Mérida Street Food Rundgang

Great street food tour in Mérida! Diego was a very pleasant guide and took us to places we would never have found on our own. We tasted many delicious local fruits and specialties while exploring the food markets. There was perhaps a bit too much food and the tour could have been slightly shorter. We learned a lot about the Mexican life and food culture. Highly recommended! 🌮

This morning we did a street food tour with Luz, a local guide, through Mérida's market. It was busy, since the schools are on holiday, and between stalls selling clothes, bags, and mopeds, we tasted our way through Mexican cuisine. We also tried unusual (for us) fruits like pitahaya, sapote, and the large Yucatecan avocado (delicious with just sour orange and salt), spicy herb pastes for seasoning meat, and colorful candy made from fruit and meringue. After the market we had ceviche with tacos at a hidden fish restaurant, finishing with ice cream in the most surprising flavors. A really lovely morning full of color, scent, and friendly people. We like it a lot! Luz was very friendly and kind!

Romina did an excelkent job in guiding us the amazing tastes of yucatan!

Excellent activity to get to know the food of Yucatán with an excellent guide, Romina. Thank you for the delicious visit to Mérida and the education on Yucatecan cuisine.

Great stroll through the markets of Merida with Diego to taste local fruits, typical dishes, seasonings, liqueurs, ceviche, and ice creams. Diego is a very friendly and very educational guide.

We joined the Street Food Tour on May 16th with our guide, Diego, and it turned out to be one of the highlights of our trip to Mexico! Since it was the low season, the tour became a private experience for just my husband and me, which made it even more special. Diego introduced us to a wide variety of fruits, meats, and traditional dishes that we had never tried before. The tour took place across several local markets in Mérida, giving us a genuine insight into everyday life in the city. As Belgians, we are sometimes a bit cautious about eating at local markets when we are unfamiliar with the hygiene standards, but we felt completely comfortable throughout the tour and everything was perfectly fine. It was an excellent way to discover the local food culture and get to know the markets from an insider's perspective. Diego was incredibly knowledgeable and shared lots of interesting information about the food, the markets, and local traditions. He was also happy to answer all of our questions, which made the experience even more enjoyable. In short: we highly recommend this tour! If I hear that friends or family are planning a trip to Mérida, I will definitely recommend this company to them.

The tour was fantastic and exceeded all of our expectations. It was important to us that our tour guide spoke fluent English and was an effective communicator. Our tour guide was Diego Hernandez and met both of these requirements. The food was excellent with an assorted variety of fruits and meat. Diego guided through the experience in a relaxed unrushed manner. The tour was excellent value for the price we paid. I would strongly recommend this tour to anyone and everyone. Definitely a fun and rewarding experience

We had such a fun time on the Food Tour. We sampled multiple varieties of mangos and other fruits; enjoyed regional dishes with pork and turkey; ate ceviche; and ended with ice cream! Our guide (Diego Hernandez) spoke perfect English and was very knowledgeable about food from Yucatan. He was also extremely sensitive to our food restrictions. My only "criticism" is that I ate too much - which is on me, not Diego. I recommend this tour (and guide) very highly.

Diego was an incredible guide. We really valued the slow pace and the care and attention he paid to each of us. We discovered and tasted a large variety of seasonal fruit - the mangoes were just delicious. We explored the covered markets, which were a welcome relief from the incessant May heat. Diego made sure we had plenty of water. The panuchos and enchiladas were delicious but the fresh ceviche and gelato were incredible. Thank you Diego for your time and knowledge!

We had a lovely time with our guide Diego, who took us through everything from fruit and vegetables, spices, local delicacies and much more. For us, non-spanish speakers his immaculate English helped us enjoy a lovely, several-hour tour through the food markets.
