The tour was very good and informative , he talked about the city and we tried some amazing food. Would recommend 10/10. Hernando is the best
Booked a tour for a few days within our visit to Colombia. We met near the clock tower and started the tour a few minutes after our meeting time. It's a bit pricier than what you'd spend going to these places alone, but being able to learn more about the history of the food and local culture made it worth it. The added security of moving with a group was nice too. The tour lasted about ~2 hours. Alvaro was our tour guide and he was great. He was a knowledgeable and funny guy, someone I'd love to tour with again. If you're able to get him as a guide you won't regret it!
Our guide, Robert, started the tour with an incredibly confusing "joke," telling us that because we ate breakfast, we were in trouble because the portions were massive and the tour was six hours long. The entire group was confused, wondering if we had booked the wrong trip. Robert completely moved on without clarifying until my wife directly asked him if the tour was actually six hours. Only then did he admit it was a joke. Unfortunately, like most of his humor throughout the day, it fell completely flat and just created awkward tension. Later on, after hyping up a piece of bland bread at a bakery as "the best in the world," he put everyone on the spot by asking us to rate it from 1 to 10. Most people politely lied and said 7–10, but I was honest and gave it a 5. His demeanor and forced interactions made the experience highly uncomfortable. We had some absolutely amazing food during our time in Colombia, but nothing on this tour would even make my top 10 list. Shrimp Ceviche: It tasted incredibly slimy. Most of the group couldn't even finish their small portions because it simply wasn't good. Patacón: It was just okay, but it was ruined by a massive, overpowering chunk of extremely salty cheese. Traditional Candies: Not my cup of tea, but admittedly not bad. The Rest: The remaining stops were completely uninspired—the culinary equivalent of taking raw burger meat out of a package and throwing it on a grill. The logistics were incredibly poorly handled. While at the bakery, a fellow tour member and I both asked to use the restroom. Robert told us we couldn't use the one there, but that we could use one at a future stop. That next stop ended up being a local grocery store for an empanada sample. Robert pointed me toward the restroom, but as I came out, I was immediately accosted and told I had to pay to use it. When I asked Robert about it, he confirmed I had to pay. It is completely unacceptable that on a paid food tour, guests are denied a free restroom at one stop only to be forced to pay out-of-pocket at the next. If paying is required, the tour company should either let guests use the free facilities at the bakery, or at the very least, cover the fee for their paying customers. Robert’s poor attitude and awkward humor, combined with the low-quality food selections chosen by this company, made this street food tour the single biggest mistake of our trip to Colombia. Avoid this tour at all costs.
Hi Dennis Deppen! Thank you for taking the time to share your experience — we genuinely appreciate all feedback, positive or critical. We're sorry the tour didn't meet your expectations. That said, we'd like to offer some context. The two other reservations who joined you that day both left 5-star reviews, highlighting Robert's work and the food — and their experience reflects the feedback we consistently receive across our 1,364 five-star reviews on Viator, which represent 98% of our total ratings. Robert is passionate about what he does and put his best effort into presenting our traditional street food in an engaging and entertaining way. Humor and storytelling are a core part of how we share Colombian culture, and while we understand it may not land the same way for everyone, his intention is always to create a warm and enjoyable atmosphere. Regarding the restroom situation: we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. The Pandabono stop had no running water available that day, which is why Robert had to find an alternative. He was not aware that the restroom at the next stop required payment, and we completely understand your frustration — that should never fall on a paying guest. We'll make sure our guides are always prepared to handle this kind of situation so it doesn't happen again. Our tour is designed to showcase the authentic, popular street food of Cartagena and Colombia — the kind of food locals eat and love every day. We're proud of that, even knowing it won't be everyone's cup of tea. That is why we are explicit as possible on the tour page with the tour description and itinerary for guests to know before hand what they will try. We hope you had many other wonderful moments in Colombia, and we wish you all the best on your future travels.
