About this trip
TACO ATTACK - Taco Tour Cancun Mexico
Hey Taco Warriors! Get ready for the ultimate Taco Attack adventure through the vibrant streets of downtown Cancun! Join us as we hunt down the best tacos, snacks, tequila, and drinks while diving into Cancun's rich history, from its humble beginnings to its bustling present. We'll explore the heart of the city, the Municipal Palace, the famous Parque de las Palapas, and, of course, our all-time favorite taco joints. We've handpicked these spots because they've been part of Cancun's journey and growth, making them extra special.
Ever tried esquites or elote in a cup? If not, you're in for a treat! While it's not a traditional taco, it features the key ingredient—corn, a staple of Mexican cuisine since ancient times. We'll take you to taquerias where you can savor a mouthwatering shrimp-stuffed chile relleno taco. Is it spicy? You'll have to find out! But don't worry, we have plenty of options if you want to play it safe, like a delicious fish taco cooked in the classic street market style.
Since we're in the Yucatan Peninsula, you can't miss out on the local flavors with a delicious Panucho, the Yucatecan taco. How about trying beef brisket cooked Mexican-style in a taco? Or perhaps a chorizo taco, and if you're feeling adventurous, a crispy tripe taco? It's all up to you! And, of course, we can't forget the famous taco al pastor and more. Carnivores will be in heaven, but vegetarians, we've got you covered with fantastic veggie options too. Don't worry about the spiciness; you'll find a variety of salsas on the side to choose from.
Fancy a tequila tasting? It's on us! Plus, you'll get to enjoy traditional Mexican aguas frescas and a cold beer to wash down all that delicious food. And to top off this incredible adventure, we'll end with a sweet treat—Mexican churros or a marquesita, a Yucatan specialty that's like a sweet taco filled with fresh fruit and Nutella.
Come join us for a fun, flavorful, and unforgettable taco adventure in Cancun!
