This was a good way to... - This was a good way to get to know the area for a first-timer to Medellín. Santiago was a great guide and our group had fun too. Hanging out on the rooftop was the best part of the evening.

Arepas taste good - Santiago, our guide, was charming and quite funny. We ate a lot of food including different types of arepas. He also gave us a lot of information about the area and his opinions about whether arepas originated in Venezuela or Colombia. Ask for Santiago.

Ate Every Last Crumb! - As a picky eater, I am always scared to book food tours in new cities. But this one was amazing, I ate every single thing to the last crumb! Our tour guide Brayan was so passionate and friendly, and really was focused on us having a good experience.

Good food great guide - This is a great tour, and Brian is a great host. I have done street food tours in Bogota and Cartagena before, and this is the best I have been on. The food and planning is better. Food is prepared as soon as we show up. And it is good. Dont eat before the trip, you will be full :-)

5 tasty stops and 1 rooftop bar on a wonderful walking tour around El Poblado - I was visiting my brother, who has lived in Medellin for 1 year only. We decided to take this tour through Viator. Brayan our tour guide was fun and informative. He gave us a bit of background of all the foods we were going to eat, then took us to 5 different places to sample the local foods. He spaced out the stops so we wouldn't get overfull. There were six of us on the tour. All the participants were nice and friendly. Overall, we had a great tour

Greasy street food tour .. - So there were about 12 people in our group and immediately we realize that the age range is about 20s - 30s . Our guide himself was only 19! We started at the church to get some Arepas which was actually OK but very greasy. We then got some drinks from the local bar which was in a shady neighborhood. We then walked to get bunuelos, which were pretty tasty . The other people on our tour were pretty drunk and high the entire time. Then we ended up going to a rooftop which was probably the highlight and paid for our own cocktails. Get the one with the passionfruit. It was the best. From there, we went to one of the street vendors for super greasy 2 AM sandwiches, which were sausages and supposed to meat lol And then we ended our tour with empanadas. Definitely not for anyone over the age of 25 to 30 ..
