Free Food Tour of Bogotá

This three-hour walk through the historic center pairs storytelling with tasting — expect stops built around ajiaco, Bogotá's signature chicken, corn and potato soup, alongside arepas, empanadas and some of the exotic Andean fruits that never make it past South America. Your guide explains where each dish comes from and how it fits into Colombian food culture, from indigenous staples to Spanish colonial influences.

The tour itself is free, but note that food and drink tastings along the way are paid directly by each guest to the vendors — it's part of what keeps the stops varied and the small businesses supported. Bring a bit of cash and an appetite.
