What You’ll Do

Explore authentic Yucatán cuisine beyond the beaches on the coast of Riviera Maya.

This food tour reveals the true heart of Cancún through the flavors that locals grew up with, far from the resorts yet just a short drive from Playa del Carmen. Downtown streets, historic markets and lively plazas come together to showcase Yucatán cuisine shaped by Mayan heritage, coastal ingredients and generations of family cooking.

The journey begins near Mercado 23 with a torta de lechón and refreshing horchata de piña before moving on to sopa de lima, a fragrant regional soup balancing citrus and warmth. At Mercado 28, a panucho de cochinita pibil highlights centuries of culinary tradition followed by a surprise secret dish. The food tour concludes at Parque de las Palapas where quesadillas fritas and creamy fruit paletas are enjoyed amid music, families and evening energy, offering a final taste of everyday life on the Mexican Riviera.

Taste a comforting bowl of sopa de lima – Yucatán’s fragrant chicken-and-lime soup, delicately spiced and rooted in tradition.

Stop 4

At bustling Mercado 28, enjoy a panucho de cochinita pibil – a crisp tortilla stuffed with refried beans and topped with marinated pork and pickled onions.

Stop 5

Delight in a delicious Secret Dish – a surprise bite that bridges past and present, revealed only on the day of your tour.

Stop 6

Experience a street food favorite at Parque de las Palapas: quesadilla frita filled with cheese and carne asada, golden and crispy.
