Great tacos!

All the tacos were excellent on the tour! Our guide Rebecca did an amazing job, and it was her first tour on her own! I highly recommend the horchata!

This is a scam - stay away

This is a scam. After payment went through, I sent a message and called the number provided and never received an answer. I showed up at the meeting point and called again, but nothing. They also had my contact info and never reached out. They took my money and never showed up. Fortunately, I booked with Paypal so I can request a refund.

Tasty tacos

Samantha was a friendly guide with strong English proficiency, we thought she was great. We enjoyed the variety of taco stalls they took us too with just the right amount of walking in between. I would like if the tour had some information about any historic things in the neighborhood, but I know the other tours Kaktus offers are more for that.

Perfect way to taste the city

Tomas was our excellent guide and SO knowledgeable. My friends and I were shown a variety of different tacos as well as told about the history of food and the city. It was a perfect way to get to know the city, highly recommend doing this tour and doing it early in your trip.
