Sur l’animée Avenida Santander, nous ferons une pause pour plonger dans les saveurs côtières – dégustation de ceviche de style colombien, une touche rafraîchissante au classique, ainsi que d’autres délicieuses créations de fruits de mer. Frais, zesté, et plein de caractère caribéen.
Vous comblerez votre dent sucrée avec des cocadas, une friandise traditionnelle afro-antillaise qui séduit tout le monde. Et vous apprendrez un secret très Carthagène : c’est le seul endroit où vous pourrez réellement goûter au « bonheur » !
Nous continuons à faire rouler les saveurs avec un arrêt pour déguster le pandebono — un pain chaud et fromageux de la Vallée du Cauca en Colombie, reconnu par TasteAtlas comme le pain le plus délicieux au monde — accompagné de jus frais et d’extraits de fruits tropicaux des Caraïbes que vous pourriez déguster pour la première fois.
Vous ne pouvez pas quitter Carthagène sans vous arrêter à cet endroit emblématique de la cuisine de rue — l'endroit idéal pour déguster des fritos colombiens : arepa de huevo croustillante, carimañola salée, pomme de terre farcie et autres bouchées délicieuses et dorées que les habitants aiment depuis des générations.

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.
Book this tour before anything else! We got to experience so many different foods, Karen and Elio took great care of us. We made new friends and enjoyed an afternoon touring Cartegena. 10/10!!
What a wonderful experience Karen was very knowledgeable and passionate. I learned so much. She also remembered all of our names in the group.
Mercedes and Elliot were phenomenal tour guides! Enjoyed the food and learning about the culture!
The Food Tour was amazing! It was a great mix of food tasting and learning the history behind each item we sample. Alvaro knowledge about Colombia, the region, and the history each food made tour exciting and interesting!
Had a great time learning about Cartagena and experiencing food we might otherwise have missed. Legaxy was very knowledgeable and an overall great tour guide!
Legaxy was a great guide - knowledgeable, thoughtful, articulate. I enjoyed his narrative very much.
Great experience! The tour guide was very knowledgeable about the different types of food and the history of the area. The tour was informative, engaging, and enjoyable from start to finish. Highly recommended
Nando was fantastic. Best tour of our trip to Cartagena. He shared interesting history throughout the walk and made everything easy to understand. The street food stops were great. Lots of variety and felt very authentic. We left full and with a much better feel for the city.
I had a personal guide; her name was Yahuil( I may be spelling it wrong😅), but she was very attentive, explained the history in detailed, provided several food options from drinks to desserts, native fruits, and food. I was stuffed by the end! Incredible experience, definitely worth doing it!
