Food tour with Erin - Very informative: very good local street tacos at three locations then another chicken soup stop. All provided with instructions on using local sauces. Last stop was. Delicious while fried snapper. Local drinks and beers offered at each stop. Final stop was a local bakery that uses wood fired oven to bake local sweet breads. 11/10 taste as we had straight out the oven..well worth the price for the entire experience,, Erin is very educated and has a masters / PHD.. tip her well .. she teaches at the university and is raising an 11 yo.. You travel in a nice air conditioned van very small distances between each stop.. You will enjoy this tour..

Cozumel Food Tour - our wonderful tour guide was very knowledgeable about the food and history of the area. Very interesting to go beyond the touristy areas to try authentic and very delicious food! The market and bakery were exceptionally fascinating. We enjoyed our tour and would definitely recommend it to anyone else who would like to get off the beaten path and try some fantastic food.

Best food tour! - We went to 5 places (6 if you include stopping by the market). The food was amazing at each stop and the staff was so friendly! We got so much more than we expected! I loved our taxi driver too (wish we had gotten his name). The whole experience was amazing and we highly recommend!!!

Perfect and delicious - Everything about this tour was fantastic! Tour guide Erin spoke perfect English, had loads of knowledge about local cuisine, and was very helpful and friendly. Meeting place was easy to find. Recommend that you go hungry! We went 3 hrs after breakfast and could not eat all the food provided on this tour. We went to 5 places frequented by locals including a local market. We did not go to any places that were "touristy", instead we got to eat authentic local food. I 100% recommend it!

The restaurants were true local spots and they each provided wonderful local dishes. We enjoyed learning about the food, its preparation and how it fits into local culture. All of the food we ate was fabulous and we highly recommend this tour as a way to experience and explore a bit of Cozumel history and culture. Thank you Erin for such an amazing day!
