We thoroughly enjoyed the food and Alex made the experience entertaining and informative. We were impressed by Alex's breadth of knowledge on Mexican food and ingrediants, and on Puerto Morelos history. We thought the tour was well paced, just when we were getting thirsty and wanted to sit, there was the fresca bar.

We had a great time on our food tour! Our guide Enrique was awesome! We stopped at many places to try all different kinds of foods, drinks, and ended with ice cream. It was the perfect outing with our family. I would recommend this 100% for anyone wanting a little taste of Puerto Morelos.
Fantastic local food, if you want to go to the tourist restaurants pick another booking. We love exploring the local cuisine and Enrique is a great host. Local cuisine, history and culture are all provided here.
We learned so much this morning about the Mayan culture, history, tacos, fruits and vegetables, Agua de fresca, and helado. Enrique was delightful! We loved our walking and tasting tour.
Our guide was very friendly, engaging, knowledgeable of the area and history of the town. Had a great afternoon and got our steps in for sure. Wonderful food and deserts all around. I would highly recommend this experience!
Wow! What a fun experience. Was just me, my Wife and the brilliant Alex, our Tour guide. 3 hours flew by as we meandered through the streets talking history, families and of course working our way through every Mexican food going. We visited street vendors and small family run restaurants. The food was delicious and finished off with an amazing ice cream. Can’t recommend enough and don’t eat before!
Great experience and great food. Great guide!
We had a group of 6 and had a blast on the tour! The food was delicious, Angelica was an awesome tour guide with lots of information. I really enjoyed the experience of trying foods I would probably never try otherwise.
Enrique was fantastic. Prepared, knowledgable, easy to be with. We had a great time. The food was excellent, Highly recommend.
Alex was a great guide! Super friendly and knowledgeable about the area. We enjoyed all of the food, drink and conversation! We went to authentic places away from the beach, which we wouldn't have done otherwise.
The Puerto Morelos Dinner walking food tour was recommended by a friend and I signed my group up for the experience. We all enjoyed an amazing evening of culture, learning how Puerto and the other coastal towns came to be, and so many delicious bites. Christobal is an outstanding guide, welcoming, friendly, interactive, passionate about food, and knowledgeable about the area. He confirmed if we had any allergies or preferences and off we went for a 3 hour experience of flavor. We enjoyed 3 restaurants to taste charcoal cooked chicken, ceviche, and tacos. Each stop had a story about how it came to be. The finale was a sweet bite that ended the evening perfectly. Thank you for a food adventure we will always remember, Christobal!
Great walking tour with stops for delicious authentic Mexican food. Your guide was very friendly and personable.
Great experience! Our guide made us discover the great diversity of tastes oh Mexican/Yucatan cuisine, with extrême précision and humour. He also managed to show how culture, history and food cannot be separated. We do recommand that tour !😉🔥🔥🔥
We did the Eating with Carmen food tour of Playa del Carmen last year and enjoyed it so much we wanted to do another one. This one was just as wonderful. Pace yourself because there was a lot of delicious food! We enjoyed talking with our guide, Enrique, about the history of the area. Definitely put this on your to do list!!!
Enrique was an incredible guide with a lot of knowledge. He took us to some of the most amazing food places I have been to.
We were looking to get off the resort and experience some authentic local food and experience and this absolutely delivered. Diego was a fantastic guide and taught us all about the foods and even about Mayan culture and history. Diego was incredibly friendly and made the whole experience that much more enjoyable. The food was delicious and authentic. We would highly recommend this excursion.
We had a great experience, Henry showed us around local places and we got to try many different mexican dishes. Our favorite dish were the quesadillas - still dreaming about them :)
Had Diego as our tour guide, absolutely amazing!! We loved the food, it was so authentic and wonderful. We enjoyed the conversation, and had basically a private tour because we were the only group on the tour. Really enjoyed talking with Diego, it was as if he was a friend we had known for a while. Overall, would recommend. Amazing company and food
We went to 6 different locations, and each were amazing. Diego was very friendly and told us a lot about local foods and legends. We would definitely do it again!
Our group had a great walking food tour in Puerto Morelos. It was a hot day, but the pace of the tour was perfect to give us time to stop and hydrate. We tried several amazing dishes; tamales, quesadillias, tacos and even had some delicious ice cream to end the tour. Our guide was knowledgeable and friendly. I would highly recommend a food tour with Eating with Carmen!
We had such an amazing food tour in Puerto Morelos with Enrique! Not only was the food delicious, but he also shared fascinating history about the area and the dishes we tasted. If you’re looking for an authentic way to experience the area, I highly recommend booking a food tour with Eating With Carmen.
The food tour was amazing!! Enrique was the best tour guide! I highly recommend Enrique! The number of stops were perfect and the ending with ice cream was perfect.
I would recommend this tour to anyone interested in learning about Mexican cuisine. Our guide Enrique made the tour very enjoyable. The distance between stops was very minimal and the stops very traditional to the area of Puerto Morelos. One recommendation- skip breakfast! You will have plenty to eat.
Such a great history lesson; fine, delicious food; easy walk! Really enjoyed the local flavors and local vendors. Enrique was a delight!
Amazing. Loved loved loved. Definitely recommend. Do not skip this tour. The food was awesome the company even better.
Alejandro was an incredible guide and went above and beyond to show us AMAZING food. He was extremely knowledgeable about not only the food, but the culture, and the history of the area and the people. We are STUFFED. Tried so many different types of food and drinks (cochinita pibil and pulque!) BOOK THIS AND ASK FOR ALEJANDRO
We did a walking tour in Puerto Morelos with Enrique and had a great time. Great variety of food and well paced. Enrique knew a lot about the history of the area. We enjoyed getting away from our resort and walking through the town and eating local food. Highly recommend!
Enrique did an amazing job! Had a nice dose of history of the area and history of the food we were eating, which was delicious! Also easily catered to a vegetarian diet which was much appreciated!
Our tour with Alex was our favorite part of our visit to Mexico! We got to try a number of great local foods—tacos, sopes and quesadillas. Alex was friendly, informative and accommodating, providing us with information about Puerto Morelos, Mexico and the food.
Wir hatten eine grandios Zeit mit Alex, der uns die mexikanische Essenskultur näher gebracht hat! Alle Gerichte die wir probieren durften, haben toll geschmeckt und wir hatten super interessante Gespräche und viel Spaß mit Alex, er ist wirklich ein toller Guide - wir würden die Tour jederzeit weiter empfehlen!
