Great Variety, Good Taste - The variety of the food choices was spectacular. The guide was very helpful in describing all of the food as well as the story behind each one. She answered all the questions my family and I had about the culture of the area and recommendations for all over Medellin (Food/restaurants, cafes, views, new Spanish words, etc.)

It is an excellent way of... - It is an excellent way of knowing the food and culture of Medellin. The tour included only local businesses where the local people eat. Our guide, Maria, was excellent in explaining to us the history and the culture of Medellin , and how food is related to those topics. Maria made it the best food tour we ever have had.

A must do in Medellin! - We had a lovely experience with our guide Maria. Maria had lots of information and answered all our questions of food, culture and tourism. We got to experience several local eateries, left with very full bellies, and we felt like we got great value for our money. Maria is relaxed, super friendly and charismatic - it felt like walking the streets with a friend. We would highly recommend this tour in Medellin.

10/10 Food Tour Experience - My partner and I had the BEST time on this tour! María, our guide, was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and fun and we tried some amazing bites in El Poblado. I’d recommend this experience to anyone who is new to Medellin and wants a tasty introduction to the city.

Informative, fun, and delicious - Maria, our guide, was knowledgeable about the food and the culture, and she explained everything clearly and with humour. The 4 hour tour was longer than planned and was just right. Maria took the time to answer all our questions. She obviously likes her work because it shows in her relationship with the group. We were a Canadian group of 6, first time visitors to Colombia…

Just excellent all around - The food was incredible, but Maria was a highlight. She was an excellent tour guide and gave a lot of valuable information into the city, the food, and the country. I have done many food tours and this is definitely one of the top. Don't hesitate to book this.

10/10 Tour - The experience was great. We were the only ones that booked for the time slot we choose so it was very intimate. Our guide, Maria, was very helpful and friendly. We really enjoyed the spots she took us to. The coffee shop portion of the tour was amazing! My husband and mother loved the fish soup at the end.
