"We had a fabulous food tour with Sonja today. We had plenty of options and variety offered to accommodate our tastes. Whilst we were a little cautious on the hot sauces due to recent illness we certainly tried new foods we have not had since being in Mexico. The cooling drinks, chocolate, tortas, costras and churros filled our tummies! Plenty of recommendations for our next visit also provided. Sonja was a great guide who was interesting, friendly, shaped the tour around our preferences and showed us some great shopping spots. We would definitely recommended her food tour!

10 tastings and an intro to PDC...
"The private and personal food tour with Sonja was the perfect kick off to our visit to PDC. She thoughtfully tailored the tastings with a little mix of everything local and all was delicious. We had the most wondeful dinner the next evening at one of her recommendations and had a quick meal two days later at one of the food stops. We hope to have Sonja as our guide again soon for other local cultural experiences."

Wonderful food tour with Sonja
"Our evening with Sonja was a vibrant and delicious exploration of Playa del Carmen's authentic food scene! She skillfully led us away from the predictable tourist fare, revealing hidden culinary treasures and trusted street vendors. The aromas and flavors were incredible, each bite a revelation of the freshest, most authentic Mexican food we've ever encountered. Sonja's personalized approach was truly exceptional; she listened to our preferences and curated a tour that felt uniquely ours. The convenience of her meeting us at our VRBO maximized our relaxation time, and the private tour was a fantastic investment in an intimate and unforgettable experience. We were so delightfully full by the end we sadly had to forgo the marquesita - a delicious regret! Even after the tour, Sonja continued to share her local knowledge, offering valuable tips for snorkeling with turtles in Akumal and other local secrets. For a truly immersive and personalized culinary journey in Playa del Carmen, Sonja is the only guide you need."

A Must Do!
"Sonja was fantastic! She really showed the PDC area well.
We had 7 of us, one of which was in a wheelchair.
She was so accommodating, kind and knowledgeable!
The food was delicious and there were items we would never have found of our own!
She has excellent response times.
Highly RECOMMEND!"

Fabulous Food with Sonja
"Highly recommend...Sonja was engaging, friendly and very communicative. She accomodated our schedule, preferences and ensured we tasted all Yucatex Mayan flavors as hoped! We'd hope to do other tours with Sonja if possible, she is excellent."
