Ten stars! We had an amazing time and the food was simply delicious. Our guide Leo was great, he took us to places where as a tourist you would rarley wander to but boy would you miss out. The food was excellent at all the stops and by the end of our tour we were really full. Leo also knew a lot of stuff about the food, Merida or Mexico in general and we had a lot of fun

We had an amazing time with Alex! He showed us places we would have never found without him. His enthusiasm for the Mexican food was catching and inspiring. We ate the best tacos and tortillas ever!!! Really glad we had this experience! We definitely recommend the tour to everyone! Stefan and Ines

Since only the two of us were registered, we got a private tour. Iveth was a great guide, told us a lot about the city, culture and food. We tried and ate a lot and it was all in all a great experience!

Alex was a fantastic guide. Loved the tour, and his knowledge of the culture and cuisine was superb. He took us to places we would never have gone otherwise. Highly Recommend!

It was just really hot. Overall a good experience.
