Quito has a rich culinary history, but most skip over it. Along with a local tastemaker guide, you'll experience the city in the afternoon and evening moving from the historic centre to the neighbourhood of La Floresta, an area known for it's street eats.

With 14+ tastings across multiple stops, the tour is an authentic look at Quito's local food scene. This isn't about fine dining. Expect everything from corn-based dishes and plantain snacks to different styles of pork, hearty soups, and grilled meats.

The setting is a key part of the experience. Visiting these neighbourhoods at night means seeing them at their most active, when stalls are busy and the atmosphere is at its most local.

Led by a knowledgeable tastemaker guide, and in small groups limited to just 8 guests, this is a delicious crash course in the city's food scene.

Quito

Quito food tour offers guests a culinary experience carefully curated food adventure, led by the team of Quito tastemakers. Before we get started, our tour reflects the local cuisine, and the limitations of street food vendors and local eateries mean we cannot cater for every dietary restriction. Here's an honest appraisal for the tour, so no-one is disappointed: ✘ Unsuitable for vegetarian, vegan, pescatarian, halal diets, lactose intolerance and severe allergies as the number of tastings would be very limited. ✔ No pork diets, gluten intolerance, mild tree nut / peanut allergies and no seafood diets are possible though some tastings do not have alternatives available and the menu would be more limited.

As the tour continues, you’ll explore corn-based staples like tigrillo, humita, and empanadas made from morocho and green plantain, alongside street favourites like toasted corn with chicharrón and pan de maíz.

    We did a tour with Ibeth in Quito and I have to say it was one of the best experiences in my life. She was so kind and considerate. She told us about the history of Quito and took us to the most wonderful local places- Always asking if we felt OK and asking how we liked the dish. She complimented us constantly and really gave us one of the best experiences we have ever ever had! When dealing with the booking part, Luka was seriously amazing. Just a few emails we shared, he seems like one of the nicest people ever. This really made our vacation!
