Eat like a local on this small-group food tour which offers a thorough introduction to Mexican cuisine and the authentic dishes of the Yucatan in Playa del Carmen. Visit and eat at places that are far from the tourist mainstays. A great experience for adventurous food lovers.

The fact that the tour took place off the beaten path meant we got to interact with locals at local eateries (food carts). We learned a lot about the culture and the people instead of just being tossed a few tacos and told it was "Mexican" fare.

Our guide was knowledgeable and well spoken. We enjoyed each location and discovered many things we wouldn't have otherwise tried. Xhantal was organized, pleasant and professional. The tips provided will be useful in the future. Overall well done, thankyou from all of us.

This walking food tour was unreal. Make sure you arrive hungry! Chantal was super friendly and informative. Providing great knowledge and history about the area and the food carts. There are strict health guidelines the food carts must adhere to, that she explained very clearly. We all loved it so much. We went to a beautiful market as part of the tour and introduced to the Mexican cuisine, produce and chilis. It was a hot day and the drinks and short taxi ride were included. Not a huge amount of walking which suited us in the heat. My favorite cart was the quesabirria. And at one stop chose a hibiscus juice that was refreshing and cold. The fresh tortillas were so good. We went to about 5-6 carts and restaurant and a frozen popsicle shop. Our only regret is that we left this tour until almost the last day, so we couldn’t return to the carts. Next time I will book a cooking class as well.

This is my second Playa Del Carmen Food Tour with this company. We were so fortunate to get Xantal as our guide again this year. I can’t say enough about how amazing she is and informative she was an about the Mexican culture and food. She took us to some great local spots and also a local food market. We loved every minute of it. I definitely recommend this tour and ask for Xantal. You won’t regret it!

Xantal led our group - 6 adults - on a food tour in Playa del Carmen. We visited 6 food carts, a food market, a restaurant, and an ice pop/ice cream stand. At each food cart Xantal described the food prepared and the accompanying sauces, spices, and sides. She shared the history of the food and talked about how the food cart system works. She described the history and economy of Playa del Carmen and shared with us Mexican history and culture. The market visit was really neat to see and smell the dried chilis.
The food was DELICIOUS! Best tacos ever! Pozole. Yum!
Xantal was a great guide. Personable, friendly. If I return to Playa del Carmen, I will take this tour again.
PS - Follow the advice to come hungry. Do not eat breakfast! : )

This tour is amazing. Xantal was our guide and we were the only people who booked for the day. We were really lucky that they still provided us the tour. Xantal took us to try 7 delicious foods, mostly from street food stands. As tourists, we would not have been able to find this food without her so it was truly a unique experience. Going above and beyond your typical “taco tour” we tried many other authentic Mexican cuisine from around the country. She clearly loves food and has so much knowledge to share about Mexican culture and cuisine. This was a last minute booking for us and it was so fun and delicious. We recommend this tour to anyone visiting Playa del Carmen and the cooking classes offered by them also sound amazing.
