100% recommend as a solo traveller

I had a very good time - Abby was fun and the small group setting was perfect! It was very good to get to know Playa del Carmen off the tourist tracks. It was actually my first day in Mexiko and now I know which food to order in the next weeks ☺️

Response from the operator: Hola! Thank you for your review. The best way to take this tours is at the beginning of your trip, I’m glad you made it like that and enjoyed your experience. Best wishes :)

Variety of a more casual gourmet experience

The tour was casual gourmet food and restaurants. The variety of foods from the different regions of Mexico was delicious and interesting to learn. Our guide, Abbey, was knowledgeable and grateful to share her culture with others.

Response from the operator: Hola Heather! Thank you for your review. I’m glad you enjoyed your gourmet tour with Abbey. Best wishes :)

Authentic Flavours of Mexico

We had a great Food Tour with the wonderful local guide Enrique! We tasted the true Mexican kitchen and we saw a lot of unseen places. Authentic flavours combined with a great historic overview of Mexico. We would recommend this tour to any food loving family who wants to get to know the real Mexico!

Response from the operator: Hola! Thank you for your review and recommendation. I’m glad you had a good experience with Enrique on the tour. Best wishes :)

Food Tour

Juan was awesome. Very much into his Mexican heritage and passion for his work. like a tour guide for local authentic Mexican food. Would recommend for a 2-3 hour walk around town and tasting 4-5 different places.

Response from the operator: Hola Tom! Thank you for your review. I’m glad you found Juan’s tour very enjoyable. Best wishes :)

Wonderful evening on the Gourmet Trail in Playa del Carmen

We had a delicious long lasting evening on our Gourmet tour with our guide Coco who knew many interesting things about Mexican history and food culture. Although we spent a day full of activity and nearly without food we couldn't manage to try all samples. It was much too much as all visited restaurants wanted to show their best (and did so). Thanks for a wonderful evening Coco!

Response from the operator: Hola Manuela! Thank you for your review and for sharing this evening with me. I’m glad you enjoyed it! Big hugs :)

Tequila & Mezcal Gourmet Experience in Playa del Carmen: questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Playa del Carmen.

How much does Tequila & Mezcal Gourmet Experience in Playa del Carmen cost?

+

Prices start at $3840 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Playa del Carmen usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

How long does Tequila & Mezcal Gourmet Experience in Playa del Carmen take?

+

Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Playa del Carmen is not rushed.

Is Tequila & Mezcal Gourmet Experience in Playa del Carmen worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Playa del Carmen, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule Tequila & Mezcal Gourmet Experience in Playa del Carmen?

+

Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

Is Tequila & Mezcal Gourmet Experience in Playa del Carmen suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 12. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 4-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book Tequila & Mezcal Gourmet Experience in Playa del Carmen?

+

Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Playa del Carmen can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

What should I bring or wear?

+

Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Playa del Carmen and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Tequila & Mezcal Gourmet Experience in Playa del Carmen start and how do I get there?

+

The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Playa del Carmen within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

What are the best things to do in Playa del Carmen?

+

On Outty we rank every Playa del Carmen experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include VIP Chichen Itza Private Tour, VIP Tulum Private Tour, Chichen Itza Private Tour VIP. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

When is the best time to visit Playa del Carmen?

+

Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

How many days do you need in Playa del Carmen?

+

Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

+

Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
