Taco-filled day in Tulum - We had a great time exploring Tulum with Alex! The great thing about a tour like this is you get to visit places you might otherwise miss - on side streets or tucked away with a small store front. Alex was a lot of fun and told us a lot of interesting history. We left feeling very full and are returning to at least one of the restaurants while we’re still here. I also appreciated the restaurants were all locally owned and a tip was included for each stop throughout the tour.

Recommended as authentic local food tour - Great experience. Visited places we definitely wouldn’t have on our own, where local people were eating their daily meals. Plenty of stops to feel full, but not sick. With just the right amount of local history information for context.

Great experience - Manny led us to about seven locations where we tasted a variety of Mexican foods at places that were experts at their offering (One was Manny himself with his addition to cactus fruit). All were good, and the real education was the various toppings and sauces that allowed you to really personalize your meal. He also was very good in ensuring a vegetarians in the group was catered for at every stop.
