Food tour Bogota - This tour was a great way for me to start exploring Bogota and Colombia. Juliana was the perfect guide, giving a lot of information not only about the food. The food was great, diversified and we went all the way from sweet to savory and from coffee over to beer and coca-tea. This tour is easy to walk and you also get to know different areas of Bogota. So all in all, absolutely recommended!

A Tour Worth Tasting - Julien was an amazing guide! He was friendly, knowledgeable, and incredibly helpful in providing tips for other things to do. It's touted as tastings but we were very full by the time it was over so definitely come hungry!

The best birthday experience and food tour! - Juliana’s food tour around Bogota was absolutely the best part of our trip to Colombia. We went on the day of my wife’s birthday and Juliana’s knowledge, fun, and kindness made this birthday gift for my wife truly special. I had other plans for the morning and evening, and last minute looked into something fun to do during the afternoon. A food tour seemed like a perfect way to experience the city, the tastes, and to be together. I was expecting a nice time, but the foods we ate, the culture we learned of, and Juliana’s expertise made it something we’ll never forget. I can’t recommend this tour with Juliana enough!

Don’t hesitate, book now! - This is by far the best tour I’ve taken. The tour allows to taste so many of Bogotá’s traditional dishes, while also visiting such an interesting and lively part of the city and learning about the country’s history. Andres, our tour guide, was extremely knowledgeable and nice, everything is planned ahead and the tour flowed without hiccups. Places and people we visited were all fantastic, the food is delicious. Andres is fluent in English, the group is limited to 8 so you have all the time to ask questions, and take your time at each location. A++ a must if you are new to the city.

Walk, eat, repeat. A must-do for those trying to sample Bogota! - We tried soups, sampled fruits, ate lechona, and sampled beers and coffee! There were more snacks along the way, although I can't remember the name. We had a group of about 9, our guide adapted well to the latecomers who joined us after the tour started. She took us to get water and we played a game. I really enjoyed it and thankfully Bogota weather was kind so we weren't sweating the entire time! I learned a lot about the local culture, foods, and we immersed ourselves into the local community. Give it a go, especially if you're new to the city or Colombia!
