Great guide, great food!

5.00Roberto was a fantastic guide and took us on such a wonderful journey through Guatemalan food. He sprinkled in stories of history, culture, and legends (after hearing my fascination with the macabre). Also every spot we went was filled with locals and we likely would have missed them without his expertise.
Honeymoon private street food tour

5.00Roberto was our guide and he was so great! He took us all over the city and we got to try some things we otherwise wouldn’t have. He was very knowledgeable about the history of Antigua as well. My wife and I were on our honeymoon and we were lucky enough to be the only ones on this tour, so it was like our own private tour! I think that heightened the experience. I highly recommend booking this tour while you’re in Antigua!
Antigua is beautiful, okay food tour.

3.00I wish we would've tried more food and had more options. The stops seemed random at times. We didn't try everything that was listed on the itinerary just a few items. The guide was really nice but somewhat unorganized. He mentioned he was really tired from a previous tour that day, and you could tell. I think for the price you can probably find a better tour or just try food on your own. It was expensive for what it was. The food we did try was good but the main highlight was the nice guide. Overall I would've wanted more structure and to try food listed on the itinerary.

5.00Really enjoyed this active, interesting tour with Roberto where we broke away from tourist traps and ate lots of delicious real food snd even took a jaunt on a chicken bus to the big market. Wear sturdy walking shoes for cobblestones, hat and sunscreen also good idea.

5.00We had the most amazing day with JJ. His love, knowledge & passion for his community was remarkable. We learned so much from while also eating fantastic food and having a great time. We even got to take a Chicken Bus!
Absolutely a Must-Do on Your First or Second Day in Antigua.

5.00This food tour was the highlight of my trip in Antigua. Our guy was warm, curious, and super informative. We learned about architecture, history, culture, and of course, food. We visited monuments, markets, food stalls, restaurants, and left with a million recommendations for additional places to eat and visit. I can't recommend this tour enough for someone who has just arrived in Antigua and wants to get the lay of the city and learn about the local cuisine with friendly and informative people. I have done food tours in Japan, Singapore, Turkey, and Morocco, and this was hands down my absolute favorite for the way our guide incorporated history and culture and even a chicken-bus ride into our itinerary.
Excellent introduction to Antigua

5.00Felix & Bernie were great hosts for the street food walking tour. We ate many delicious tropical fruits, tostada, tamal, rellenito, etc. They even got mini bags of mixed "dulce tipicos" for us to take home. Aside from the food it was also a good overview of some of Antigua's history. Definitely recommend!
Good tour but not with the money

4.00While my partner and I enjoyed the tour and our guide was extremely engaging, I do not believe that this tour offer good value for the money. The truth is that Guatemalan street food is nothing out of the ordinary, and you do not need a guide to figure out what each vendor is selling. My advice is to save your money and try experimenting on your own.
Fantastic!

5.00This was such a great tour! I tasted food I never would have tried and loved all of it. We walked through Antigua, took a chicken bus, and ended up at the market.
Great tour
