About

Join us for an award-winning three-hour walking food tour that caters to vegetarians and offers an immersive Mexican food and cultural experience in one of Playa del Carmen’s lesser-known neighborhoods. This area remains a hidden gem, untouched by the popularity that other parts of the city enjoy.

Discover the culinary treasures of Playa del Carmen's most authentic local cuisine, while gaining a deep understanding of the Mayan Riviera’s rich history, culture, and geography. These elements combine to create the beloved traditional Mexican food we explore on this tour.

Accompanied by a knowledgeable guide, this unique and incomparable experience takes you off the beaten path and into the heart of the city. Ideal for those with an adventurous spirit eager to savor authentic Mexican flavors and connect with local people.

"Great experience - highly recommend!!"

This was an amazing experience! Our family of five had Marcel (Marcel10) as our tour guide and he was awesome! From the moment we met him, he was friendly, outgoing, funny, extremely knowledgeable about Mexican culture, history and food (without droning on too much and losing the interest of my “young adult” kids) and by the end we felt he was more of a friend than a tour guide. It was our first ever food tour experience and look forward to doing more in the future, having had such a great introduction. Thanks, Marcel!!

"Calling all Foodies.."

Thoroughly enjoyed this tour and would recommend to anyone wanting to try the kind of Mexican food you won’t find in Taco Bell. Enrique was our guide for the evening and he was both informative and a lot of fun. The Enchiladas de Mole poblano was truly special and worth the tour in its own. Other highlights were the fruit and veg market, street tacos and loved the Guanabana agua de frutas. Oh - and a special mention for the fried crickets too! You also get to see parts of Playa del Carmen most tourists wouldn’t bother going to.
