Tour full of flavors - A tour that immerses you in the daily life of Cali and Colombians through their food. We tried a wide variety of fruits, the valluno tamale, sweet tamale and coffee. The guide Marcela is very attentive, fun and always ready to help us! It is a fun tour full of surprises for the palate.

What a wonderful experience - This was truly one of the best experiences I’ve had on a tour. Marcela, our guide, shared her extensive knowledge of the fruits and typical dishes of the region; she is an expert at what she does. We had the opportunity to learn so much and most importantly, to connect with the culture. What a wonderful experience! And it wasn’t only her knowledge that impacted us, but her kindness with everyone she came across, her beautiful personality shined as we watched everyone welcome her. Lastly, she has a unique ability to personalize the tour so we felt welcomed with her.
I am extremely satisfied with this tour and will highly recommend it. Marcela is fantastic guide and made this tour an unforgettable one!

Very informative tour through Colombias fruits and food - The experience was lovely. Marcella and Julio, our guides for the day, took us through the whole variety of fruits presented in the GalerÃa Almeda in a very enlightening and gentle way. We were also presented with some local dishes which we were able to taste. The hours went by very fast and we are now continuing our journey through Colombia with a much higher level of knowledge as far as fruits and foods are concerned. Thank you very much
