5Food Walking Tour off the beaten path
We had a great day with Ronnie. He took us to places we would not have seen and food stops where we would not have eaten as they were not typical. From cemitas to mole to blue corn quesadillas, everything was fantastic. We shared the food as otherwise it would have been too much. We met a local artist and bought a painting. Highly recommend the tour.
5Walking food tour
Our tour guy was Ron. He was very knowledgeable and accommodating. All the food was really good. We really enjoyed this walking tour.
5A must do in Puebla!
This is one of the best food tours we have ever done! Ronnie is the best guide and gave amazing recommendations! The food was delicious and Puebla is just so beautiful. A must do in Puebla!
5Eat Like a Poblano!
If you come to Puebla this is a must. You’ll see a side of the city (literally) you might not visit otherwise. You’ll also have the best food curated by a guy who really knows where and how the locals eat. Our first stop, for tamales, blew us away, and we couldn’t imagine how it could get any better, but one excellent dish followed another. There’s no way we would’ve ever found these places on our own. But now we know where to eat and drink for the rest of our time here. Plus we learned a lot about culture and history and architecture. Thanks, Ronnie!
5Puebla food tour
So glad we decided to start our trip to Puebla with a food tour and so thankful we got Ronnie as our guide! He was friendly and warm from the start and full of local knowledge. He not only introduced us to the delicious food of the area but also explained the rich history of the city - two tours in one! We used his suggestions and insight throughout the trip which made the whole experience so much easier and enjoyable.
5Culture, history AND amazing food
We thoroughly enjoyed the Culinary tour led by the very knowledgeable Don Lionel, who was a historian as well as a culinary guide! We ate delicious foods, and saw many sights as well. We were treated to fascinating conversation about culture and history.

About Puebla
Puebla, in the central highlands of Mexico, is a colonial city of tiled façades and baroque churches beneath snow-capped volcanoes.
Puebla's historic centre, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is laid out on a grid around the zócalo, with a cathedral whose towers are among the tallest in Mexico, arcaded buildings and façades covered in glazed Talavera tiles. The Rosary Chapel in the Santo Domingo church is covered in gilded plaster, and the Palafoxiana Library, founded in 1646, is among the oldest in the Americas, with shelves of antique books.
