Cool market tour - Kristian was a great guide and showed me around the market which I wouldn’t have visited otherwise. I should’ve ate a lighter breakfast because lunch afterwards was really filling

Great way to savor Cabo! - We went with Kristian on a FABULOUS day tour weeks earlier, and when my two daughters &I returned for a Cabo wedding , we made sure to book Kristian again! The food tour was a really great way to get to not only taste many foods in Cabo, but understand more of it's rich history. The food was amazing, and served at local venues without commercialism...authentic and delicious. We loved eating with the locals a d experiencing their markets. I highly recommend this food tour and also Kristian as a intelligent but down to earth guide, who was born and raised in Cabo and has a wonderful understanding of the culture, area and country. Thank you Kristian! We hope to return and see you many times in the future!! Muchos Gracias!!

Fabulous and delicious tour of the local side of Cabo - We did a tour with Kristian on a previous trip to Cabo, and the first thing we did after we finalized our flights with book another tour with him! Kristian is an incredible guide. He's a Cabo native, his English is flawless, he's extremely knowledgeable and is just a fun person to be around! He'll customize the tour to your group (we had a baby and he was great to work around our logistics-- we had kids on a previous tour and he was fabulous to cater parts to both the kids and the adults as we needed). We love seeing the local, less touristy side of places, and we truly got that from this tour. The food was AMAZING and the variety of markets was educational and fun. I can't recommend Kristian (and if you're lucky, his partner Kate) highly enough!!!!!!

Be sure to come hungry! - Christian was very knowledgeable and a wonderful guide! Each of the markets were different and enjoyable. However, my favorite was the first market, which is where the local's shop! Then you get the added experience of enjoying an authentic Mexican breakfast. Christian walks you through the menu in detail and explains each of the drinks and dishes. Then once you can't decide what to try he makes the best recommendations to ensure that you get to try each of the different types. Be sure to come hungry! On the walk to the next market, we also got to try some Mexican candy...yummy! I highly recommend this tour!

For any foodies out there - this is for you! - We were lucky enough to do Kristian's historical walking tour a few years ago and returned to San Jose this Christmas as we loved the relaxed atmosphere and beautiful sunny days. If you're thinking of doing either tour - do not hesitate! You won't regret it and will definitely be in the safest of hands. As a real local, there is no greater tour guide than Kristian - his knowledge of the town and its history, the local spots and the best food is second to none. We're real foodies so it was great to find out that he had added this market tour to his repertoire. It's a 3 hour tour, but come hungry! It takes you round a few very different markets that I would never have ventured to were it not for this tour. Theres lots to taste and learn about along the way, a traditional breakfast from one of the local vendors that gave us a chance to sit and chat and discuss the different types of typical breakfasts on offer, and also plenty to chose from for lunch if you chose to grab lunch at the last market (If you make there needing to eat again that is.. we were stuffed!) Be sure to speak to Kristian on any questions you have on the area and other tours he has running - my husband headed out on one of Kristian's bike tours and absolutely loved it.

3 Market Tour - What a fabulous Day! We loved our market tour with Chris. He was knowledgeable and fun and a very easy going guy making him easy to talk to and ask questions of. We had a fabulous local meal at the first market stop. We will be going back there. We will be back to do other tours with Chris as well!

Cultural market tour - Kristian was an excellent local guide escorting us to three different types of local markets. It was a little bit of history, food tasting and local flavor. Lunch was included and it was incredible! Come hungry because it’s a full meal. This was our second tour with Kris and he’s knowledgeable and great fun! We would take another tour with him in a heartbeat!

Great food and fun adventure - Excellent local knowledge and communication skills. A very worthwhile experience, especially if you want to see where the locals shop for the produce. There were no other tourists at the first place which we loved. We also enjoyed walking from one market to another.
