The best walking food tour that we have taken. Carlos is knowledgable and passionate about his Valladolid and Mayan heritage and the food that brings people together. He is also relatable as he spent some time on the Canadian prairies for his education.
We would highly recommend this tour for its wonderful food, history of the region and the exemplary tour guide.

Eddy is an amazing guide. He is an Oaxacan native, fluent in Spanish and English, and knows a lot about the food culture. He showed us around Oaxaca, and we tasted many different types of food throughout the city. We ate so much, better to skip lunch! He also showed us markets and gave us a list of other local foods to try in the future. We love his enthusiasm and really recommend him!

Very friendly guide
Tour was amazing and could not ask for a better host than Lalo! Lalo has great knowledge of puerto Escondido and its food culture, he’s passionate about his home and made us feel so welcome. The food was unreal and Lalos selection of different spots is 10/10, definitely don’t eat before the tour; there was so much food to eat across the 6 or 7 different places. Would recommend this tour to ANYONE, great value for money, great host and great food!

Our tour guide, Andrea, was very friendly and was always happy to answer our questions about anything we happened to be passing. You certainly get a very large amount of very tasty food. We were full to the brim by the end and couldn't have eaten another thing, but it was all delicious, and Andrea was able to tell us interesting things about everything we ate.
Highly reccomend this tour

Josmar was an excellent guide! He was very personable and had a ton of knowledge of the local food and history. He took us to places off the beaten path and made recommendations of his favorite items to get. This is our second visit to Oaxaca and even though we have been here before Josmar took us to markets and street we had never been to. So weather this is you first visit or not. I highly recommend this tour!
Our guide was Alex. He was excellent, tolerant, caring, kind, and very pleasant conversationalist. He took us to taste great Mexican food and many types of food explaining everything. Highly recommend. He spared no expense. It was very interesting and, fun.
