What you'll do

Get a taste of the cultural melting pot of Bagotá on a trip that tickles your taste buds, like a surprising sip of hot chocolate and cheese in city center, or a bite of breakfast goodness wrapped in banana leaves. No trip to the capital is complete without signature dish ajiaco soup or popping to an overflowing farmer's market for a bite of refreshing tropical fruit. Next, escape to one of the oldest markets in the city for a helping of fish soup rumored to give boundless energy, and a bite of staple corn tortillas-like arepas. Indulge in a scoop of ground-cherry gelato and a sip of hand-poured coffee with a kick, before heading off the tourist track to artsy quarter La Macarena for a tableful of tapas paired with plenty of the fruity house sangria.

Where you’ll go

Start your sizzling adventure in the city's heart; wander along narrow streets off the Plaza Bolivar to tiny culinary gem La Puerta Falsa, warming hearts with hot drinks for centuries, and rub shoulders with locals at family-owned Sopas de Mamá, home to the city-famous soup. Venture past industrial Bogotá to the Paloquemao market, overflowing with tropical fruit and farmers navigating tiny aisles, before hopping to a spot known as the gastronomic symbol of Colombia. Find a hidden gelato gem and café reclaiming Colombian coffee, before heading on a flair-filled trip to barrio La Macarena, abutted with green hills and bohemian charm. There, pop into unpretentious four-tables-only Tapas Macarena, and keep the charcuterie coming and the sangria flowing.
