An absolutely delightful evening - we would wholeheartedly take this tour again!
We were treated to an abundance of delicious food across the three stops, leaving us with a delightful challenge of trying to savor it all.
Make sure to bring some cash with you for the market visit and for tipping the mariachis.
At the last restaurant there was also someone doing the pictures in sombreros - it was around $12 (USD) to buy one if you wanted it.
The Lucha Libre matches were the definite highlight, offering three bouts packed with all sorts of costumes and entertaining antics. It was an immersive experience, as the excitement often spilled over into and interacting with the crowd, making us feel like an integral part of the action.
The true stars of the tour were undoubtedly our fantastic guides, G & Angel. They navigated the evening with seamless expertise, providing informative explanations along the way. Thanks to their efforts, we were treated like VIPs and enjoyed front row seats to the Lucha Libre. Their attention to detail ensured we had an absolutely wonderful evening.
Overall, this tour was an unforgettable evening filled with delicious food, delightful entertainment, and impeccable guiding. We can't wait to relive this experience again in the future!

G and Angel (Ankhil) were terrific. Easy pick up at our resort to a few places to get a taste of Cancun and then the food and entertainment was perfect. Easy drop off back to the resort too.
They did fantastic. I would tell everyone to experience this if you can.
Amused and full !!

Cancun Food Tours, you ruined a precious half day of a family with small children, we saved moneys for a long time to be here and can't digest to have been scammed this way! We requested a pick up in a resort of Playa del Carmen. We received a message on the app stating that an agent wearing a red polo shirt with the company logo would come by the lobby at 4:05 calling out our names. We stayed by the entrance door from 3:50 till 5:30. We called Cancun Food Tours via WhatsApp, normal call, messaged them on WhatsApp while they appeared online, tried via the App too and with the reception phone.. no one ever answered. Finally I went to check with a taxi station close-by, spoke with a dozen taxi drivers, they were nice and tried to be helpful by researching on their phone but no one ever heard of such thing and no one could find any information, not even a location where to take us. Save yourself an headache. DO NOT BOOK with these Thieves. I hope someone at viator will help to get full refund

Our guide G was amazing!! We felt safe everywhere we went. Got to eat and stop at places we would never think of going by ourselves. Great family trip well worth it!!
Harmony_R, Jun 2023
An amazing experience. Our tour guide G had such great energy! The driver Alex was great with the traffic. Tacos were 10/10, tequila was 10/10 and the Lucha libre was awesome!

We had an outstanding time! We made it to a market downtown for street corn, churros and shopping. Ghee was a fabulous host and provided education about Mexican traditions. We highly recommend this excursion if you want an authentic Mexican experience that is less commercialized.

This was awesome!!! Chris was our guide and Jorge was our driver. They were super nice and knowledgeable.
We brought our 10 year old daughter and they were accommodating with a child as well. The wrestling was so fun! We were front row and so close to the action. I will def do this again!
Response from Host, Apr 2023

The Luchador matches were loud and in your face. Super fun! A great look at something a little different in Mexican culture. Different stops provided a look into local culture and plenty of good food. The advertized tequila tasting did not happen. However, the included Beer and Margaritas were flowing. There was the option to purchase more drinks if needed. Angel drove us around like a pro. Diego was always with us, ready to answer questions or help in any way. The souvenirs are a fun addition. Definitely recommend this experience.

My friend and I had the best time on this tour and couldn’t stop smiling. We went to 2 taco spots (were given 6 tacos total) and the first taco spot was one of the best tacos I’ve ever had. Definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Cancun. The luchador match was so much fun! Book it!!!!

What a night! We are a family of 4 (children 5 and 9) from CT USA. We chose this excursion to experience the authentic Mexican Culture. Our tour was led by G and Roy and driven by Angel. They were extremely professional, knowledgable and fun to spend the evening with. The group was small, 8 people in all. We traveled the town in a very comfortable 10 passager van, saw beautiful art around Downtown Cancún, learned a little about the history and culture, ate street corn at the lively night market where we purchased beautiful artisan souvenirs. We made stops through out the evening to taste the tacos and experience the local restaurants. After eating tacos, purchasing listening to live a live Mariachi band play for us and tasting tequila with a little informative presentation we were led out to the back of the restaurant into the Lucha Libre wrestling arena and IT WAS COOL! We weren't able to follow along with the drama and the storyline because it was all in Spanish (as expected and honestly part of what made it so cool). But it wasnt hard to catch on to the excitement. It was worth every dollar and every hour of the night! My kids had a blast and to quote my WWE loving 9 yr old "the best night ever"!
