The food was delicious and there was a lot of food offered. We left feeling very full and satisfied. We were debating doing a food tour in Poblado or Laureles and we are very happy we chose Laureles. We highly recommend this tour.

Memorable experience - I booked a last minute Food tour with the company and met some of the energetic, easy going bunch of people I've met during my solo trip here in Medellin. The tour guide, Toto was energetic, passionate and proud of the city he grew up in and you can see it in the way he explains what and how the food was made and it's significance to the people of Medellin. Ended the tour/night with laughter; definitely a tour to remember ☺️
Thanks Toto!

So. Much. Food. - If you’re tired of food tours that leave you hungry, look no further. Before the end we were begging Toto to stop feeding us, but the food just kept coming. The portions were so generous and the variety of local fruits and dishes was endless and delicious.
Toto himself is a gem—high energy and great vibes. He makes the tour feel like a stroll with a friend rather than a rigid itinerary. There wasn't a lot of heavy walking, which made for a very laid-back, indulgent afternoon. I cannot recommend this tour—or Toto—highly enough. Come hungry!

The perfect way to experience the city - We tried a lot of different dishes, saw very cool places and discovered the city from a different perspective. Our guide Toto was not only entertaining company but also knowledgeable about the city and happy to answer all our questions about food and culture. He also recommended several places/events to visit during our time in Medellin.

The absolute height of our stay in Medellin! - Our tour was over three hours and we went to some of the most remarkable places. There were seven people total on the tour today besides Susan and I and. Toto was magnificent in his presentation, explanation and the cultural part of the experience. We walked as a group into places that Susan and I might not wander into by ourselves. Uber took us straight to the meeting point and picked us up where we ended up seamlessly. You can’t go wrong with this tour.

A delicious way to learn about Colombia! - My family couldn't speak more highly of this tour and the company as a whole. We had so much fun walking through Laureles and trying all of the delicious food in the area. Our guide, David, was super knowledgeable and fun to spend the afternoon with! We loved the tour so much, we booked another (Barrio Transformation) almost immediately.
What I appreciate most is the way the tour company is dedicated to authentic and culturally-focused education for visitors.
For families considering the tour- do it! My 7yo had a blast and enjoyed eating almost everything (and she's picky)! I

Amazing! - We were lucky to enjoy a tour of Laureles with Diana who was just an amazing tour kind. The restaurants we visited were little gems; what made the tour special was Diana’s knowledge of local food and history. 10 out of 10!
