Spend about four hours in Puerto Morelos with guides such as Karina, Carlos, or Maui, sampling fish, shrimp, chicken, veggie, smoked-meat, and Yucatecan pork tacos. You will also visit the main square, browse the craft market, taste tequila, and choose a natural-flavor ice cream.

“We had a wonderful experience — the service was excellent from start to finish, including a helpful confirmation call the day before. Of all our excursions during the week, this company was by far the most communicative and organized. This tour is run by the same company that does the popular snorkel trips. About 90% of people chose snorkeling that day, and only four of us did the taco tour — which honestly made it feel more personal. The town of Puerto Morelos ended up being my favorite area of the entire trip: charming, walkable, and full of small-town character. We visited two taco restaurants; both were good. I’d rate…”

“The biggest problem with this trip was our guide was on drugs or something. His eyes were all hazed over, and he had issues walking. At first, we thought we would just go along with the flow ..we made it to the tequila tasting which they wanted you to buy but wanted you to pay 4 times the actual cost. Our guide stepped away after that event, and when he returned was worse than he was before. We then politely said we were done for the evening and did not finish. When I complained they offered us $30 for the last two places we didn't visit. I and my friends…”

The meeting point was easy to find and Osvaldo was a great host. He was very informative as we learned so much about Mexico and him! The first location made me feel like a true local and I am still dreaming about those tacos. All the people we interacted with at the locations were friendly and helpful.

6.Cancun Taco & Mexican Food Tour with Tequila Tasting

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

Spend about four hours eating through downtown Cancun, from Baja seafood tacos and blue-corn quesadillas to carne asada and a Jalisco specialty. The tour includes a tequila tasting at Mercado 28, soft drinks, and five food stops, though some departures have included only four. Hotel transfers cost extra.

“This tour was disappointing because although the website stated they could accommodate vegetarians, 2 out of the 4 restaurants we visited did not have a veggie option so I had just guacamole at the first restaurant. If they cannot accommodate, they should just state this up front and I could have avoided this tour. The food that I was able to eat was good and my friends enjoyed their food.”
