You haven’t really been somewhere until you’ve sampled the food – and a lot of it. Since the dawn of time, the table has been a place of cultural exchange, where we come to share and delight in life’s many flavors. The difficult thing about finding authentic dining options in today’s world is that so many are overshadowed by glitz and glamour. That’s where the guides at Vallarta Food Tours come in, offering a carefully planned selection of tasty treks designed to immerse curious foodies in a world of Vallarta-Nayarit Mexican food they might not otherwise find.
“Become a Local in 3 Hours”
This is the motto at the heart of the famed tour group. They want each guest to walk away feeling like a local, with a nose for traditional dishes and a passionate understanding as to why UNESCO deemed Mexican cuisine an “Intangible Cultural Heritage” of the world. Along the way, you’ll feast on inside knowledge of PV’s iconic sights, giving you the confidence to explore the city’s culinary secrets on your own.
“Local Food. Local Places. Local People.”
