What a perfect way to get a tour of the city! Not only did Laura teach us all about Merida she took us to incredible places for food. Between restaurants and the market we tried places we never would’ve know to try. All the food was amazing and would definitely recommend this to anyone traveling to Merida!

Wonderful walking tour of Merida. Got us into market where we probably would not have gone (we are not Spanish speakers) to enjoy some delicious food and fruit drinks. Also learned some about culture and history of city. We would definitely recommend.

Manuel was an excellent guide who gave us an insider’s view of food and culture in Mérida. He was very friendly and knowledgeable. We visited local market food shops that I would never try on my own. I highly recommend!
