About this activity

Explore the innovative soul of the Aburrá Valley on our El Poblado Food Tour. We begin at the historic Parque del Poblado, the city's 1616 birthplace, sampling golden crunchy patacones. As we walk, your guide shares the story of Medellín’s transformation from a colonial outpost into a global capital of innovation.

The experience dives into regional heritage with the iconic Bandeja Paisa and a soul-warming bowl of Mondongo. You will learn about the resilient "Berraco" spirit of the Paisa people, seeing how the community’s strength is reflected in its robust gastronomy. These traditional flavors offer a window into the heart of Antioquian hospitality.

We conclude in the trendy districts of Provenza and Manila, balancing the past with a cosmopolitan future. You’ll enjoy sweet Arepas de Chócolo and world-class coffee before we reveal our delicious Secret Dish!
