Ecuadors Tropical Fruit Guided Tasting in Quito

Description

This is not a cooking class or a typical food tour, it’s a delicious, eye-opening journey through Ecuador’s extraordinary biodiversity, guided by a local fruit lover.

If you opt for the full experience, your day begins at one of Quito’s bustling markets, where your host will select and open fruits you’ve probably never seen before. Want to skip the walk? No problem — the tasting alone is just as immersive.

As you taste, you’ll discover:

Nutritional properties and healing uses

Indigenous and colonial histories

Seasonal patterns and farming traditions

Culinary secrets from the Andes to the Amazon

From tangy to creamy, sweet to earthy, this tasting experience invites you to rediscover fruit the Ecuadorian way.

Included

Photos and stories to take home with you
Guided tasting of 15+ tropical and native Mexican fruits
Local guide fluent in English (and passionate about fruit!)
Cultural insights, nutritional info & fun facts
Optional Market tour!

Excluded

Any other fruit, food or drink outside the tasting you would like to buy for your own.
