HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Belizean Bites lunch food tour was awesome and worth the money. Definitely ask for Melva our guide - Melva was fabulous, entertaining, knowledgeable, and super friendly. You can go at your own pace depending on how many drinks you get, but our 8-people family tour lasted ~2 hours. Great food and perfect authentic experience.
Litzy was an amazing tour host! We enjoyed the history lesson that came along with each local restaurant that we visited. Everything was delicious!
Lots of great food samples.. best to avoid a normal to large breakfast on the lunch tour. You get a basic staples and the guide was very knowledgeable of its background and origins.
This was such a fun excursion for us and we were grateful to learn about the history and variety of Belizean cuisine while we were here in San Pedro. We loved having Melva as a host - so knowledgeable and interesting. Thank you!
Jamil, our tour guide, was amazing. he gave us great insight into some of the history and the culture. He explained how all the food was connected. He was also very personable and had a lot of funny teasers. All the food we tasted was delicious. It was a great tour, and we highly recommend this tour!
Everything about this experience was 10/10. Food was delicious with nice size portions to sample. Not too much walking and we received drinks at each stop. It was also my mom’s birthday so they surprised her with a brownie at the end of the tour. Highly recommend if you’re visiting San Pedro.
We had the pleasure of having Jamil as our tour guide and he was nothing short of amazing ! Very knowledgeable and passionate about his job and he helped us explore true Belizean culture and cuisine! Make sure you book my guy Jamil !!!!
We had an amazing time! Melva was a fantastic guide. She was personable, friendly, and thoughtful. taught us a lot of about local cuisine!
Come hungry! Jamil was absolutely amazing and I am so happy we did this tour. We got to experience some of the local spots that isn’t always highlighted on social media. I was a small group and every spot had a little history and absolutely amazing food! Book this tour if you want authentic great food and experience.
Food stops were great choices. Really gave you taste of the island. Our bellies were full and we had drinks as well. Tour guide, Jamil, was charismatic and funny. Great conversations with him. We would highly recommend this tour.
