サンタマルタ旧市街のフードツアー半日

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing Santa Marta Food Tour! This food tour was easily one of the highlights of my time in Santa Marta! It was the perfect combination of delicious Colombian food, local culture, history, and exploring the beautiful Old City. Our guides was fantastic, friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about Santa Marta and its food. We visited several local spots and had the opportunity to taste a variety of traditional foods, fresh tropical fruits, and regional specialties. I especially enjoyed learning the stories behind what we were eating instead of simply stopping somewhere for a quick bite. The tour felt relaxed and personal, and there was plenty of food throughout the experience. Walking through the Old City while learning about the culture made it feel like we were experiencing the real Santa Marta, not just the typical tourist attractions. If you’re visiting Santa Marta and love food, culture, and discovering local hidden gems, I highly recommend this tour. Come hungry, you won’t be disappointed! 🇨🇴🌴🍉 10/10 experience and absolutely worth it!

Carlos was great. Took us for good Colombian food. Matched stops for food with juice and coffee. We walked the right amount and gave us information about the city. Great tour!

Good walking historical food tour. Fantastic fruits, juices, pastries seafood.; more delicious things than I could finish. I also loved the beverages, history, for example the gold museum as well as learning about the current situation in town. Andreas was a wonderful guide. Highly recommended!

I had an amazing food walking tour in Santa Marta—a perfect mix of flavor, culture, and history. We started with delicious coffee from the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, sweetened with panela and a hint of cinnamon—absolutely comforting and unique. Along the way, we tasted a variety of fresh tropical fruits and a refreshing cold juice blend of passion fruit and mango that was bursting with flavor. One of the highlights was a street vendor serving seafood soup cooked over a wood fire and a rich shrimp rice—authentic and unforgettable. We also enjoyed creamy, flavorful ice cream made from local fruits, and ended with a true Colombian classic: arepa de huevo—crispy, deep-fried, and filled with egg—paired with mote de guineo (cayeye), a delicious green banana mash topped with cheese and chicharrón. Between stops, we explored the historic downtown, seeing some of the oldest buildings in Colombia and South America, which makes sense as Santa Marta is celebrating 501 years of history. Overall, a fantastic, educational tour—you’ll leave full, happy, and with a deeper appreciation for the region’s food and culture. Highly recommended!

We did a street food tour in Santa Marta with Andrés Franco, and all we can say is: it was an absolutely amazing day. Andrés is a true local who shares his city with great passion. He took us to places we would have never discovered as regular tourists. We got to try a wide variety of local foods – everything was authentic and diverse. What really stood out was his enthusiasm and friendliness. He speaks excellent English and didn’t just introduce us to the food, but also to the culture and everyday life in Santa Marta. You can really tell that he loves what he does. Thanks to him, we had an unforgettable experience and gained insights that go far beyond a typical visit to the city. We highly recommend Andrés 100% – an outstanding guide!

We took the half day food tour of Santa Marta while we were docked on our cruise here. Andre was an amazing guide and took some great photos of our group. I found him easy to understand and he tailored the tour for the pace of our group. It was a perfect blend of history and food. Tasting all the fruits that I had never seen before was so much fun. Highly recommend this tour.

An incredible food tasting experience with Mr. juice. Not only did he cut fruit and explain each taste. We had numerous stops for local foods which he described in detail. his explanation of the history of his country showed his love. The best tour I’ve had in a long time.

Great walking food tour in Santa Marta! Our guide was really friendly and kind. He also shared historical information about the country and the city which was very informative. Our guide, Andres, was terrific!

Last minute booking when the weather for a boat trip turned unfavorable - lucky turn of events. Andres was our energetic and knowledgeable guide, who took us to taste ~8 dishes at 5 spots, most of which we would not have noticed or sampled had we been wandering on our own. The highlights included a street vendor, who goes to work at 2:30 am every day to start cooking and buying fresh fish and ingredients, and makes a fish soup and a shrimp rice that were incredible. It was hot and humid, and we were hesitant about eating hot soup in the afternoon, but once we sampled it we could not stop. Also stopped at a fruit stand and tried a variety of tropical fruits, some of which we had never heard of, many of which are not available outside of this area (lulo, zapote, tree tomato, passion fruit, gulupa, guava, sour orange, corozo, mango. Followed with icy fresh fruit juices (lulo, maracumango). Also tried local coffee with cinnamon, arepa de huevo (with fried egg inside), cayeye and chicharrones, and local gelato. We were so stuffed we couldn't finish each course. So glad we did this tour!
