This was an incredible opportunity to try the flavors of Colombia! We stopped at multiple places, around seven in total, and the food was incredible. We got to try Capybara which was super cool. I had a great time and recommend this to anyone looking to sample different Colombian cuisine.

I did the Bogotá Food Tour with Juliana - we were able to get Juliana’s recommendations then buy and try the different foods, from drinks to typical dishes from Bogotá and other regions of Colombia. I really enjoyed my time on this tour and got some really good recommendations. Would definitely recommend it! Thank you Juliana- you were great!

We had a wonderful time on this tour trying Bogotano & Colombian food and drink. Juliana was an excellent tour guide! She knew so much about Colombia and Bogotá and was so nice answering all our questions, food related or just general tourist questions. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Bogotá!
