Description
Meet your guide at the Galería Alameda, the city's most iconic public market. Begin your full-sensory experience by smelling the flowers, hearing the vendors, tasting exotic fruits you've never seen, and exploring a real piece of local life.
Try a colorful selection of tropical fruits that are hard to find anywhere else, even in Colombia. Some of the fruits you may include are mangostino, chirimoya, anón, curuba, chachairrú, grosella, níspero, chontaduro (an aphrodisiac), guama, and many more, depending on the season.
Try fresh cheeses directly from local vendors: cuajada, campesino, and costeño. Plus, explore Cali’s Pacific influence through coconut sweets, water, oils, and cane-distilled liquors.
Next, visit the flower market. See vibrant heliconias, roses, orchids, and more — straight from the farmers. Did you know Colombia is the #2 flower exporter in the world (after The Netherlands)?
Finally, visit the stalls where locals buy spiritual and traditional remedies, amulets, and ritual tools. Get a unique peek into Colombian beliefs and superstitions.
