Favourite part of my trip to Querétaro! - Itzel is amazing! She took the time to explain the history around downtown Queretaro. We went to four different businesses where I was given a popular taco eaten in Mexico. While I was enjoying the tacos she would tell me about the business, the ingredients used and how the taco is cooked. It was great tour personalized to me.

A fun night out with David! - We had a great time touring the Centro on a Saturday night with David! He was so knowledgeable about the history of Queretaro and Mexico and provided us with just the right amount of information to appreciate our surroundings. He also answered all our questions and was very accommodating when we wanted to stop to listen to some live music that we passed (a huge music festival was happening the night of our tour, which made it extra fun). And the vegetarian street food from different regions was terrific! I especially liked the quesadillas and the gorditas. The Centro is beautiful at night, and the view of the aqueduct was a nice surprise. TIP: wear comfortable shoes!!!

Great food plus history! - This was a wonderful experience! As we walked through town we got to sample a wide range of foods and I really appreciate that they were able to provide vegetarian options without making me feel like I was missing out - it felt very authentic. Great food while getting a history tour of the city of Querétaro - what could be better!

Amazing food in Queretaro - This tour was absolutely amazing! Edgar, our tour guide, was so nice, friendly, and was able to easily translate with us. Also, they were able to accommodate our vegetarian diets with the restaurants. The food was good too! Make sure to try squash blossom quesadillas!
