Overview

This three-hour tour, run by Impulse Travel, spends its entire time at Plaza de Mercado Paloquemao, described in the listing as the best food market in Bogota. A local-market expert guide, working in English or Spanish, leads the visit. Meals specified in the description are included, and the operator puts part of the fee back into the merchant community around the market. You also receive a local souvenir to take home.

Hotel pick-up and drop-off in Bogota is part of the package, so there is no need to arrange your own way to the market. Groups are capped at eight people, and the only clothing advice the listing gives is to wear comfortable clothes.

The tour is recommended for children aged twelve and up and adults. It does not run on Sundays, and anyone with dietary restrictions should advise them at the time of booking. Confirmation arrives when you book, and most travellers can participate. If the weather is poor enough to cancel the experience, you are offered a different date or a full refund.

What To Expect From The Tour

What to wear. The listing asks for comfortable clothes. That is the only clothing guidance given.
Small group. The tour runs with a maximum of eight travellers. Groups will not exceed that number.
Food included. Meals specified in the description are covered, along with a local souvenir. Anything you buy beyond that, such as food or drinks not specified, is at your own cost.
Dietary needs. Specific dietary restrictions should be advised at the time of booking. The listing asks for this when you reserve.
Getting there. Hotel pickup and drop-off in Bogota are included. You do not need to arrange your own transport to the market.
Weather dependency. The experience requires good weather. If the operator cancels for poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.

Common issues. The tour is not wheelchair accessible, though it is near public transportation. It does not operate on Sundays, so plan around that when choosing a date. Children under twelve are not the target audience; the listing recommends the tour for those twelve and older. Cancellations made less than 24 hours before the start time receive no refund, and the experience requires good weather.
