Great tour to try authentic local food! - Gerardo gave us a wonderful tour during my husband's birthday, and we loved that we got to try authentic local food, and not the generic stuff you find in the touristic areas. Thank you for making this such a wonderful experience!

Outstanding experience! - Erin was fantastic, her knowledge of the area’s culture and history was limitless. The restaurants, off the beaten path, were staffed by warm and welcoming staff. The food was fresh and deliciously prepared with plenty of variety. A lovely experience-thank you!

A tasty tour! - Our guide Erin was fabulous! She was so knowledgeable about the food, spices, and drinks! It was just my husband and I with her, so it was really personalized. She knew all of the off the beaten path places and their specialities - tacos, soups, whole fried fish, and pastries. We especially enjoyed the local market visit with the fruits, vegetables, seafood, meats, and spices. We didn't realize there were multiple ports for the ships to dock and had a long walk to the meeting location, so know where you are docking and take a taxi! This was a fantastic excursion!

You’ve got to do this tour! - Jeraldo and Johnny (the driver) were FANTASTIC!! All the food and drinks we had were amazing, authentic, and super fresh. I’d highly recommend that you get off the tourist strip and participate in this tour!!!! We were always dropped at the front door, had lots of choices, were surrounded by lots of wonderful people, and we learned SO MUCH! Don’t make dinner reservations for this night; it’s a lot of food and you won’t be hungry. Thank you Jeraldo, you were unbelievably great as a guide! ❤️
