Hi 👋 I'm Juan, Cali local, born and raised here. Tourism is: something I love to do, something I am good at, and something I can make a job out of. That's why I have found a vocation in it. My tours keep growing, expanding, innovating, always a project-under-construction. They're never finished as I keep improving them with the experience every traveller brings. I speak superb english, native spanish, fluent portuguese, and some french. Thanks for considering me to show you my hometown. Welcome to Cali!

Tour description

For travelers who want to feel local authenticity


Historical landmarks, local food (and fruits), a cup of Colombian coffee on a 7th floor (with a great view!) and USB Memory Sticks with up to 1000 Salsa & Reggaeton songs... for a fraction of a price! 

This tour is a bargain all over and stands up to its name and presents to you a local street commerce experience full of unique spots inside CENTRO, local name for the commercial district of Cali, a 3 million people metropolitan area. A place where everybody goes searching for the BBB:

 Triple B

  • BUENO good

  • BONITO nice

  • BARATO cheap


-THIS IS NOT A HISTORY TOUR, NEITHER A FANCY DOWNTOWN TOUR - this is a shopping tour where we will explore the intestines of a society where street commerce is rampant and everybody wants to get the best deal.

For the ones that enjoy immersing into local culture. Let's dive in the commerce-packed streets of Centro de Cali.


CENTRO is the commercial heart of any colombian city!


Follow me on a journey to the heart of Cali. Where beauty meets beast, at any given corner. It's real, and fun!
 Street vendors multiplied by a thousand. Cheap, local food. Imports, bulk buying and selling. Counterfeit merchandise (or as we call them, Triple A brand Copies). Basically anything and everything at an unbeatable price. Any Colombian knows if you don't want to pay more, centro is the place to go.

A fun tour where we will explore a south american concrete jungle.

San Andrés is an island in the caribbean, which is colombian territory. Colombians used to go there and buy cheap imports and this mall expands on that concept.
