    A true highlight of Quito

    This was one of my favorite experiences in Quito. Santi is incredibly engaging, artistic, and genuinely passionate about sharing his city. If you’re interested in culture, street art, local stories, and hidden gems, this tour is outstanding. I especially loved exploring La Floresta, discovering the murals and galleries, and ending the evening on the gallery’s rooftop terrace with a beautiful sunset view over the city. It felt authentic, creative, and thoughtfully curated. As for the review saying it wasn’t a food tour—I think they simply didn’t read the tour description. It’s clearly centered around art, culture, and the neighborhood, with regional bites as part of the experience, not a multi-stop foodie crawl. Highly recommend this tour if you’re looking for something beyond the typical sightseeing itinerary. Santi made the evening memorable.

    Authentic art and food experience

    Pamela's local knowledge of street art and the local food scene was amazing, she took me to some delicious places and we tried some excellent dishes. Highlight was the Corviche!

    Don’t call it after dark food walk - it is not

    I enjoyed walking through La floreasta looking at the graffiti and being taken to a shop selling pictures but I don’t appreciate this being a sales pitch. Also tackling it a foodie trip is cutting it a bit fine!! Went to three food cafes all we had was yuca done in three different ways - a sausage and this was based on the tour guides predilections - he loved his food grabbed food , ate quickly questioned my eating, this was certainly not worth the money. And there was only one cocktail which was nice in a cute cafe. And having to wait for Ubers in the pouring rain. And no other attendees only me. It was quite frankly awful!!

    Response from the operator: Hi Susan, We really appreciate you took the time to share your thoughts, it helps us to continuously improve our experiences. Please let us know if we can invite you to another one of our tours for free and we´ll surely make it up to you. Thanks again, The Bondabu team.

    Quintessential Quito

    Wonderful evening. Santiago was extremely engaging, knowledgeable and eager to share this special Quito neighborhood. We loved the street murals and gallery visit as well as the delicious regional bites. Santiago’s extensive travel experience reflects a compassion and perspective beyond his years. We highly recommend this tour.

    Quito after-dark street food tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Quito.

    How much does Quito after-dark street food tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $100 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Quito usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Quito after-dark street food tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 2.5 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 Quito is not rushed.

    Is Quito after-dark street food tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 60 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Quito, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Quito after-dark street food tour?

    +

    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 Quito after-dark street food tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Quito after-dark street food tour?

    +

    Around 21 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 Quito 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 Quito and add a light layer if any part of the 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Quito after-dark street food tour 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 Quito 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 Quito?

    +

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 Quito?

    +

    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 Quito?

    +

    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.
