1.Taco Adventure Evening Food Tour with Vallarta Food Tours

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 934 reviews · 3 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $55Our pick

Start at 5:30 pm in Zona Romántica for a three-and-a-half-hour walking food tour through Emiliano Zapata and 5 de Diciembre. Guides such as Joana, Maho, Manuel, Miel, and Fernanda lead you to family-run taco stands, seafood counters, chocolate, churros, and a final agave cocktail. Expect seven taco tastings, uneven sidewalks, and a full dinner.

“Maho was a very pleasant tour guide. The experience was informative, the diverse areas of town, the different types of agave, the family’s histories that owned the restaurants that we visited. The tacos sampled were delicious, and well presented. I think our favorite is still the tuna. Bring your walking shoes and appetite. My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed it.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 378 reviews · 1 hour 30 minutes (approx.)

Meet your Holbox guide, receive a long wetsuit, water shoes, mask, snorkel, and mosquito protection, then ride by buggy to a dark coastal or mangrove site. At about one meter deep, your movements make blue-green plankton glow. Guides Alex, Alan, and Javier also point out stars and explain the science. Moon and weather control the schedule.

“Went right after a hurricane, and our guide, Alex, made sure we were in a location where you could see the bioluminescent waters. The experience was amazing, and Alex explained everything behind the sparkling water. He also showed us some constellations! The pickup and drop off process was also seamless. Would highly recommend to anyone visiting Holbox!”
