Food is an integral part of every culture and Mexico is no exception. Mexican markets are unique and a delight for all the senses! Learn about local gastronomy starting with a look at the ingredients, many of which can be traced back to prehispanic times. Modern Mexican gastronomy is a syncretic blending of local and European tastes, producing what is today considered one of the richest, most varied and most delicious cuisines of the world.
In fact, Mexican cuisine is now included on UNESCO’s list of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity! We’ll show you unusual fruits, vegetables, edible insects and talk about cooking techniques that you may not be familiar with!
This market tour focuses on ingredients to create an unforgettable sensory experience for you! We are NOT a dime-a-dozen cookie-cutter type tourist company, nor are we a cooking school. Unlike the many tasting tours out there that drag you from one fixed stop to another, we customize your experience, talking about the history of native ingredients, utensils and techniques.
This tour takes approximately 3 hours.
