ボゴタローカルフードツアー-ラ・カンデラリア

Lina's food tour around La Candelaria was absolutely fantastic. Not only do you get an opportunity to try a variety of foods typical to the area, but Lina is incredibly insightful to local history and culture. I would highly recommend this to anyone visiting Bogotá!

Great tour to get acclimated to Bogota. Lots of interesting cultural tidbits and good variety of typical Colombian food.

From start to finish, our private food tour with La Mesa Food Tours was one of the absolute highlights of our trip to Bogotá. Lina, the owner and our guide, curated a thoughtful, flavorful, and beautifully paced experience. We began with a deep dive into Bogotá’s vibrant market scene, tasting a stunning variety of local fruits — some we’d never even seen before! Lina's knowledge of Colombian produce and culinary traditions was impressive and made every bite more meaningful. From there, we sampled delicious empanadas, and later, enjoyed a comforting bowl of ajiaco, Bogotá’s iconic soup — hearty, flavorful, and absolutely satisfying. But my favorite was probably the stuffed lechon. Every stop felt intentional and well-paced, with generous portions and authentic flavors. By the end, we were stuffed in the best possible way. Lina was engaging, warm, and incredibly informative, offering insights not just into the food but also the history and culture behind it. If you're a curious eater or a passionate traveler, don’t miss this tour. You’ll walk away with a full stomach and a deeper appreciation of Colombia’s culinary richness.

This was an excellent tour and worth the somewhat higher price. The guide was knowledgeable and very friendly. The tour went beyond food and talked about some of the graffiti and history of the area. The variety and quality of food was excellent. We tasted many fruits we had never seen before in our home in California or in our travels.

Lina and Julian were wonderful guides! Very knowledgeable about Bogotá and Colombia - not just when it comes to food but also history and culture. We of course ate great local food as well (nice mix of sweet and savoury). Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful time with Lina at La Mesa Food Tours. She was friendly, punctual, and super knowledgeable about Colombian food, history, and politics. Lina provided the context we needed to really enjoy our vacation in Colombia. We definitely recommend the tours with La Mesa if you want to get the most of your time in Colombia.

Great variety and quantity of food. Lina was very knowledgeable, spoke great English, and offered perfect mix of gastronomy, history and culture.
