Delicious and fun! - Wonderful sampling of local flavors! Our guide Adrian was knowledgeable and accommodating. It was great to walk between food stops to help digest! We sampled delicious enchiladas with flavorful mole, a quesabirria (fried corn tortilla shell filled with tender beef), flavorful carnitas, and fabulous fish tacos! Started with Agua Frescas and ended with ice cream bars. Come hungry!

Eat like a local - There may be no better way to begin a vacation than a walking food tour like this. Our guide, Diana, clearly enjoys sharing the "unknown" side of town and the dives where locals get the best eats. We met two other cool couples and, together with them experienced some of the most wholesome, authentic dishes to be found. If you want to eat like a local, not just on the tour but throughout your vacation, take advantage of opportunities like this where a local with a passion for the area will introduce you to their favorite spots. Muchas gracias, Diana.

Eat.Love.Learn about San Jose del Cabo! - Do.this.tour. I gave it 5 circles but it demands higher. The food, the insight, the walking tour - all were world class. And Lizette, with superb English skills and culinary insight, as well as local stories and lore, made the three hours go by too quickly. Oh…and the food. Beginning with Aguas Fresca, we knew we were in for a series of great flavors. We enjoyed a local mole unlike any I have ever tasted - sweet, savory. and rich! This was followed after a short walk by Birria (go with Lizette - she can explain it better than me). And then Carnitas in a place that specializes in carnitas. And yes, they were special. Then. The perfect fish tacos - in a place where you need to eat and enjoy fish tacos. Perfectly crisp and with numerous types of toppings. Lizette kept us informed, energized and well fed throughout the experience. And we finished some of the most unique popsicle treats on a stick. Who ever heard of a mango and chili popsicle? Yep - had one and it was an amazing and fun flavor - sweet, cold, and a little spicy. Go with Eating with Carmen — they know where this special place is. Overall exactly what we wanted - and at a great time. Our tour began at 10, and finished at 1. On the dot. They also have tours in the afternoon. Don’t pass up this opportunity to learn about local flavors and San Jose Del Cabo. Your taste buds will thank you!

Relaxed way to try small local foods - Very laid back tour of small out of the way local restaurants in San Jose del Cabo Our guide, Diana, was very friendly and knowledgeable - I appreciated her warnings about the uneven sidewalks! We strolled from place to place and had some amazing food. My favorite was the mole’ and sopas but I enjoyed the initial horchata and the watermelon ice at the end too. A lovely way to try small local food vendors. Thank you!

Lovely guides, feel the food experiece choices could have been more varied. - We truly enjoyed our tour guides Adrien and Arlin and we were lucky there were just the two of us on the tour. We feel there could have been more variety in the food choices offered and more of a mix between the local and perhaps at least one of the higher end food choices. Truy it was a variety of mexican tortilla based dishes with differnt fillings and a juice and fruit popsicle dessert. It was a nice walk but was hoping we might have learned a bit more about the history and culture of the area while walking.
