We had a great tour with Flávio who was a very knowledgeable guide. He encouraged us to taste a ton of local food and told us all about it. We loved hearing about life in Cuenca as well as the history of the city. The only thing I would say is it’s probably best to do in the day as more street food stands will be open but we still had a great time. Thank you Flávio!

We had a fabulous guide Flavio he gave us so much information on the city and it's history my head was buzzing, in a good way. We started in the market with some amazing freshly made fruit juices accompanied by some local food one of which we liked and the other I would ten as interesting , but that is what food tours are about trying something you wouldn't normally eat! Flavio gave as an insight into the French influence on food and bread and how it came about, he also gave photo tips and my iPhone photography has improved considerably, we explored the key locations and the architecture and history A highlight was the visit to the Panama hat factory, we had planned to go on our own, but this was so much better as Flavio brought it alive and we now understand why a hat can be a few hundred dollars to a few thousand, the view from the coffee shop on the top floor is also something to see. We stopped for sweets as well , which were delicious , I did buy a couple more :) there was a delicious coffee stop as well. I would recommend this tour as a great starting point to get a feel for the city and it's food, we did it on our first morning .

A surprise. The Cuencan restaurant scene is slowly recovering from Covid. There is no finer example of this than a new Japanese restaurant called Bonsai. It brings a Lima level of this cuisine to our little town. The dishes are varied and extremely well presented. They have a choice of Ramen noodle dishes that are varied and wonderful. Service is fast. It brings Japanese cuisine to a new height here.
