My friend and I were the only people on the tour as others canceled last minute. Rupita took us on the tour anyway. She was extremely knowledgeable (not just about street food, but everything about Oaxaca, from history, culture to politics or economy). I found it very interesting and easy to talk to her. She shared her life stories with us so it felt almost like a friend was showing us around. We tried many food places, with a great variety, and our last stop was super nice restaurant (we chose one of the two options). We would’ve continued to desserts had we have any room left in our stomaches lol All in all, I highly recommend Rupita’s tour. She’s professional, friendly, knowledgeable. Best tour guide you could find.
Friendly, knowledgeable and professional, Lupita toured us through the 20 de Noviembre market, and explained uses for various Mexican chilies, as well as occasions for different Oaxacan moles, while we sipped on a glass of cool, refreshing, tejate, also known as “the drink of the Gods” For our dinner at the market, we shared a paradilla of grilled Mexican meats with salsa and tortillas. We also visited a chocolaterie, where we sampled some very bitter and grainy, to smooth and delicious Mexican chocolate. We continued on to a mescalerie, and tried various flavoured creamy mezcal shots. At the end of the tour, we walked back to where we began and enjoyed some sweet sorbet. Lupita clearly has a passion for the food of her culture, and this was a delicious taste of Oaxaca!
We had an amazing experience on this food tour! Our guide was very knowledgeable and adaptive to our interests. It was a great evening - highly recommend!
Absolutely faultless, loved it from start to finish, way exceeded my expectations. Can’t recommend this highly enough!!
Amazing tour, delivious food, very fun. Lupita was great guide and gave us great insights into the Mexican and Oaxacan culture!
