Bogota food tour
Join our Bogota food tour curated by a leading Colombian food historian in to get to the bottom of what the city's food scene is all about.
Kicking off at a bustling local market as lunch hour starts, you will dive into the best ajiaco in the city. Later you will dig into the magical world of lechona (that’s roasted suckling pig to me and you) as well as more than eight more dishes as snacks as you wander from the modern downtown area to the historic old city.
Stop en route for an explosive game of tejo - Colombia's national sport which involves hurling metal pucks and packets of gunpower. Then sign off with an immersive coffee workshop tasting several different beans, watch different steeping techniques and understand why the country grows, roasts and brews some of the best cups of joe on Earth. Get ready for Bogota's best food tour.
