Awesome taco tour - 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! - 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.

Two Thumbs up - The tour guide was very informative. He did a great job of keeping a positive atmosphere. Another positive is they worked with my pregnant wife’s diet restrictions.

Taco fun! - The Taco Tour was great! I enjoyed eating at the local spots for authentic tacos. Luis was an excellent guide educating us not just about tacos but the history of the food in Mexico. The food and great people made the tour very enjoyable.

Delicious delicious tacos - Luis was a great tour guide, he had lots of facts and info about Mexico and Cancun. We had a similar sense of humour so we all laughed as we toured the taco places. We really enjoyed our group and we all made friends by the end. The tacos were delicious, I will remember the tacos forever because of how tasty they were. I really recommend this tour, you’ve got to go on it!

Taco tour with great potential - 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.

Could not attend due to local protest in the area, would not refund - We were not able to attend this tour due to a warning that was sent to us from the local consulate informing us there was a protest taking place in the area. The warning advised it is ILLEGAL for US citizens to participate in political demonstrations, not to mention their further warning of potential VIOLENCE. The tour group even sent me a warning flyer directly. So based on that information, we had to cancel. It was less than 24-hours as per their policy but the information about the protest wasn't provided until the day of the scheduled trip yet they claimed our reason for cancelling did not warrant a refund. If we had attempted to attend we were at risk of being INJURED or ARRESTED by the local authorities. But that's not a valid reason to cancel apparently.
