Get to know Playa del Carmen via its food

The tour was extremely fun and informative. Coco was personable and very informative. The information and history he gave provided the soul to Playa del Carmen via its food, arts and people. I would recommend start your vacation with this tour to get a nice intro to PDC. We were SO stuffed after the tour, definitely come hungry.

We had an amazing time on this tour! Coco was friendly and very knowledgeable. It was also great getting out of the touristy scenes to experience more local eateries. Thank you for a lovely experience!! Coco also made my sister’s birthday a nice experience.

Disappointing
Becky_C
, May 2021
Our tour guide was interactive, engaging, and friendly! However, the experience/tour itself was very disappointing. I think this tour would be appropriate for $20 USD max, not $54!. Each food sample (1 mushroom quesadilla, 1 enchilada, 2 street tacos, and a homemade popsicle) would normally cost about 15 pesos each. I don't think the 2 hour walking tour was worth 1,000 pesos. I've been lucky enough to enjoy some street tacos/quesadillas prior to this tour. So I thought the price was outrageous for what was included on the tour. No sides, no variety, and only option for a beverage was flavored water that we were able to sample and carry (this was good to sample though). I also thought information about the history/culture was lacking.

Awesome food, great street art, knowledgeable and locally passionate about the heart of the city
Tes

Coco was a friendly and knowledgeable guide. He took us to some spots very nearby (Fifth Ave) that we would've never knew existed. Local spots within a few blocks Inland... But the taste was so much more than the larger restaurants we previously experienced. We took my 14yo. She loved the desserts and juices along with the street art. I highly recommend this tour to find the true culture/heart of the city. Coco shared the street art history and offered delicious food we would've never tried without him.
