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 Barrranquilla. 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, fritos and arepa. Butifarra, a seasoned pork sausage. Kibbes, the famous meat dish from Lebanon with its Colombian stamp. Fritos: all kind of deep-fried snacks made with yucca, corn flour, green plantain, and lots of cheese. And arepa de huevo (Arepa with egg): arepa is one of the most traditional Colombian plates. Eaten almost everywhere in the country in lots of different versions. In 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.
