Delicious and educational - It was a wonderful experience. We learned a lot about the indigenous culture of the area. The guide was very informative and connected all of food back to its native roots. The food was good and we were full by the end.

Natalia (Nat) is a fantastic guide! - Natalia was my guide and she was fantastic. Very personable and her English was very good. She even taught me quite a few new Spanish words. We walked the La Candelaria area and we stopped in many spots to get the feeling of the historic area of Bogota. I don't think I would have enjoyed it as much if I didn't do this tour. I would recommend this for any first time visitor of Bogota. It is well worth it Advice: the morning timeslot has smaller group than the afternoon.
