I had a fantastic tour with Itzel! All the food was delicious, and felt like a unique local establishments. I was soooo full! Itzel is also very knowledgeable about the history and people of Querétaro, and México overall. A fellow world traveler, she has an inquisitive and friendly personality. Her English is excellent, no issues at all understanding or hearing. I learned so much, ate yummy foods, and practiced my Spanish a bit. Definitely recommend. Thanks Itzel! :-)

It was the tacos and tequila experience. We absolutely loved it. Itzel was an amazing tour guide! She was very knowledgeable about the city and gave us good recommendations. We speak a little Spanish and we’re delighted she was able to relay all the information in English! She was one of the best tour guides we’ve ever had. At the end of the trip she offered to pickup our dessert so I could take a short break. Itzel was warm and friendly we would love to do a tour with her again! Ohhh and the food was delicious too!

Itzel is amazing! She took the time to explain the history around downtown Queretaro. We went to four different businesses where I was given a popular taco eaten in Mexico. While I was enjoying the tacos she would tell me about the business, the ingredients used and how the taco is cooked. It was great tour personalized to me.

We had a great time touring the Centro on a Saturday night with David! He was so knowledgeable about the history of Queretaro and Mexico and provided us with just the right amount of information to appreciate our surroundings. He also answered all our questions and was very accommodating when we wanted to stop to listen to some live music that we passed (a huge music festival was happening the night of our tour, which made it extra fun). And the vegetarian street food from different regions was terrific! I especially liked the quesadillas and the gorditas. The Centro is beautiful at night, and the view of the aqueduct was a nice surprise. TIP: wear comfortable shoes!!!
Troy_C, Nov 2023
This was a wonderful experience! As we walked through town we got to sample a wide range of foods and I really appreciate that they were able to provide vegetarian options without making me feel like I was missing out - it felt very authentic. Great food while getting a history tour of the city of Querétaro - what could be better!
