Tour description

Welcome to the Sultana del Valle, immerse yourself in the best food market in Cali!

The gastronomic diversity of the Cauca Valley is highly appreciated in the country for its unique flavors such as Tamal Valluno, Pandebono, Viche, Manjar and exotic fruit juices (such as Borojó)!


From the Alameda Park we will visit the Alameda Market passing by stalls selling homemade food such as Champús and Cucas made by women from Cali . This is the best way to start understanding how important our identity is through our gastronomy.

Between Afro preparations and European flavours, get a glimpse of the local culture and way of life. The market is home to hundreds of vendors selling everything from fresh produce to clothing, crafts and household items .


Try traditional Pacific food and toast with Viche , our amazing alcoholic beverage!

This experience brings you closer to the flavours, colours, textures and regional gastronomic preparations, which are loaded with symbols and meanings, as they reveal social relations, popular imaginations and the use of the environment.

We will talk about:

  • History and origins of our regional gastronomy
  • Cultural influences of local races.
  • Unique and useful preparations.
  • Ancestral ingredients and traditional techniques from the region.
  • The food market as a core of economic survival
  • Biological, geographical and cultural diversity of the Cauca Valley
  • Sweet, salty, oily, spicy and vigorous food
  • And much more!


Join this experience with our team of local guides who, in addition to all the knowledge that we will share with you about the local gastronomy inherited from our families, will visit authentic places to eat inside the market as well as recommendations of local shops to have lunch , buy coffee, souvenirs and more in case you want to return on your own!

We are authentic guides connecting Colombia since 2013, 12 years sharing passion in every step!
