Overview

This three-hour walking food tour in San Jose del Cabo introduces you to local Mexican dishes and the town’s market. The tour starts by tasting aguas frescas, traditional fruit-based drinks, to refresh you. Next, you’ll try enchiladas de mole made with chicken or beef and a mole sauce combining chilies, chocolate, and spices, topped with cheese, onions, and sesame seeds. Then the tour moves to birria, a slow-cooked stew with marinated meat and spices, served with onions, cilantro, and lime. After that, you visit a lively local market to see fresh vegetables, fruits, dried chilies, and watch tortillas being made by hand. The tour continues with sopes topped with refried beans, lettuce, cheese, and carnitas, followed by tacos filled with grilled steak, carnitas, or chorizo, garnished with onions, cilantro, and lime. The final stop is for paletas, Mexican ice pops in flavors like mango, strawberry, and coconut to finish the tour. The guide speaks English and Spanish, and all food, drinks, bottled water, and tips at restaurants are included. The group size is small to keep the experience personal.
