We'll start out experience trying aguas frescas
At this stop, we will dive into birria, a rich, slow-cooked stew from Jalisco. Made with tender, marinated meat and a blend of chilies and spices, birria is celebrated for its bold, savory flavors. Served with fresh onions, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime, this dish is a true taste of Mexican tradition.
At this stop, we will enjoy sopes topped with carnitas, a delicious duo that highlights traditional Mexican street food. Sopes are thick, hand-pressed corn cakes with a slight crisp, layered with refried beans, fresh lettuce, and crumbled cheese. Topping it all off are juicy, tender carnitas—slow-cooked, flavorful pork that melts in your mouth. Each bite offers a perfect blend of textures and rich, authentic flavors!
At this stop, we’ll savor Baja-style fish tacos, a coastal classic known for its fresh, vibrant flavors. Soft corn tortillas are filled with crispy, golden-battered fish, topped with fresh cabbage, a hint of lime, and a drizzle of creamy sauce. This light and refreshing taco brings the perfect taste of Mexico’s seaside cuisine!
At this stop, we’ll dive into a variety of tacos de guisado, each filled with flavorful stews like beef, chicken, or pork, slow-cooked with spices and herbs. These hearty fillings are served in warm corn tortillas, topped with fresh onions and cilantro. We’ll also enjoy a rich mole—a savory-sweet sauce made from chilies, chocolate, and spices—adding a deep, complex flavor to the tacos that’s a true Mexican delight!
At this stop, we’ll indulge in paletas, a refreshing Mexican ice pop made from fresh fruit, creamy milk, or even chocolate. With a variety of flavors to choose from, including mango, strawberry, and coconut, each bite offers a cool, sweet treat that’s perfect for finishing off your tour with a burst of flavor!.

Arlin was amazing tour guide! She was on time to meet us at a very easy to find location. She took us to so many local spots. Everything we ate was delicious. Arlin told us about the local culture and answered all our questions. Whatever you do make sure to go with an empty stomach, you will not leave hungry!!
Arlene was the absolute best! We ended up just my husband and I and we had some wonderful conversations and got to know our host. We went to some fabulous hidden gems where the food and people were wonderful! She took Our food preferences and did an amazing job of ordering our food how we liked each time. The food was amazing and we felt like we were eating where the locals go! Highly recommend, we def found a couple gems to go back to.

Arlene was wonderful,very friendly,informative and her English was perfect,since our Spanish is not. The food was delicious and very authentic. We would recommend her tour.
Wonderful guide, friendly and knowledgeable. Lots of yummy food and a real taste of the local food. No rush and a perfect amount of time to experience a tasting all the way to dessert.
Kiki was a great tour guide. Loved going into the variety of restaurants and all the different authentic foods we got to try. The juice drink was delicious. Big hit for all in our party. Walk was about a mile and a quarter, sidewalks are a little dicey so wear comfortable shoes.
This was fantastic and very informative!!! Got extremely full. Marlene the guide was sooooo great!!!
Make sure you are super hungry and don’t eat everything at the first few stops to save room for all the upcoming food.
