Overview

Most visitors to Cancún never experience the city beyond the beach. This evening tour pulls you away from the Hotel Zone and into downtown Cancún, where local markets and late-night street vendors reveal the city’s real food culture.

Think of this as an edible crash course in Cancún’s flavours. Over four hours and 15+ tastings, you’ll eat your way through the dishes locals eat after dark, discovering why the city is far more than white sand and resorts. This isn't about fine dining. If you want to see, and taste, the real Cancún, this takes you right to beloved local dishes and the vendors that sell them.

What's Included

  • Movable food feast with 8-9 stops around Downtown Cancun
  • 15+ food tastings included, more than any other Cancun food tour
  • Max 8 exclusive guests, smallest group size in Cancun (private tour or 9+ guests, contact us)
  • Alcoholic drinks excluded
  • Pick up and drop off from hotel excluded
  • Some dietary restrictions unsuitable including vegetarian and vegan diets

What To Expect

Cancun

Our Cancun food tour offers guests a culinary experience around the city's medina. It's a carefully curated food adventure, led by our team of Cancun tastemakers.Before we get started, our tour reflects the local cuisine, and the limitations of street food vendors and local eateries mean we cannot cater for every dietary restriction. Here's an honest appraisal for the tour, so no-one is disappointed:✘ Unsuitable for vegetarian, vegan, pescatarian, no pork diet and lactose intolerance as the number of tastings would be very limited. ✔ Gluten intolerance, mild nut allergies and no seafood diets are possible, though some tastings do not have alternatives availableIf you are feeling adventurous for a foodie journey, read on!

The experience visits neighbourhood markets, taco carts, and family-run eateries, offering 15+ tastings that showcase the city’s most authentic flavours away from the resorts.Along the way, you’ll sample a wide range of Mexican favourites, including crusty tortas filled with slow-roasted lechón pork, comforting bowls of Guerrero-style pozole with hominy, and charcoal-grilled beef tacos fresh from the fire. The tastings continue with refreshing chilli-spiked nieves, classic Mexican flan, and local mezcal ice cream finished with a spirited drizzle, among many more.Although Cancún is a relatively young city, its food culture reflects traditions brought by migrants from across Mexico.
