Day drinking with Diego - We had such a fun afternoon with Deigo! Don’t let the description fool you, this tour is equally about the cantina drinks and snacks (bocadillos). You will eat… a lot.
Diego was a wonderful and entertaining guide full of stories and life experiences that he eagerly shared with us. There was never a dull moment with him.

The perfect blend of beer and culture in Merida! La combination perfecta de cerveza y cultura en Mérida - We had a great experience on the beer tour with Adventures Mexico! Laura, our guide, was outstanding—knowledgeable, engaging, and full of enthusiasm. She shared fascinating insights about the history and culture while keeping the atmosphere fun and relaxed. The selection of cantinas and beers was excellent, offering a perfect balance of flavors and styles to explore.
This tour is not just about tasting great beer; it’s also a cultural journey that showcases the vibrant traditions of Mérida. I highly recommend Adventures Mexico and especially Laura for an unforgettable and enriching experience. Cheers!

Wonderful Time - I had a great time! Laura was a very friendly and knowledgeable tour guide. The food and drinks were great, and it was wonderful to learn a lot about Merida from a local's perspective.

Cantina tour Merida - This was a great experience. Marisol was our guide and we enjoyed her company and knowledge of the city. The cantinas served snacks with our drinks, which were really small meals. I’d definitely recommend this activity.

Cantina Culture - Bar hopping tour was a lot of fun! Loved learning about the cantina culture and trying the snacks. Our guide Marisol was very sweet and made great recommendations. My bf and I are were the only ones on the tour - would have been fun with another couple.

Off the Beaten Path - Very authentic experience. They showed us local cantinas that I don't think we would have found on our own. Much more fun to drink with the locals! The bar snacks are very generous so don't eat lunch beforehand.

Great tour experience! - This was a wonderful tour! Luz was very kind and it was really nice getting to know her. I loved the places she took us. Only challenge is that it was REALLY hot and the tour happened right in the middle of the afternoon.
