We loved Jonas! - Our guide Jonas was very funny, nice, and helpful. We felt safe with him and he answered all of our questions and took the time to individualize our experience and help us know more about the culture of Mexico.

A great experience, and a great guide. - Jonas gave an excellent tour, taking us to local spots we wouldn’t have otherwise visited. His English was staggeringly good, he’s incredibly friendly and highly knowledgable. A must for not only foodies, but anybody hoping to learn more about local cuisine, and Mexico more generally. We’d highly recommend the tour. Thank you Jonas!

This was like meeting up... - This was like meeting up with a local friend to show you all his favorite spots instead of a stranger. We had an awesome time!

An educational, adventurous, and tasty food tour experience! - We were a group of 4 adventurous eaters and we really enjoyed this tour! We met Jonas at an easy to find location near our hotel, and visited 6 different spots nearby, on foot. He was friendly and knowledgeable. We enjoyed all the food and discovering new local places. We tried different taco meats, quesadillas with corn smut, delicious mole, fresh made juices, and capped off the tour with delicious frozen treats. As we walked Jonas narrated some of the street art we saw. I only wish we did this tour earlier in our vacation so we could return to these places again!

Fantastic Food Tour with Don Juan! - This food tour was an absolute highlight, thanks to the incredible Don Juan! His passion and knowledge made the experience both fun and delicious. We started with a tasty quesadilla, followed by flavorful red and green enchiladas. Next, we hit the streets for authentic tacos, including a perfectly seasoned taco al pastor. The journey continued with a delicious tamale, and we ended on a refreshing note with a watermelon ice lolly. Every stop was well-chosen, and the food was outstanding. Highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting an authentic taste of the local cuisine!

Come to this tour hungry! :) - Great tour! My guide, Jonas, was very nice. He speaks good English. I had fun. And, of course, food in all places, where we stopped, was amazing. Don't forget to take cash to leave tips in all cafes. People, who work there, definitely deserve it.

Fun way to experience dinner in PDC! - Jonas was an excellent tour guide AND WE LOVED this food tour! We met him near the bus station off 5th ave at 5 pm. The tour took about 2 hours and we walked through various neighborhoods with 6 stops total. 4 resturants, a fresh juice place, an an icecream/paletas spot. We loved it!! He knows the area very well and took us to local spots we would not have ventured on our own. We loved that he introduced us to Mexican food that some of us had not eaten before. We enjoyed seeing the murals as we walked around and he pointed out various points of interest. He was very respectful of our food restrictions and a very pleasant person to spend the afternoon with. We ended our tour in the same spot we started at which was convenient. It was worth every penny and the highlight of our trip. We were full and satisfied at the end. We made sure to tip him for his excellent service!
