Overview

Experience Cozumel the way we'd share it with friends visiting the island — in a small group of no more than 8 guests.

Join a small-group food tour through downtown Cozumel, tasting authentic Mexican dishes at local spots while discovering the stories, culture and everyday life behind them.

We intentionally keep our groups small so there's time to talk, laugh, ask questions and actually get to know each other. This isn't about rushing from one tasting to the next — it's a relaxed three hours of good food, conversation and discovering a side of Cozumel most visitors never experience.

Whether this is your first visit or you've been coming to Cozumel for years, we want you to leave with great memories, new discoveries and the feeling that you spent a few hours exploring the island with local friends.

What's included

  • Cultural & Historical insights about Cozumel
  • Beverages: Traditional Mexican Beverages (Hibiscus-Horchata-Tamarind-Sodas-Water)
  • Traditional Mexican Food Tastings (Tacos-Quesadillas-Tamales-Churros-Ice Cream)
  • Visits to authentic local eateries and hidden gems
  • One beer per person (at select stops, when available)
  • Transportation to & from meeting point
  • Tips & gratuities for your guide
  • Additional food or drinks not part of the planned tastings

What to expect

Discover the flavors and everyday life of Cozumel on a relaxed 3-hour small-group walking food tour through downtown.

Step away from the typical tourist spots and explore the island the way we would with friends visiting Cozumel. Along the way, visit family-run eateries and local favorites while tasting authentic Mexican dishes and learning about the people, traditions, history, and stories behind them.

Depending on the day, tastings may include tacos, quesadillas, tamales, birria, seafood, traditional drinks, and a sweet local treat.

With a small group, there’s plenty of time to talk, ask questions, and get to know your local host. Whether this is your first visit to Cozumel or you’ve been here before, our goal is for you to experience a side of the island most visitors never see.

Come hungry — and leave feeling like you spent a few hours exploring Cozumel with local friends.
