Fun trip through Laureles - Yana is an enthusiastic guide who will take you to various nice addresses in Laureles and in the meantime tells you about life in the city. The amount of food is sufficient but not very extensive.

Perfect day tour - Great experience with David, he is a good story teller weaving in history of the city with food. Recommend for friends, couples, or family (with teens). Bring an umbrella just in case, we got rained on.

Real City Tours has a great selection of tours that made my trip to Medellin special - I booked this tour directly through Real City Tours. There was incredible value in this tour- not simply from the amount of delicious food but the intelligent and lively discussion. One of the BEST tours ever and not to be missed. I could go on and on…

Food and Laureles - David was a great guide. It was as much a history and neighborhood and current politics tour as a food tour, but that made it more memorable.

Delicious and insightful experience in Laureles - I did the Laureles Food Tour on Thursday, June 12th with a group of friends, and it was an absolute highlight of our trip. Our guide, Diana, was amazing: super knowledgeable, kind, and happy to answer all our questions (even the ones that went beyond food!).
We tried so many local snacks and drinks, but what stood out most for me was the Salpicón: a refreshing mix of fruit, cheese, and ice cream that I didn’t expect to love so much. The cultural stories behind the dishes, especially about pork in Colombian cuisine, made the tour not just tasty but truly memorable for me.
If you're curious about Colombian food and want to explore the coolest neighborhood in the world, this tour is a must. Highly recommended for foodies and culture lovers alike.
