I highly recommend the Taste of the Yucatan Cooking Class for anyone who wants to learn more about the various foods and dishes of the area. Our guide, Pury, was a sweetheart and took us around the market showing us various fruits and vegetables, the tortilla maker, and then off to the butchers to buy chicken for our lunch. The... More

My husband, 17 year old son and I arranged to take the biking trip with Adventures Mexico. Jennifer was our guide, and Luis actually came along too to shoot some videos. We were the only three on our tour. We met at the hotel, then walked about 15 minutes through town to find the collectivo bus, which was waiting for... More

My wife and I signed up for Adentures Mexico "Taste of Yucatan" cooking class and it turned out to be so much more than just the cooking. We met Jorge, a young chef, who took us to the local market to shop for ingredients. What an experience! Jorge showed us through the entire market (As the central market in Merida,... More

We took the biking tour in late January with Jennifer as our guide. We met her at the Hotel Caribe at 8am sharp and rode the local bus to Tixkokob, where we visited a local market and collected our bikes and helmets from Lupe. We then set off for the ruins at Ake and the Solis family henequen hacienda, stopping... More

My wife and I were seeking to learn more about local Mexican cuisine, and the Taste of Yucatan workshop was right on target. Luis guided us through the market, explaining key ingredients, answering questions, and allowing plenty of time for observation and photography. He was extremely patient, never hurrying and always stopping to answer any queries we had (and we... More

This was, quite possibly, the best experience we had while in Merida, Mexico - certainly the most unique, and so much fun! Luis met us at our hotel first thing in the morning, took us shopping in the huge city markets for the very freshest foods, then we accompanied him to his own home where he and his wife showed...

We took the biking tour with Luis and really enjoyed the day. It was just myself and my friend on the tour and we really valued the one on one attention. After being on many large tours in Mexico City and Playa Del Carmen it was really nice to enjoy what Merida had to offer in a more low key... More

I took the Cooking class offered by www.Adventures-Mexico.com. I was very impressed. We started on time which is not common in Mexico. It stared with a tour of the Market, where we got the groceries we needed for the actual cooking. We also sampled a few things that were picked out for us by our guide Jorge. We tried some... More

I would only advise booking the biking tour and the taste of yucatan tour with Adventure-Mexico. These two tours are managed by Luis (Adventure-Mexico) directly and are both great experiences. All of the other tours are done by other tour operators and will work out cheaper if you book directly with the operators, which can be easily done. Also, if... More
