Cartagena Food Adventure: 10 Dishes, Street Food & Sit-Down stops

About this activity

A tale of two Cartagenas in one culinary experience: Street food and street art of Getsemaní, then proper sit-down stops inside the Walled City for Fusion Caribbean cuisine; 10+ dishes & drinks feast.

Led by an expert Sherpa, your journey begins in the colorful, bohemian streets of Getsemaní, where street art tells stories of resistance and reinvention. From there, we cross into the Ciudad Amurallada (Walled City), the heart of the Caribbean, finishing inside the ancient walls.

You'll sit down at two standout local restaurants for curated tastings of signature Cartagenero dishes and new Caribbean Fusion cuisine. Between them, taste exotic fruits from the iconic Palenqueras, the must-try arepa de huevo, a sweet stop at the historic Portal de los Dulces.

It's not just a food tour. It's the Sherpa Way: woven with the history, culture, and street art that make Cartagena one of Latin America's most vibrant food destinations.
