    The perfect taste of Cali

    Christina_T, Feb 2026
    We had such a fun morning with Alex as he walked us through the streets of Cali and eventually to the Alameda Market. Not only did we get to try some amazing local snacks and produce, we also had more than the equivalent of a full meal with other traditional meat dishes. Alex was a great teacher about the culture and history of Cali, and gave great recommendations for other activities and nightlife. Thank you for such a fun day, Alex!!

    Street food and local knowledge

    Hamlin_L, Jan 2026
    The tour started with a one hour walk around some less touristy neighbourhoods of Cali. The street food tasting had a great variety including seafood, exotic fruits, tamales, local corn dishes, coffees, drinks and much more.

    Excellent street food tour

    Ron_P, Jan 2025
    Nice walk through a community that most tourists may not know about or visit. Lots of information and food treats along the way. Finishing at a huge food market with even more samples. Go hungry. Recommended.

    TOUR OPERATOR NEVER SHOWED UP

    gordon_b, Jul 2024
    After making my way to relatively out of the way location on time, no one ever arrived. Not enjoyable wasting valuable time and $ when travelling.

    Response from Host, Jul 2024

    I’m sorry to hear you missed the tour and wasted time and money. We did offer the tour on the day of your reservation and don’t understand how we could have missed you.

    Book It! Great price and guide and short and sweet!

    Tony_M, Jun 2024
    Quite possibly the best $21 I've spent in my life. Tons of food and great walking tour through parts I would have never stumbled upon. Great tour guide (with the dreads).

    Response from Host, Jul 2024

    Thanks for the review. Good to hear you. enjoyed the tour.

    Great way to explore the city

    Ajit_N, May 2024
    This is a great way to not only explore the food scenes of Cali but also the city on the whole. Carlos is a brilliant host who took us around, shared some history and made us experience some of the most delightful dishes and fruits of Cali. Do not miss this one!!!

    A must-try in Cali

    Shannon_O, Mar 2024
    Our guide Carlos was extremely knowledgeable, patient and friendly. We tried so many delicious fruits and savory foods, and enjoyed great views of the city!

    Response from Host, Mar 2024

    Thanks for coming! Greetings from Carlos.

    More than just food!

    Amber_N, Feb 2024
    The group size was perfect, just 5 people. And it was more than just food, the routes between stops we'd see street murals, some statues, and talked about the history of murals in Cali. All the food was amazing, and it was nice to be able to try so many dishes and split it - so you could try a little bit of everything (and you didn't have too much of anything if it wasn't to your taste). It was a lot of walking, so wear comfortable shoes.

    Thanks for coming. I'm glad that you liked the tour!

    Great flavors, good tour and Viche

    Thaddeus_H, Dec 2023
    Had a wonderful experience and tasted my way around Cali. Got to see many parts of Cali I would not have know to visit. The tour was at a good pace and was interesting. Food was traditional and tasty. Best of all, I found some Viche to drink.

    Thanks for the review. I'm glad you enjoyed the tour.

    The best food tour

    Estella_S, Sep 2023
    This has been the best food tour by far. The tour guide was polite, respectful, knowledgeable, and entertaining. We tried so many things and I didn’t expect to get full. I love the different foreign fruits. We tried some breads, cheeses, tamales, yuca, and a few drinks. Overall a 10 out of 10 experience

    Response from Host, Oct 2023

    This was a very enjoyable experience. Our guide, Mario, was fantastic. I learned quite a bit about the local food scene and was really pleased with the selection of places that we visited.

    Lots of walking and lots of food

    Chuck_L, Jan 2023
    Alex was lots of fun. There was a great deal of food. I think I ate more food than the $17 I paid for the tour. Lots of walking involved and I think the average age was 21. A lot of students staying in hospitals. I am 72 years old. They were very nice to me. Lots and lots of fruit. Alex also explain some of the history of the city. There are very few tours in Cali, so this was fun.
