We've been to Cozumel several times and wish we had taken this tour on one of our earlier visits. - One of the most unique food tours we've been on. Amazing variety and excellent background and history from our teacher/guide. Our tour included a visit to a local market, which is something we always enjoy. At the very start of the tour our guide said it was safe to eat and drink all the food on the tour and we were glad to get this reassurance.

Delicious Food Tour - Erin took us to places where the locals eat and the food was great. Erin explained everything about the dishes we were going to eat, the spices in them, etc. She really made it a fun experience.

Highlight of our Cruise - Jerry was fantastic right from the start. Traveling with ages from 7 - 70, we felt safe and taken care of as soon as we met him. The restaurants were all very real, very authentic, and Jerry’s banter and relationships with the owners there showed. Worth every penny.

Love food! - We loved this food tour so much that we have now done it 3 times!! Erin, your host is so knowledgeable and so nice! We love to learn about local culture and we love food! You get to go to a couple restaurants and then the local market. After the market, you go to another restaurant and then 2 more places. The final place is the bakery which supplies to the whole area. The tour lasts about 3 hours and you still have time to explore before going back to the cruise ship.

Jerry rocks - True local experience. Been to Cozumel many times. This was the best! Jerry, our Guide, is from Mexico City and after 21 years on the island, very much loves Cozumel. It is apparent with the passion he has. Food was excellent. Beers were great and not mass produced. Worth the price for sure!

Local Gems - Food was good, drinks were good. Guide was knowledgeable and friendly and her English was perfect. If you love food and want to branch outside of the tourist traps, this tour is a great way to introduce yourself to good local spots.
