Free Food Tour Quito

All tours are suspended until further notice due to government’s regulations

Ecuadorian food is a mix of the three great civilizations which have inhabited the area over time: The ancestral, the Inca, and the Spanish. Join our free Quito Food Tour and journey through the essence of the millenary gastronomy of the Andes!

In Ecuador, the sun is closer to the ground as it is on the Equator, and so this proximity can change the DNA of fruits and vegetables, producing the most nutritious and tastiest harvests in the world. Visit the Mercado de San Francisco, the oldest in the city, and try some delicious juices and milkshakes with exotic fruits unique to this land. 

Taste Quito’s best Seco de Chivo (goat stew) in a traditional restaurant near the Metropolitan Cathedral. Enjoy a tasty Chucchucara with pork fritada, one of the most popular dishes in Ecuador, as you admire the best views of the city!

On our Quito Food Tour you will explore the most delicious and tastiest side to the city, eat like the Quiteños do, try their best traditional dishes and beverages, and learn about a gastronomic tradition that’s rooted in the heights of the Andes mountains and bathed by the equatorial sun.
