Description

Step away from the resort zone and dive into Cancún’s true culinary spirit. This guided walking experience takes you through the city’s traditional downtown, where families shop, vendors cook, and local culture pulses through every street.

 Your tour begins at a quiet park beside Mercado 23, where you’ll enjoy a slow-roasted lechón pork sandwich paired with a tropical pineapple rice drink.
 As you wander through the backstreets, you’ll taste Yucatán’s iconic lime soup, known for its bright flavor and comforting spices.

 At the lively Mercado 28, you’ll sample a classic panucho topped with cochinita pibil, layered with beans, marinated pork, and crisp toppings. A signature surprise tasting follows—crafted just for our guests.

 From there, your guide leads you to the cultural hub of Cancún, where you’ll try a golden, freshly fried quesadilla stuffed with cheese and grilled beef. The experience concludes with a creamy Mexican fruit paleta, the perfect treat to cool off while enjoying everyday local life.

 Authentic, flavorful, and immersive, this tour offers a true taste of Cancún beyond the beaches.
