Vallarta Eats Food Tours
Signature Taco and More Tour is perfect for people who want to go deeper into Mexican Culture and eat a wide variety of the everyday food the locals eat.
We recommend taking their tours at the beginning of your stay in Puerto Vallarta. That way, you’ll be able to return to your newly discovered favorite spots during the rest of your visit!
This is a walking tour where your Vallarta Eats Foodie Guide will give you the inside scoop on:
why Mexicans eat chicharron (fried pork skin), carnitas (pork), and birria (spicy Mexican stew) tacos for breakfast, the importance of the tortilla in the Mexican diet (while you visit a tortilla factory and taste tortillas fresh off the press), a variety of fresh fish and seafood from the ocean to your plate, fruit, candy, and more
Please remember this tour is for a maximum of six people, is offered six nights per week and as a result, sells out quickly. Don’t wait

When you’re opening a box of decadent Godiva or a pint of delicious vanilla ice cream, it’s easy to forget that your dessert has a history of almost 4,000 years. Cultivated by the Mayans and the Aztecs, the cacao bean and vanilla plant both have their origins in Mexico. Over the years they have seen many different forms: from drinks to bars, from extracts to synthetics. On this tour, you’ll get a chance to explore chocolate and vanilla treats you’ve never even conceived of… and some old favorites, too!
