5.00Awesome to learn more about Nicaragua history & gastronomy. Oscar was a wealth of knowledge…and gracious enough to do a 1:1 tour on a Saturday morning. Definitely worth the time if you’re in León!
It was great!

5.00Our tour guide Oscar was awesome. We highly recommend. Do the tour at the beginning of your stay in Leon because Oscar gives great information about the history and culture of the area too.
Wonderful and full of flavor

5.00I usually don't bother to write reviews (I know I should lol) but the local food tour in Leon was phenomenal! Oscar made the tour exceptional! His knowledge of Leon and all of Nicaragua looked at through the lens of food was wonderful. It was focused on traditional food from not only the current population but also expanded to the indigenous cuisine. Wonderful! Thank you Oscar for a great tour. If you are thinking of taking this tour I would recommend asking for Oscar.
Great food tour

5.00We had a wonderful time with Oscar. He shared so many informations with us and it’s been the perfect start to get introduced to the food in Nicaragua. He choose great samples and we had a wonderful time with him. It was more hanging out with a friend than being on a tour. Everything he showed us was very delicious.
