Great intro to Mexican food culture

5.00A friend and I attended the walking tour and we both learned quite a bit from our guide Omar. Omar is very knowledgeable not just about food in San Miguel, but also the history of the town and how the evolution of food in Mexico has been impacted by the significant events in its history. My friend and I had a great time and would highly recommend this tour with Omar.

5.00We had an amazing experience with Elisa Torres. She was so knowledgeable about the history of food in central Mexico. We were a large multi-generational family of 9 and she tailored the experience so that everyone was entertained. We’d, without hesitation, recommend this tour and Elisa!

5.00This is a great way to learn a little bit about the history of San Miguel and get introduced to some of the local cuisine. Omar was an awesome guide and storyteller! I recommend doing this tour at the beginning of your visit; San Miguel’s food choices are vast, but this is a great jumping off point, and Omar can set you up with more food experiences and other attractions for the rest of your visit.
Best food
