Wonderful evening with Jane. - We loved learning about the town of Huatulco. It is such a cute little town with a rich history. Jane has lived there for over 20 years and is fully embedded into the community and has learned everything about it. The food stops we made were delicious and interesting. Everything was tasty and fresh. We tried many of the local delights and even tried the dried crickets. They are not objectionable at all. Some people just don't like the idea of eating a bug. I would love to return and take Jane's cooking class to learn her secret to good fish tacos. Jane's personality made this tour interesting and fun, I highly recommend checking it out when in the area.

A MUST DO IN HUATULCO!!! - My daughter and I were very pleasantly surprised in that this was not only a foodie’s food tour rather a cultural immersion on different levels. From tasting local street foods such as esquites, mango con chile y limon and horchatas y jugo de Jamaica, we were also encouraged to understand the almost sacred and essential significance behind why/what/when Huatulco is through its simple yet flavorful dishes such as pozoles, pollo con chile de arbol and tacos al pastor slowly cooked in trompos (spits). We also got to enjoy sampling Oaxacan chocolates, tobala mezcal and salted and spiced chapulines (grasshoppers). This experience was elevated and extra special due to the fact that our tour guide is a local Huatulco resident of 30-years, an entrepreneur and owner of Cafe Juanita (a must try at Huatulco) and chief editor and writer of Huatulco’s local magazine “The Eye”, JANE BAUER! Jane hands down ensured we got the most out of our 2.5 hours with her! Thank you Jane for the unforgettable moments and newly learned history of Huatulco! Your love for this city and your kindred spirit to help your people motivates us to keep returning to this oasis! #TlayudasArely#CafeJuanita#Raices#Chocolate&Cafe#PaleteriaZamora#IglesiadelaCrucesita#MercadoRelaquias#SuperSantaCruz PROS: Tour was on time, reasonable walking distances between pit stops, care package tote containing water and local guide magazine provided per person, tour guide is fluently multilingual, able to use restroom during some pit stops and open to answering any questions without feeling rushed. CONS: None on the side of the tour provider (Huatulco Food Tours) but on the side of VIATOR it was very difficult to reach customer service and didn’t receive a response from VIATOR customer service for questions. VIATOR customer service had a text message-only process and had no telephone number to call to speak to a live agent which is very inefficient and frustrating. TIPS: Wear comfortable shoes, comfortable clothing a curious and open mindset and HAVE FUN!!!

Awesome Food Experience - The food tour was fascinating! Well worth taking. I learned a lot about the local dishes, the history of corn, the way foods have changed around the world as a result of colonization and the history/culture of the Huatulco area. We enjoyed sampling the many tasty dishes and seeing all the different small vendors and restaurants. With Jane as a trusted food expert, we could try places and foods we never would have felt comfortable to on our own and mark them down for return visits. So many tasty treats. Thanks, Jane! It was awesome!

Book now - wonderful experience!!! - What a wonderful experience we had with Huatulco Walking Food Tour. We were fortunate enough to have Jane show us around the charming town of Huatulco. From the beginning the adventure begins. All of the tastings were delicious. From the chips, to the hole in the wall (literally) rotisserie chicken, to the pozole, the tacos, the ice cream and then to finish the tour a few tastings of mezcal. Jane gave us so much information on the history of Huatulco, Oaxaca and cuisine. The feel of the town is that everyone knows everyone. Everyone cares for everyone and the sense of community is palpable. If you are considering this tour don't pass it up. It was a lovely experience. Ask Jane about cooking classes and then Cafe Juanita (going there tonight!). This was a memorable time and we are grateful for the opportunity to spend an evening with Jane - Muchas gracias!!!

A must if visiting Huatulco! - Frances was an amazing guide! I’m sometimes skeptical of tours because I often find it feels extra touristy and not authentic to the culture of a location. But! Not this one! This was our first time in Huatulco (our group of 4 was two 30-something couples; we spent our trip mostly at a resort), and we were able to experience the culture and food in an authentic way through this tour. I really appreciated the personal touches Frances gave on the tour - nothing was rushed about it; she took time to answer questions, linger longer at the places we liked, and got us so much good food. I just wish I had been hungrier coming into the night because I got full too quickly! I can’t wait to come back and experience more of this beautiful area one day, and am glad for the introduction Frances gave us. Would highly recommend!
