5.00An excellent historical primer on the city and region, with some fantastic street food (and fruits!) I wouldn’t have known to order or how to eat. Thiago was a great guide: knowledgeable, friendly, good English. Highly recommended.

5.00Tlana was our tour guide. She was so funny and knowledgeable. We enjoyed our tour- we met at plaza las armas, went to the market and tried two stands, and then had tejuino. We walked the city while Tlana explained everything in the center. We enjoyed our time but I do wish we tried more food.

5.00This walking street food tour of Guadalajara was phenomenal! Every stop was a delicious adventure — from savory tacos and birria to refreshing tejuino and sweet treats I’d never even heard of. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing not just food, but the rich history and culture behind each bite. It felt like exploring the city with a local friend who knew all the hidden gems. I left full, happy, and with a whole new appreciation for Jalisco’s culinary scene. If you’re in Guadalajara, this tour is an absolute must!
A good mix of food and history

4.00Less food than history, but that was fine for us. As a private couple we enjoyed the art and architecture and history . There was a festival of dance going on so we took some time to see the dance. Thiago, was very knowlegable about foods and history with many good stories and annecdotes. We saw some very different things and enjoyed the oldest café in Guadalajara. You can make this your tour.
