Overview

Hey beer lovers—Behind the Pint is a craft beer and food walking tour through La Candelaria, Bogotá's historic heart. Over four hours, you'll wander cobblestone streets and colonial plazas while discovering a side of the city most visitors never see.

Enjoy 13 curated tastings—from independent Colombian craft breweries to ancestral spirits—each paired with regional bites from small, local spots we love.

Along the way, play traditional Colombian bar games like Tejo and Bolirana, and discover hidden salsa venues after dark.

What sets this tour apart? Your guides aren't just locals—they're professional historians and gastronomy experts, offering deeper insight into every storey and flavour.

Music like cumbia, vallenato, salsa, and champeta brings the experience to life, alongside tales of history, legends, and street art.

More than a beer tour, it's a journey into Bogotá's culture—one sip at a time.

Activity itinerary

Parque de los Periodistas Gabriel Garcia Marquez

20m
Admission ticket included

Our tour begins near Plazoleta de La Pola, where we step inside a traditional cultural house for our first tasting paired with a classic Colombian bar game — a playful, authentic welcome to La Candelaria's hidden side.

Las Aguas

Just a short walk away, we dive into authentic Colombian street snacks — handcrafted bites that locals love, full of flavour and tradition you won't find in guidebooks.

Monumento a La Pola

35m
Admission ticket included

We walk towards the historic Chorro de Quevedo area, where Bogotá was founded. Here we visit hidden spots dedicated to Colombia's ancestral drinks — centuries-old recipes still crafted today — tasting our way through the country's most storied flavours.

Barrio La Candelaria

30m
Admission ticket included

La Candelaria pulses with culture, and craft beer is part of that energy. Near the Casa de Poesía Silva, we step into intimate bars where rock music meets hard-to-find independent Colombian brews — the kind of hidden spots you won't spot on any tourist map.

Plazoleta del Rosario

30m
Admission ticket included

We head into La Candelaria's narrow callejones — hidden alleys where local venues bring people together around food, drinks, and fresh ideas. We join the locals for another round of tastings and the kind of spontaneous conversation that makes Bogotá unforgettable.

Luis Angel Arango Library

30m
Admission ticket included

Around the Biblioteca Luis Ángel Arango, we slip into the local spots students love — buzzing with live Colombian rhythms — for a round of bolirana, the beloved frog-toss bar game that turns strangers into teammates and any travel group into instant friends.

Plaza de Bolivar de Bogota

20m
Admission ticket included

We end the tour near the main square in one of Bogotá's classic old shopping arcades, where a hidden salsa venue comes alive after dark. Our final tastings, live Colombian rhythms, and one last toast to close the night — 13 flavours, new friends, and a storey to take home.
