Gerry is fantastic! He’s fun, friendly and knowledgeable. We went on this tour as a cruise excursion (booked on our own) in 2019 and loved it so much we did the same tour, again, 3 years later. And since we had been before, Gerry customized it for us and brought us to a couple new places!

Greet your gastronomic guide in downtown Cozumel to commence your epicurean adventure. Relax during the comfortable minivan journey to a selection of authentic eateries and food stalls located off-the-beaten-track. Sample a classic Mexican empanada then savor the fresh flavor of a succulent shrimp filled taco, the fish in which was recently caught from the crystal clear water of Cozumel’s sea. Sip a refreshing cerveza as your guide explains how a combination of Caribbean and Yucatan culture influence Cozumel’s colorful cuisine. 

Enjoy the vibrant atmosphere of an open-air market as you become acquainted with exotic spices, unfamiliar fruits, and mouthwatering meat.

Awaken your senses to the rich aromas of freshly baked bread and sweet pastries, and sip refreshing aqua fresca (a non-alcoholic drink of water and sweet fruit syrup) before returning to your minivan. Digest the knowledge gained on your cultural tour of Cozumel’s cuisine during the return journey to downtown Cozumel.

Get off the beaten path.

Most memorable was the restaurant where we had the whole fish. Gerri was great leading us through the tour, informative and was always upbeat. Just a thought to better the tour maybe to have like a sample platter of a few of the fruits/vegetables in the market for tour to try.

If you're looking for a tour which takes you where locals go and NOT where tourists go, look no further. Gerry was the perfect guide. He was friendly, accommodating, and fun to hang out with. He introduced to some foods we would've never tried on our own. This is exactly what we wanted.
