Awesome Guide - Diego was an awesome guide and the perfect person to introduce us to Guadalajara. His passion for the city shines through in every stop, from its history and architecture to its incredible food scene. The food was amazing, and Diego's connections with the local food market outlets made the experience feel really authentic. He's friendly, engaging, and happy to answer any question you throw at him. It was great to share some drinks together too as we watch a game of the FIFA World Cup. One tip: come hungry, but pace yourself, there's a lot of delicious food along the way! Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Guadalajara.

Best food tour! - This is the best food tour I have experienced. My husband and I have traveled a lot and frequently start with a walking and/or food tour and have always had fun but hands down the knowledge, expertise, desire to support local economies and friendliness that we experienced on Diego’s tour was out of this world!

Delicious, informative and fun! - We thoroughly enjoyed our time with Diego learning all about Guadalajara and sampling its delicious dishes. Diego is super engaging and really knows his stuff - he is knowledgeable about his city, its rich history and architecture as well as its food culture. He is on a first-name basis with the friendly teams at the specialty restaurants we visited (he’s been going to many of the places on the tour since he was a kid). A word of advice - pace yourself during the tour. There are so many delicious things to try, you’ll want to save room for them all!

Every stop offered something delicious and authentic—truly a great way to experience the local flavors and culture. The food was outstanding from start to finish, and I got to try a variety of dishes I wouldn’t have found on my own. Our tour guide, Diego, was incredibly knowledgeable and made the experience even better. He shared interesting history, local insights, and really brought each location to life. You can tell he’s passionate about what he does. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Guadalajara—it’s a perfect mix of great food, culture, and a fantastic guide!
