Must do, money well spent - I travel extensively hundreds of days a year and take quite a few tours and excursions. Myself and my wife took this tour and it was just us and Oz today. I cannot say enough good things about Oz and the tour. My wife said it’s the most fun she’s had on our Cancun trip. Not only did we learn a lot about tacos and ate amazingly well we learned a lot about the history of the area and Oz is such a personable talkative guy he is a perfect fit as a guide.

Great experience - Great experience. Os was really friendly and welcoming. He chatted about the local area and the food and took us to places I wouldn’t have found on my own. The tacos were tasty too. I would recommend. Seemed like an authentic experience. Thank you

Great food, great company and even better experience of the everyday life. - Must try! Authentic experience of Cancun, Mexico and although you hear/read about a couple of tacos per visit, believe me, you get full!! Tour guide Oz was very friendly, kind and has a great sense of humour! You’ll be lucky to have him as your guide. A very great insight in to the Mexican culture!

Happy Bellies - Came to Cancun, Mexico to celebrate my best friend's 30th birthday. We were so excited to get off the resort and experience real Mexican cuisine and culture. The meeting point was easy to find and Osvaldo was a great host. He was very informative as we learned so much about Mexico and him! The first location made me feel like a true local and I am still dreaming about those tacos. All the people we interacted with at the locations were friendly and helpful. This tour for sure had us full as we left with very happy bellies!

Highlighting Cancun's Local Gems - After 2 days of having bland food in the Hotel Zone, I signed up for this tour, bringing me to the heart of Downtown Cancun. I met with my tour guide, Oz, and a fellow solo traveller at a perfect time when the sun was getting ready to set, and the streets were bustling with street food and local vendors. We visited 3 taco spots, each with something unique and interesting to offer. As a small group, we were able to chat and ask a lot of questions. Oz was super personable and easy to connect to, which is also obvious from the way he interacts with the locals in the restaurants and in the streets. He was a great host armed with lots of stories, local tidbits and knowledge about Cancun, the Mayan culture and Mexico. And the food?! SO MUCH TACOS! Each taco we had was different, and Oz taught us something new about them. In the end, my fellow guest and I took home food because we were stuffed! This tour really restored my faith in Mexican food in Cancun and made me wish I had chosen to stay Downtown over the Hotel Zone! Highly recommend this activity for foodies visiting Cancun~
