Floating in the heart of the Caribbean Sea, Puerto Rico is a culinary paradise that promises a rich and diverse range of textures, flavors, and aromas. Here you can enjoy traditional dishes such as mofongo and arroz con gandules or indulge in contemporary interpretations of Caribbean cuisine. The island has been intrinsically shaped by the many global cultures that have passed through, and an array of African, Spanish, and Taino Indian flavors can still be enjoyed in the country’s restaurants and cafes today.
Beginning in the capital of San Juan, your culinary tour will see you exploring a variety of restaurants, cafes, and markets alongside a knowledgeable local guide with a passion for food. The city’s Old Town is the epicenter of cuisine on the island and is home to a mix of traditional and contemporary offerings. After San Juan, you’ll head to Puerto Rico’s southern city of Ponce – host to a vibrant Spanish-inspired culinary scene and the ideal place to enjoy the country’s delicious local seafood.
