Tacos Tequila y Más: Local Food & History in Queretaro's Centro
Overview
Come hungry and discover Querétaro through its food, history, and people on this three-hour adventure through the city's gorgeous UNESCO World Heritage historic center.
We'll take you beyond the obvious tourist stops to locally loved places and flavors. You'll enjoy authentic Mexican food, regional specialties, traditional drinks, and a few surprises, plus tequila "the authentic way" in a traditional cantina.
But this isn't only about eating. David, your local guide who's called Querétaro home for 25+ years, brings the city to life through its history, architecture, plazas, churches, and monuments. You'll discover details you might otherwise miss and stories that helped shape Querétaro and Mexico.
You'll meet some of our beloved vendors, learn about the ingredients and traditions behind each dish, and discover why we return again and again.
Come for the food, but leave knowing Querétaro a little better. We can't wait to share the city we locals love with you.
