Taco tour with great potential

Glenda_S, Apr 2024

There was good & bad. On a girls trip my friend and I agreed the van smelled musty and felt unclean. The driver was very knowledgable about the food & culture. The 1st taco place had live music BUT we were seated at a dirty table. The 2nd stop was fun & the best taco. They offered pictures in Mexican hats. I had the best non alcoholic pina colada ever. The 3rd stop was not good. It was a busy popular taco stand but in an alley that had an old liquor smell. The food was being prepped in an area of the alley, next to the taco stand, that was small & didnt look good. Many of us did not eat the tacos there but the tour guide didnt seem to notice. I got 1 taco there & it was tasty. My favorite was the churro stand and that area of the tour in general. The area was bright, clean, and carnival like. The churro was the best I have ever had in my life...WOW! The tequila tasting was amazing if u are a drinker. We went to a gift shop that gave private group tastings. The guys at the shop were so aggressive, bossy, pushy while I was brousing, that I bought nothing in defiance...lol. My friend bought a nice bottle of Tequila. We felt very safe & the company has potential. They just need to polish up on cleanliness & some taco venue choices.

Awesome taco tour

haminat_n, Apr 2024

This was such a fun tour and we had Luis as our guide. He was hilarious and was very knowledgeable about the history and food. The food was delicious and by the end you’re so stuffed. I felt safe the entire time, at one point I had mosquito bites and forgot my repellent and Luis went out of his way to get me some. There was another couple on the tour and they were vibes and it was just a great time!!! Highly recommend.

Tacos + Tequila + History Lesson all in one!

Courtney_K, Apr 2024

My friend and I had an amazing time on this tour! Our guide, Luis, was extremely friendly and knowledgeable, essentially giving us a history lesson about the Yucatán area, Mexican culture and cuisine. Speaking of the cuisine, all the the tacos were great, especially the chile relleno de espinaca tacos from Pescaditos. It also gave us a chance to see parts of Cancun outside of the hotel zone. I think this was a great value and I’d highly recommend it.

Exactly how they describe it

Brooke_P, Feb 2024

I enjoyed hanging out with Antonio and him sharing his background and art with us. We walked to several places for delicious tacos and various beverages. I especially enjoyed seeing the Mexican Police enjoying the tacos from the same taco truck we were at, that was reassuring. Antonio helped us find the bus directly after so we could get back to our resort safely.
