One of the best tours anyway on the world I have taken. We became friends with the two ladies that operate the tour company. I would highly advise using them for anything in the bogota and surrounding area. They are knowledgeable about the entire area. Also, they showed us the area where all the fire arms recovered as part of the peace treaty was melted and now on display.

If you consider a guided tour of Paloquemao Farmer's Market tour in Bogota, look no further than Zebra Fisgona Tours. This company owned by Alejandra and Juanita will give you the best experience ever. They personally conduct their tours. My sister and I did this tour with Aleja and this was one of the highlights of Bogota. Aleja started our tour by taking us to a coffee shop across from the market where we had excellent cappuccinos and got to know each other. We then went to the market where we started in the flowers section. Colombia is the second biggest exporter of flowers in the world, after the Netherlands. Then Aleja stopped at a bread shop, Pandebonitos de la Virgen where she bought us 3 different types of bread and 3 different drinks to sample. This was the best pan de bono we had in all of Colombia. After this we moved into the fruit and vegetable part of the market where we tasted more than 20 fruits, some of it known to us, some totally unknown. We took lots of photos and Aleja even sent us a list of the fruit with Spanish names and pictures so that we could identify them afterwards on our photos. We also walked through the meat and fish sections which were very clean and she bought us arepas to taste. After this incredible tour she and her driver took us back to our apartment where she left her bicycle in the morning. Before heading home she first walked with us to show us the nearest supermarket to our apartment. She did so many extra things for us, not only on this day but also on the days we took other tours with her. She helped us with arrangements for the rest of our Colombia-tour which we could not expect from her. She even stored our luggage in her apartment while we visited the Amazon and unbelievably she even drove to our apartment to pick up our luggage and dropped it of again when we came back, without asking us anything. She and Juanita are really two amazing people. First check out all the Bogota tours Zebra Fisgona Tours has on offer, before you decide to book anything else. You will not be disappointed.

I recently embarked on the fruit market tour with Aleja and her business partner, an experience that turned out to be one of my highlights of my visit to Bogota. Discovering their tour through Viator and opting to book directly on their website proved not only cost-effective but also facilitated direct communication with Aleja.
Starting the morning with a cup of coffee set the perfect tone for our exploration. The early 8 am kickoff at Paloquemao Farmers Market was a strategic choice, allowing us to navigate the bustling market with fewer crowds. The tour unfolded with a delightful array of traditional Colombian breads, a generous serving of Arepa, and a fascinating showcase of over 15 exotic fruits, some of which were entirely new to me. The culinary journey concluded with scrumptious empanadas and a satisfying cup of coffee.
What made this experience truly exceptional was the genuine dedication of our tour guides. Aleja and her partner took their time, offering intricate details about the fruits' origins, names, and additional anecdotes. Their willingness to answer questions and the warm, personable approach made the tour not just informative but genuinely enjoyable.
This fruit market tour emerged as my favorite in Bogota, providing a unique and immersive experience that surpassed what we could have achieved independently. If you're visiting Bogota and want to delve into the richness of its fruit market, Aleja's tour is an absolute must. The personalized touch and in-depth insights guarantee an unforgettable adventure that goes beyond the ordinary.

Book the fruit market tour, you won't regret it! Aleja was the best tour guide, extremely friendly. Very knowledgeable about the fruit but also Colombian history. Fruit was delicious. We opted for the transportation option and it was perfect. Would recommend to anyone visiting Colombia.

I thoroughly enjoyed the Bogota farmer’s market tour with Alejandra! It was so much fun to walk around and try delicious coffee, epanadas and all the different amazing fruits . Plus, it was great to have a local experience! Alejandra was so friendly and knowledgeable - the tour was definitely one of the highlights of my trip! I’m only sorry that this was my last day in Bogota - I would have done another tour with her in a heartbeat!

One of the best ways to know about the city and the market!
The tour was amazing, with lots of information to catch and fruits to taste. It was fascinating for us to know the name and taste of the fruits and understand how to select them. If one goes early on the day, it is also possible to see some exotic flowers in the parking lot.
The tour guides are welcoming and charming, always ensuring that you are having a great time during the trip.
It was a great experience overall.
Excelente format de conocer acerca de la ciudad y de la plaza de mercado.
El recorrido frece mucha information e incredible frutas para probar y conocer, no solo el nombre de las frutas pere tambien aprender como seleccionarlas. Si see visita la plaza temprano es possible ver flores exoticas en el parqueadero.
Los guias son increibles y atentos procurando siempre por el bienestar de los turistas.
Sobre todo due una gran experiencia.
