Bogotá Food Tour: A Must for Foodies!

Please note: This tour is not suitable for under 18s, vegetarians, vegans or those who don’t eat pork. 

Tour time: 12:00-16:00 (can overrun due to unforeseen circumstances e.g. weather, crowds etc.)

You will meet your local food expert directly outside the brightly coloured ‘La Perseverancia Market’. Here you will learn about common local ingredients and enjoy the best ajiaco (traditional soup in Bogotá) in the entire city. 

There will be a stop at a local Chicheria where you’ll be able to discover more about the turbulent past of Bogotá’s ‘indigenous beer’ and taste it for yourself.

After leaving La Perseverancia neighbourhood, you’ll begin your walking tour around the city, finishing in La Candelaria. The walk isn’t challenging and should be fine for anyone who has had a couple of days to acclimatise to Bogotá’s high altitude conditions! It goes without saying that there will be plenty of refreshment stops along the way.

The tours run with a maximum of eight guests so you will get a very personal look at Colombia’s food scene. During your tour, there will be 10 tastings across the city including exotic fruits, roasted suckling pig (also known as lechona), chicha and the famous Bogotá hot chocolate and cheese!

Later on, you’ll visit a local bar to try the nation’s favourite game: Tejo. This is Colombia’s national sport and involves throwing metal pucks at gunpowder packets. It’s wild, fun and a must-do activity in Colombia! 

The tour will close with a coffee workshop where you’ll learn about coffee production in Colombia and steeping techniques. Of course, we know that any coffee workshop wouldn’t be complete without a cup of some authentic Colombian coffee too! 

Undo the button on your jeans and get ready for the ultimate Colombian feast!

Included:

  • Food (unless otherwise stated)
  • Drinks (bottled water and local drinks)
