Vitamin T! - We had a fantastic morning with Fabian, touring Ixtapa and Zihua. Fabian took us to some great local spots for amazing local cuisine. Come with an appetite! We enjoyed lots of Vitamin T: Tacos, Tostadas, Torta (and Quesadillas). Fabian is very knowledgeable about the area, and had lots of information and recommendations to give us for the rest of our trip. Highly recommend this food tour.

Insightful and Engaging - Orion and Benjamin were fantastic hosts and incredible guides. Their knowledge of the area and advice were insightful and provided us with confidence to explore more later on our own. Great humour, friendly and down to earth. Would recommend this company without hesitation.

The two best tour guides you’ll meet here!!!! - Fabulous Fabian and Fantastic Flavio took us on the absolute best tour. Picked up on time at our hotel, great communication prior to the tour and they found out in advance about food allergies. We went to various coastal places, they were also great photographers! The town Zihuatanejo was so interesting, great knowledge and lots of information. Private tour in a van and so comfortable with water and beer provided. The markets were amazing as we tried lots of local food and ate lots of dishes at various vendors. We took a tour of the shopping area and saw the ocean at various spots. Next after a lot of great food we headed to Ixtapa…. With a stop at a bakery on the way! We got to see a lot of wildlife, crocs, birds, turtles and more, beautiful houses and hotels along the way. After a last stop at the beach we headed back. Over 4 hours of fun! It was one of the best tours ever. Thank you to the terrific twosome, we had a blast! And thanks for looking after us so well 💕

Absolute best food and city tour! - Fabulous Fabian and Fantastic Flavio were the best! We had a great food and city walking tour in Zihuatanejo. So much to see and do….They were both so nice, attentive, knowledgeable and looked after us like VIP’s. They went above and beyond showing us so much and explaining the culture and so much more. After eating way too much in a selection of great places we headed to Ixtapa and saw the entire town. This was a great 4+ hours and so fun. Their English was also fantastic. Thanks for looking after us so well and showing Wendy where to shop for more jewelry 🤣. Carol, Sue, Nancy and Wendy.
