Overview

This private tour from Zebra Fisgona Tours spends three hours at Paloquemao with a local guide and a tasting list that runs past twenty fruits, plus empanadas, Colombian breads, and coffee or tea. Because it is private, only your group takes part. The format suits curious eaters who want a market explained by someone who knows the produce, and the long fruit lineup makes it a good fit for visitors who have never tried most of what is on the stalls.

The walk begins at Mallplaza NQS, in front of the IKEA on the first floor of the mall, and finishes back at the same point. Bottled water is supplied along the way, and the tastings are included in the price. Tour insurance is also covered, and confirmation arrives at the time of booking.

The tour works for families since children can join when accompanied by an adult. Vegetarian options exist, and dietary requirements can be flagged at booking. Anyone hoping to shop for extra goods should budget separately, as additional purchases and tips are not covered.
