Meeting Spot

Bogotá sits high in the Andes, on a savanna the Muisca farmed for centuries before the Spanish arrived. Our Bogotá food tour walks you through La Candelaria, the oldest part of the city, and tells its whole history through what you eat.&nbsp;You'll start in a working market with a syrup-cooked fig and a tasting of fruit most people outside South America have never seen. From there, a local guide who lives in Bogotá leads you through the streets and plazas of the old center, one bite at a time: the corn the Muisca grew, turned into a leaf-steamed tamal, a fermented drink this city once tried to ban, and a griddled arepa. You'll try coca tea and finally hear the truth about the leaf, then warm up over ajiaco, the potato soup Bogotanos adore like family.&nbsp;Along the way your guide fills in the parts a map leaves out: the plaza where the city was founded, the Indigenous people who were here first, and the murals painted across whole buildings and the fight it took to make them legal. This is the context you can only get from a local guide who knows the food and the history behind it.&nbsp;We finish with Colombian coffee brewed in front of you at a working barista school, and the story of how the country learned to keep its own best beans.&nbsp;Somewhere in the tour, we'll also hand you a secret dessert dish we reveal only on the day. It is a local favourite, and pulls the whole city together in a single bite.

What you'll do

Due to the nature of creating a well balanced and thoughtful gastronomy experience, many of our tours are unable to accommodate certain dietary restrictions. Please <a href="mailto:paris@secrettours.com">contact us</a> prior to booking your tour to see if we are able to accommodate your dietary needs.

What You'll Taste

La Candelaria is where Bogotá started, and it's still the oldest part of the city: cobbled lanes and low colonial houses stacked against the green mountains, wrapped around the little plaza where the Spanish founded the capital in 1538, on ground the Muisca had lived on for centuries before.&nbsp;What we love about it is how close everything sits. The market feeding this neighborhood for almost a hundred years is a few minutes from the founding plaza. A man pours fermented corn from his own front room, around the corner from students, street art three stories tall, and a working barista school. You eat your way from a five-hundred-year-old square to a fresh cup of coffee without getting in a car. Not much of Bogotá holds this much of the city's soul in a handful of walkable blocks.

Why La Candelaria?
