Loved this delicious tour!
My expectations for this tour weren’t very high, but my wife wanted to do it. Good thing too- it was really amazing! We tried well over 20 different fruits as well as a variety of local snacks and drinks along the way. We’re not talking about bananas and pineapples here - we’re talking about tropical, unique fruit that you can’t get in most places. For most of these fruits, I didn’t even see them in the Colombian grocery stores! So much fun! David was an awesome guide - explaining not just the fruits and markets, but also the history of Colombia and Medellin. We felt very fortunate to do this…it was much more than just a market tour. Recommendation- do not eat before this tour!

Fruit Market make sure you try the Avocado
The fruit markets are definitely a wonderful morning treat! Our tour guide Luis showed us many vendors and many types of fruit and other wares. Go with plenty of room to eat, because trying as many new things as possible is the best part of the experience. Seeing all three markets also gives a great tour of the city and its history, our tour guide Luis knew how to tell the story of how things work now as well as their past.

Interesting tour of markets
Luis, our guide, was incredibly thoughtful, kind, and calm. The traffic was horrible yet Luis never lost his patience. The markets were extremely interesting and it was amazing to see the amounts of food that move from the largest markets to the smaller ones. We got to sample delicious fruits and fruit juices.

Medellín: Local Fruit and Market Places Tour with transportation: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Medellín.
How much does Medellín: Local Fruit and Market Places Tour with transportation cost?
+
Prices start at $99 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Medellín usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Medellín: Local Fruit and Market Places Tour with transportation take?
+
Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Medellín is not rushed.
Is Medellín: Local Fruit and Market Places Tour with transportation worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 60 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Medellín, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Medellín: Local Fruit and Market Places Tour with transportation?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Medellín: Local Fruit and Market Places Tour with transportation suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Medellín: Local Fruit and Market Places Tour with transportation?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Medellín can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Medellín and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Medellín: Local Fruit and Market Places Tour with transportation start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Medellín within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Medellín?
+
On Outty we rank every Medellín experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Guatapé Tour: Piedra del Peñol with Boat Tour, Breakfast, Lunch, Comuna 13 Graffiti Tour with Street Food, More than Escobar Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Medellín?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Medellín?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
