We had an amazing food tour in Cartagena and can’t recommend it enough! Yeimy and her colleague were absolutely fantastic—so bubbly, funny, and full of energy. They made the entire experience fun, engaging, and incredibly informative. We tasted so many delicious local foods—fresh local fruits, coconut water, cheese snacks, coffee, arepas, plantains with fresh cheese, tajadas, and more. Every stop felt authentic and thoughtfully chosen, and we loved learning about the culture and history behind the food. Beyond the food, the tour also took us through the walled city, local shopping areas, and Getsemaní, giving us a wonderful feel for the city’s vibe and history. Overall, this tour was the perfect mix of food, culture, and fun. We had such a great time and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Cartagena!

Great Food Tour in Cartagena

Joseph_S, Jun 2026

This was a great experience and well worth the price. My guide, Shay, was amazing and took me around to a lot of different street food spots in Getsemani and the Walled City. The food was delicious, and Shay was very knowledgeable about the history and culture of the food. I also appreciate that they were able to accommodate an earlier tour time since I had a flight later that day.
