FANTASTIC STREET FOOD TOUR WITH CESAR - FANTASTIC STREET FOOD TOUR by Cesar +57 318 6681512. He picked us up at our hotel in the walled city. Good English..just have to follow with the accent. He was a few minutes early and waited. I contacted the company by WhatsApp and they were very honest and quick in their responses. Their price was very competitive. Only 2-3 were this price. We paid $85 for 2. Paid cash. Added tip. I told him I was concerned about the knife and water used on fruits to cut. He went above and beyond - brought gloves, sanitizer, knife and water and cut mangoes himself and gave us at fruit vendor. We had mango, chickoo and 2-3 other fruits I hadn’t seen before. In the tour - We had fried plantain with cheese, arepo with shrimp and with cheese, shrimp ceviche and sweet coconut He narrated thru out the history of cartagena, slaves that were traded here, significance of different things. We ended the tour at the emerald museum about emeralds but no pressure to buy. He used to be a butler then concierge at Sofitel so is very knowledgeable. Tour was about 2 hours. He was ready to have us try anything in our way..coconut treat for example..HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
