Highly recommended - a fantastic tour - We had a fantastic time on this tour, which was so much fun. Sara is very knowledgeable and a fantastic host. The markets were amazing and it was great to try so many different foods, even the grasshopper sauce! Everything was very tasty and gave us a real insight into Mexican and Oaxacan cuisine. I would strongly recommend this tour, it’s great value and a fantastic day out.

Wonderful street food tour! - This tour was worth every penny. I am vegetarian and my husband is not. Our guide was very accommodating to my dietary restrictions. She explained a lot about the history of Oaxacan food. I thought we were going to get small samplings of food but I was wrong. We got so many different food items and got decent portions as well. I made the mistake of eating breakfast that day. I would recommend skipping a meal before you go on this tour because you will be very well fed. Exceptional guide and amazing food! I am so happy I had this experience.

For a great food tour, sign up for this one!!! - This was so much fun!! Sara is a local who knows her history of the food in the area ( and is also a vegetarian). We went to an organic market, organic restaurant and other markets. We learned about Tlayudas, loved them and ate them in other cities. We had great mole and tasted mescal. And we even tried grasshoppers and learned why they are part of the diet. This tour was educational, tasty, interesting and Sara was delightful. When we travel we always try to include a food tour and all agreed this was one of the best. Do not hesitate to sign up for this,

Engaging and delicious! - What a fantastic way to spend half a day in Oaxaca. Would recommend taking this tour in the first couple days in the city to get a sense of the area, and feel more confident navigating its markets. We explored several markets and saw quite a bit of the city. Sara’s tour went beyond an intro to food and covered quite a bit of cultural context. Sara was also very accommodating for those who had various dietary preferences and limitations. And it goes without saying that the food was delicious!

Excellent interesting and fun tour - Very enjoyable foodtour. I tasted all kinds of food and drinks that I otherwise would not have tried if we just wandered through the markets by ourselves. We tasted so many different things without overeating. Sara is very nice and her English is excellent.

Sarah was organized, knowledgeable, and created an amazing experience. Can’t stress this enough, come hungry! We covered four markets and a wonderful variety of local fare. This is a tour not to miss! Sarah is an A plus guide.

Wonderful, knowledgeable guide - Our guide, Sarah, took us to markets explaining and showing us new to us foods. She took time to explain the meaning of the murals at the markets too. I'm a vegetarian, and she made sure that I had a good food experience and asked if I would be comfortable around the meat markets and those eating meat.
