About this experience

Join our food-obsessed (and fully licensed) local guide on a feasting extravaganza through the streets of downtown. Stop en-route to sample around 13+ different tastings including exotic fruits, lechona (roasted suckling pig), ajiaco soup, tamale at an historic bakery, Colombian sweet desserts and much, much more. Visit a truly local chicheria. Later play a round of explosive tejo, Colombian's national pastime - all washed down with a local beverage. Sign off the tour with an immersive coffee workshop to get to grips with why Colombia roasts some of the finest beans in the world.

What you'll see and do
Bogota
Our first stop is La Perseverancia Market, learning about exotic fruits with a food obsessed guide. Then we'll dive into a truly local chicheria. For carnivores, there's no happier place than the next hole-in-the-wall eatery, which does nothing more than lechona - stuffed suckling pig with crunchy, golden skin. Your taste buds are going to thank us later, when you then savour the innovative twists of ajiaco soup. Continue winding through the streets of old town, and try buñuelos, a deep-fried doughnut-like pastry. We'll next play a round of tejo, Colombian's rather explosive national pastime, all washed down with a cold beer (or juice!). Then we'll jump into one more seriously historic restaurant which has been serving hungry locals for 200+ years. Tuck into steamy leaf-wrapped tamale, with frothy hot chocolate. Sounds like an odd combo? It's good. Trust us.

Over the course of the tour you'll have a rich understanding of our food culture - with 13+ tastings, and the guidance of a local expert who is a bonified foodie! Sign off with a coffee workshop to find out why this country roasts some of the finest beans in the world. The tour ends at Casa Magola cafe, along Carrerra 3. It's a short walk from the Museo Botero and the Plaza de Bolívar in the popular La Candelaria district. Your guide can help you find transport back to your hotel if you wish.

Why this scores 92
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Viejo Bogota Food Tour with 12+ Tastings: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Bogotá.
How much does Viejo Bogota Food Tour with 12+ Tastings cost?
+
Prices start at $28 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Bogotá usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Viejo Bogota Food Tour with 12+ Tastings 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 Bogotá is not rushed.
Is Viejo Bogota Food Tour with 12+ Tastings worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 92 out of 100, which we label "90+ Club". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 664 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Bogotá, and how flexible the cancellation terms are. Scoring 90 or above puts it in the Outty 90+ Club, the top tier of everything we rank.
Can I cancel or reschedule Viejo Bogota Food Tour with 12+ Tastings?
+
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 Viejo Bogota Food Tour with 12+ Tastings 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 Viejo Bogota Food Tour with 12+ Tastings?
+
Around 232 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 Bogotá 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 Bogotá and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Viejo Bogota Food Tour with 12+ Tastings 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 Bogotá 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 Bogotá?
+
On Outty we rank every Bogotá experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Private City Tour Bogota + Monserrate, Gold, Botero and Candelaria., Free Graffiti Walking Tour Every Day in Bogota, Bogota Zipaquira Salt Cathedral Private Tour + Lunch. 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 Bogotá?
+
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 Bogotá?
+
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.
