Overview
Salvador’s food is inseparable from its history, and this tour brings that to life through the streets vendors and neighbourhood eateries. Rather than focusing on restaurants, you’ll experience the city through markets, street stalls, and small local spots, tasting the Afro-Bahian dishes that define its identity. With 12 plus tastings across multiple stops, the tour is designed as a crash course in the flavours of Bahia from iconic street foods like acarajé to simple grilled snacks and deeper, slow-cooked dishes like ximxim de galinha. The setting is a key part of the experience. You’ll ride the Elevador Lacerda, move through the cobbled streets of Pelourinho, and explore areas most visitors pass through without understanding. Led by a knowledgeable local tastemaker guide, this is a relaxed, small-group experience that offers an authentic introduction to Salvador's food scene.
Meeting and Pickup
Meet outside the Galeria Mercado Modelo in Comércio district. If looking at the front of the Mercado Modelo market, it is the right hand corner entrance to the building. It is easily accessible by taxi or on foot from most of the city's central hotels.
End Point
The tour concludes at the Praça João Alfredo Fontenelle plaza in the old town of Salvador. The tour duration is approximately 3.5 to 4 hours depending on the pace of the group. Your guide can help you to find transport back to your accommodation if you wish.
