Miss this one
Richard K, Mar 2025
We had done a historic walking tour of the day before. Our guide on this food tour made no references to many of the sites. For example he did give a tip to the organ grinder but not let us know why the organ grinders were there. We did let the operator know beforehand that we did not eat meat. The first stop we had potato and bean tacos. The second stop was only meat tacos and we were not offered any substitutes. However we spoke to the waiter and he showed us a number of substitute meals that were suitable for vegetarians. Our tour guide said they were not tacos and did not offer them to us. He took the meals that we did not eat as take out. Our third stop was an exotic meat and insect place in the market. After all of that we were offered cheese This is an overpriced tour is not value for money. And we did not really learn anything from our guide.
Response from Host, Mar 2025
Dear Richard, A large part of the experience of this tour specifically is eating exotic dishes and meat. We definitely could have offered you only vegetarian options, for which we apologize, but it's part of the cuisine of the place you chose to visit. We are sorry that it was not to your liking, we will try to improve it. Kind regards, AMIGO TOURS.
Enjoyed Mexico City
