“First of all, our resort wasn’t one of their pickup spots but I decided to reach out to their support and see if they could pick us up. They agreed, and I am so glad they did. This is a great taco tour, with Diego telling us the history and it being a relaxing experience. I am glad we got Diego! Come hungry, and make sure to try the horchata! Diego will tell you which stop has the best horchata!”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 116 reviews · 6 hours (approx.)

Review of Cancun’s small-group ATV, five zip-line, cenote, taco lunch, and tequila tour, with practical tips on cost, transport, and effort.

“This excursion was one of the highlights of our trip to Cancun. We booked the tour based on the great reviews we were seeing. The cost is a little more than some of the other options but all the positive reviews helped us make our choice. The company communicated with us the day before our tour to coordinate pick-up time at our hotel and answer any questions we had. Vanessa was our guide and she was awesome! She picked me, my wife, and my son up at our hotel on time and we had one other couple in the van with us. The van was air conditioned and comfortable. Vanessa…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 71 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $79

Taste downtown Cancún through tacos, blue-corn quesadillas, carne asada, tequila, and local eateries on a four-hour guided food tour.

“Sadly the street food consisted of 4 types of tacos, I’m certain there is much more to street food that that. Portions were good and flavourful, soft drink options were varied to. The most enjoyable was our third venue where we had a beef/goat broth and a filled taco to dip in to it. I wouldn’t recommend this as it was too repetitive.”

The beer was good and the final stop for some homemade churros was an added delight… we were so full we decided to share a bag!”
