The tour was the highlight of the trip! Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable about the food and the history. He was so entertaining, and the food was FABULOUS! I was full halfway through, but couldn’t stop eating, especially when we got to the tamales! What a great time! Not only does the guide entertain, but she also feeds you! We were treated like VIP’s everywhere. This was absolutely the memorable.

Our guide was excellent and super nice, the vendors we went to were great and selected by the company with care, and our group was small enough to work really well. Don't eat breakfast beforehand - you will eat A LOT during the tour! Highly recommended.
