Dennis was a great tour guide. He communicated well with us before the tour to adjust the time to allow for traffic through the road construction zone. He did a great job of explaining the food dishes and the local culture. The tour was well paced to allow time to enjoy the food without being stuffed. We definitely recommend this tour to others if you love meat and Mexican food.
Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We’re glad we could adjust the timing to make everything smooth and that you enjoyed the food, culture, and relaxed pace of the tour. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we hope to welcome you again soon!
Had a ball experiences 3 local taco joints that were fantastic. Please go. This is worth it.........
Dear Jeffrey Savage, We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your Food Tour and would recommend it to others. Warm regards, Customer Service Land´s End Tours
A wonderful and delicious food tour! Honestly the best food I had in the entire week I was in Cabo. Off the beaten path local spots where families were having their Sunday meal. My tour guide was excellent, and very personable and attentive. Would heartily recommend!
Dennis our tour guide was Great! He likes his job and his food explanations and history of the local communities were the best . Lots of food !
YUM YUM YUM! This is a "delicious" tour. From Pozola Rojo to Taco al Pastor, each plate was unique, homemade, authentic, family secret recipes, and at a small neighborhood restaurants. (I won't tell you the locations. You must take the tour.) The food portions are large. You will be stuffed when it is finished. Our guide, Dennis, explained each dish. How it's made, the unique spices and herbs used, and unique cooking mathods. As we talked with the owners and servers, we saw the pride they take in creating the food and running their business. We ejoyed every moment and hope you will, too!
The booking staff member was very kind and clear. They contacted me on WhatsApp and were so accommodating about our pickup location and time, even when I got confused multiple times about the timezone as the plane gave me the wrong one. Our guide Dennis was great as well, taking us to restaurants we would not have found on our own. I liked this food the best of our whole trip, especially the birria and the lengua and tripa tacos. We were STUFFED though fortunately we were able to take some extras to go. We also did a small tequila and mezcal tasting! 100/10 would recommend
This was an amazing food tour. We learned about the history of San Jose Del Cabo and went to many local favorite hot spots. We tried a variety of traditional meats, soups, tacos and mexican candy. It was delightful experience with air conditioned van and all the water you wanted which was great on a hot day. I would highly recommend this tour. They also took into account my celiac and made sure that I had options that were gluten free.
