Great Intro to Playa del Carmen Street food scene

Stuart_G, Jan 2023

The wonderful introductory and explanatory talks re: food, foodie culture and local culture and history given by the gracious and generous guide not to mention the delicious and varied food offerings and experiences. Great from beginning to end.

Fancisco is Excellent and so is the tour!

Kourtney_M, Jan 2021

Francisco was an amazing tour guide. He showed us parts of PDC we would have never found or thought to venture into. We had so many food options and opportunities for seconds at multiple stops. We learned about the history of Mexico and PDC, and also new changes that are happening. Francisco even walked us to the shopping area we wanted to go to, waited while we exchanged our money, and gave us tips while shopping in the area. Francisco is really your friend in PDC. Take the tour you won't regret it at all!

Food and cultural tour of Playa Del Carmen

gwbowers, Feb 2020

We toured with Francisco in Wednesday, February 5, 2020. The food experience was wonderful, and Francisco gave us an amazing amount of information on Mayan culture and the history of Playa Del Carmen. We really enjoyed our tour, and would highly recommend it!
