are wonderful.

Do this tour early in your trip so you can revisit so many amazing spots!

Published on Apr, 2023

This tour was more than just food- it was a deep dive into Colombian culture and history, in a fun and approachable way. Our guide, Raul, was so knowledgeable, funny, and interesting. He took us to spots we would not have tried on our own and showed us so many more spots to try during the rest of our trip. I loved the Colombian hot chocolate (with cheese and delicious bread!), the Perseverancia market, and traditional empanadas at a popular lunch spot. Raul made the experienced personalized to our needs and showed us a few more hidden gems that weren’t on the tour. I would take this tour ten times over!

Highlight of the trip

Published on Feb, 2023

Amel is the man, super knowledgeable on the culture and history of bogota, even the worlds history to be honest. Are Spanish wasn’t the best, but don’t worry he made us feel like family and explained everything clear as day his English was superb. He took the time to ask what we wanted out of the day and made everything happen beginning to end it was definitely a trip to flavor town make sure you try the fruits and everything else he offers. Thank you Amel

Eating our way through Bogotá

Published on Jul, 2022

Sandra was a wonderful tour guide. She ensured we tried all of the most typical dishes/snacks throughout our tour and was friendly and inviting. She was thorough and stayed with us beyond the scheduled time to make sure we were able to experience every bit of the tour (we had experience an unavoidable delay at one of our stops). We ate everything in sight! Thank you for the tour Sandra!
