Excellent activity- would recommend! - We booked the taco and beer tour for one evening of our trip. We received prompt communication of the booking and pickup time, and they arrived exactly when they said they would! Our tour was with Diego who was brilliant. We felt immediately relaxed and excited for our evening out, he had lovely friendly manner. It was about 30 mins to our first destination, but the van was lovely and air conditioned so we didn't mind! Diego explained the evening in great detail and what to expect. Our first stop was a lovely little family friendly place where we tried conchita pibil with aqua fresca, which was spectacular. Second stop had two different tacos and beer and third stop birria, my favourite! We also saw the market and had churros from a street vendor. All the food was brilliant and I felt very safe and comfortable the whole visit. I would definitely recommend this to anyone and we will book another trip with them next time we visit!

Taco Tour in Cancun - Alejandro (Alex) made us feel like family. He explained how each taco is prepared, the variety of salsas and drinks provided at each restaurant. I'm Mexican and love authentic tacos and these were phenomenal. We tried Marquesitas for the first time and it was delicious (crepe like filled with Nutella and cheese)

Something fun and different in Cancun! - My group of 12 adults took a taco tour with Diego and Angel and had such a great time! Diego was very knowledgeable and gave us lots of fun information. The tour was definitely more focused on the food vs drinks although beer was offered at 2 out of the 4 stops. We had Aqua Fresca and bottled Coke at 1 stop and the last stop was churros from a street cart. Some of the best tacos I’ve ever eaten and three hours well spent on our vacation. Thank you so much!

Short notice for vendor cancellation - We were scheduled to take the Taco Tour in Cancun. The tour was cancelled due to insufficient number of participants. I never received a call or text to let me know. I did go into my email where I finally found an email cancelling the trip just a couple hours before our pick-up was scheduled. I would have appreciated more of an effort to reach me or an earlier cancellation notice since all of my information was provided to the operator through Viator. It left us scrambling to make another plan for dinner at our resort where most restaurants require a reservation. We were offered full refund or a chance to rebook since we’d already paid for the tour in full. We opted not to take the chance and just cancelled.
