Nadine Braehmer • July 30, 2025

When you think of Medellín, vibrant colors, warm locals, breathtaking views, and a thriving food scene probably come to mind. But if you really want to taste the heart of this city, there’s one experience you simply can’t miss: a local food tour in Medellín.

Discover the Real Medellín With Us — One Bite at a Time

Far from the crowded tourist zones, the neighborhood of Laureles offers an authentic look at daily life in Medellín — and it’s bursting with culinary gems that locals love. That’s exactly why we chose Laureles as the home base for our Medellín food tour. It’s where tradition, flavor, and culture come together.


This isn’t just about food — it’s a full cultural immersion. You’ll hear stories, meet locals, and walk through leafy streets full of character — all with a local expert by your side.



Meet Raymond — The Guide Everyone Loves

Our guide Raymond isn’t just knowledgeable — he’s unforgettable. Charismatic, passionate, and deeply connected to the community, Raymond brings the streets of Laureles to life. With glowing reviews and returning guests, he's one of the reasons this tour has quickly become a top seller.



Why This Food Tour Is Different:

  • 4 tours daily – Morning, afternoon, and evening slots to fit your schedule
  • Tastings you won’t find elsewhere – From arepas and empanadas to exotic fruits and local drinks
  • A real local experience – No tourist traps, no gimmicks
  • Intimate group sizes – So you can really connect



Perfect for Foodies, Culture-Lovers, and First-Time Visitors

Whether it’s your first time in Medellín or your fifth, this tour is for you. It’s the ideal way to discover the soul of the city while tasting its best flavors.
