Quito gastronomic walking tour: Tastings and colonial churchesA gastronomic and cultural walking tour of Quito's historic center with a live guide in English or Spanish, taking in the Basilica of the National Vow, San Francisco Church, Independence Plaza and the Church of the Society of Jesus while tasting local empanadas, chocolate, traditional sweets and canelazo. Children from age 3 are welcome; the route suits all fitness levels.Is it for me?Book this tour if you're new to Quito and want to see the colonial center without building the day yourself—the guide connects the churches, the food stops and the history so the afternoon holds together as one story instead of a list of sites.
Quito: Cooking Class & Central Market Tour with PickupYou’ll wander Quito’s Central Market with a local guide, pick out fresh ingredients from friendly vendors, then cook classic Ecuadorian dishes inside a colonial home kitchen. Expect hands-on help from your chef host and plenty of stories along the way — plus a long lunch where you get to taste everything you made together.
Quito Street Food Tour: Hole-in-the-wall stands & local recipesYou’ll wander Quito’s real streets with a local guide who knows every shortcut and snack stall. Taste hot empanadas, exotic fruits, seafood bites, and finish with Ecuadorian chocolate and cocktails. Expect laughter, new flavors, and glimpses into everyday life most travelers miss.
Quito Old Town: Walking Tour with Church History & Local Food TastingsYou walk through Quito's colonial center visiting four major churches — the golden Jesuit baroque, the oldest church with South America's first brewery underneath, the Gothic Basilica, and the Independence Plaza where the city's history is written in the buildings around you. Local food tastings are included, and if you visit Monday through Friday, you climb to the roof of Ecuador's first university for a view that ties the whole morning together.Is it for me?Right for travelers who want to understand Quito's colonial architecture and history through the buildings themselves, not just walk past them — the churches are the story, and the food tastings ground it in the city's everyday life. The walk covers cobblestones and involves climbing, so plan for steady legs and comfortable shoes.
3 Hours Local Food Tour in Quito: Huecas Street EatingA 3-hour guided food tour in Quito that takes you into huecas—family-owned eateries where locals eat—to taste dishes and hear the stories behind them straight from the people who cook. The guide leads a small group on foot through neighborhoods where the food is real and the payment goes directly to the kitchen, building an understanding of Quito's culture through what people actually eat every day.Is it for me?You order and pay at each stop as you go, which means you're learning to navigate Quito's food culture the way someone who lives here does—making real choices instead of following a preset menu. This suits anyone who wants to eat like a local and understand a place through the people who feed it, rather than collect a tasting experience.
Quito Old Town: Food & Culture Walking Tour with ChocolateYou’ll stroll Quito’s historic center with a local guide, tasting Ecuadorian chocolate and fresh empanadas along cobbled streets. Explore iconic churches like La Compañía de Jesús and San Francisco Church, soak up lively plazas, and share laughs over food stories. This walk leaves you feeling like you’ve seen more than just buildings—you’ve felt the city breathe.
