A great way to see some wonderful places to eat. - Abner did a great job taking us to restaurants we had not tried before and went to on our own after the tour. We had walked by most of them before but hadn’t stopped.

You won’t do a better tour than this ! - We had an absolutely brilliant tour with Claudio , without a doubt the best food tour we have ever done ! Not only did we get to taste some great local dishes but we visited markets we would never have found on our own . Claudio has an incredible knowledge of the history and customs of the area and shares them with a huge amount of passion and enthusiasm. We spent significantly longer than we expected and we could have stayed talking and learning all day , a fantastic tour and great value for money. We would highly recommend this tour with Claudio

A Must!! - Amazing food tour! Starting with the local market and through the amazing mural Streets, eating at places that if you’re wandering yourself, you will have a hard time finding them. Claudio was fantastic- my in laws are elderly but he kept the very nice leisurely pace, he spoke very clearly and loud enough that my in laws had no problem while walking up and down the narrow somewhat difficult streets. Food was amazingly delicious and we got all the great recommendations we need! I highly absolutely recommend to have this tour- esp. beginning of your stay in San Cristobal de las Casas so that you don’t miss any of the amazing restaurants ❤️❤️

Incredible food tour! - Cesar was the most incredible guide to San Cris!!! Our fantastic food tour started with the old market, which was fascinating and fun and we got a chance to try anything we were interested in! Next we were led through different restaurant stops, where we got to try everything from soups to hot chocolate to mole to fusion cuisine. Throughout, Cesar was super knowledgeable and really went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time. Truly a perfect experience!

A Must Do Experience! - This was far more than just a food tour. Cesar personalized the experience and was such a generous host! He has a genuine enthusiasm for his culture and the cuisine. I was really impressed by his knowledge of the Mayan culture and area. We toured through the town and made several stops. Along the way, we connected with restaurant owners and had some fascinating conversations. There was a wide range of food samplings. Truly, everything was delicious and unique!
