What you can expect

  • Your day will start by meeting our local and friendly tour guide in your hotel. With him you will be headed to the first stop in downtown Barranquilla. Once there, you will start a journey across several restaurants where locals will welcome you with the best flavors and stories about their cuisine history and tradition.

    Some of the typical foods you will have the chance to taste are butifarra, kibbes, fritos, and arepa de huevo. Butifarra is a seasoned pork sausage. Kibbes are a famous Lebanese meat dish with a Colombian stamp. Fritos are deep-fried snacks made with yucca, corn flour, green plantain, and lots of cheese. Arepa de huevo (arepa with egg) is one of Colombia’s most traditional dishes. Arepas are eaten almost everywhere in the country in many different versions. On the Caribbean coast, this corn-based tortilla is usually fried and stuffed with a tasty egg.

    You will also visit local food stands to taste and learn about the history of these flavors and the different influences that have made them special and unique. Once the day gets warmer, stop and try fresh drinks and cold appetizers made with their typical fruits and sweets. In the end, you will be driven back to your hotel.
