I try and do.food tours wherever I travel and this was definitely one of the best. Karen was a fantastic guide, with a great energy and desire to tell us all about Cartagena and Colombia. We tasted a great selection of dishes, from seafood to arepas, to sweets to frutis, and local beverages. She also took us to parts we may not have visited.had we not done this tour. Highly recommend for groups and anyone interested in tasting local dishes!

Wonderful communication with Wendy pre tour which helped us tremendously. Wendy even changed her usual meeting point to collect us in a taxi at the port . I needed a sewing alteration and she was able to sort this out during the tour . What great service !!! A thoughtful enthusiastic person who kept us engaged all through the tour . The food and drink were really good too . Would recommend Wendy highly .

Best guide and tour in Cartagena
Our food tour was fantastic. Even before it started, Karen was in contact multiple times. The meeting point was easy and very close to our first few stops. We had 10 different food and beverage tastings and each were a treat. We have taken hundreds of tours all over the world and can honestly say that Karen and her food tour are up at the top of our list.
