What to Expect from our Playa del Carmen Taco and Beer Tour

Start your experience with a prompt and comfortable hotel pick up. Meet your friendly English speaking local guide, who will escort you through the whole tour. 

Our tour is hosted by a professional Mexican chef, who will share city’s history, the story behind each spot we’re visiting and interesting facts about prehispanic ingredients we still use in Mexican cuisine (and that you’ll try).

In addition, we’ll point to the principal Playa del Carmen landmarks as we move through. Live an authentic local atmosphere in every place while tasting our selection of tacos. 

Expect to skip the line and a reserved table in each stop:

  1. Mexico City “Suadero” street style taco.
  2. “Cochinita Pibil”. Pulled pork marinated mayan-yucatecan style.
  3. “Birria”, as seen in Tik Tok.  Slow-cooked meat stew is marinated in aromatic red chiles and served up with melted cheese tacos.
  4. Prepare your own “Taco al Pastor” in the most iconic Mexican restaurant in Playa del Carmen.
  5. Try the best  regional dessert, the “Marquesita”. Rolled crispy crepe stuffed with cheese and your favorite topping.

The secret behind any taco is the salsa. A wide variety of sauces are offered as sides, from mild to spicy.

4 refreshing drinks are included (1 in each stop), plus complimentary ice cold Mexican beers on board of the van. If you’re not into beer, natural flavored wáter and soft drinks are also available.

Last but not least, we’ll offer free time to stroll around at a local park and the world famous Quinta Avenida, before heading back to your hotel.

Take your tour early in your vacation so that you can return to the spots you enjoyed most, and also to make a few new foodie friends along the way!

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, all our food tours include pick up/drop off from your hotel to the different restaurants that will be included in your tour. We provide private vans with A/C, they’re comfortable enough for the whole party, and are driven by a certified driver.

We allow you to schedule changes only if Cancunfoodtours.com is provided with a 24-hour notice before the date of your tour. For full refund cancellations, we require Cancunfoodtours.com to be notified 7 days in advance. If the tour is cancelled before a 24-hour notice, only a 50% refund will take place. Unfortunately, if the tour is cancelled after that 24-hour mark, we can’t provide a refund.

Our tours are mostly made for adults 18+, kids 10+ and we strongly recommend to respect the restriction since we want the tour to be pleasant to all our guests.

Mexican food is full of flavor and some of our plates are made with some spices that might be considered strong. However, our chefs have prepared less-mild versions of each plate to avoid any unpalatable flavors that can be enjoyable for everyone without any risk.

We can provide substitutions for vegetarians & spicy food considerations as we’ve explained. However, we cannot provide substitutions for any other allergies or dietary preferences. Allergies and preferences must be indicated at the time of ticket purchase. Please notify us of any serious allergies so we can tell you which food(s) to avoid.

Some of the restaurants are between a 15-min walking distance of each other. Which is why we provide transportation for the entirety of the tour. This will make the experience more comfortable.
