We specialize in designing exclusive, personalized city food tours in San Jose that will take you from the roots of Costa Rican traditional cuisine to modern, original food creations. Signature dishes by the best local chefs! We offer mainly city or urban food tours in San Jose, but we have a couple of day trips from San Jose to rural areas where you can experience traditional gastronomy and learn about agriculture, like pineapple fields, cacao, coffee, etc.

My husband and I had an outstanding experience on this food tour. We have done food tours all over the world and this one rates at the top. We received personalized attention from the owner Adriana at the start of the tour and she continued to monitor our experience throughout the evening. Eva, our guide, was extremely knowledgeable on every subject matter including the food and drink and she was very warm and engaging. Last but not least, the food and drink were high quality and delicious and the choice of restaurants and bars were spot on. We would highly recommend this tour!

We had a fantastic time touring Barrio Escalante and learning about the neighborhood and Costa Rican culture and history from our guide Oscar. Oscar is a really great guide for this tour, and we felt like old friends by the time it was over. We really enjoyed each of the four stops, with fantastic drinks and dishes at each location. Highly recommend if you are a foodie!
