Mexico · SHOPPING TOURS IN CANCUN
Good shopping tours in Cancun fill up weeks ahead and the great ones go first. Below: the 5 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
Taste Cancun beyond the resorts with four taco stops, Mexican beer, churros, downtown transport, and a lively night-market finish.
“Our experience guide, Nav, was so great! The tacos were absolutely delicious! Definitely had the best taco I've ever tasted on this tour!”
Taste carnitas, barbacoa, Yucatecan dishes, and frozen treats while exploring Cancun markets, murals, and local neighborhoods.
“This activity was great. The food was amazing at every stop. My favorite was the first one, the vibes was great and really gave an insight to Mexican culture. At the first taco spot there was a man playing a guitar, it was beautiful. Would def do this again. I recommend this to anyone visiting Mexico. Our tour guide was great as well. Gave us stories about Mexican culture. Really enjoyed ourselves.”
Review of Cancun’s 5-hour city tour with El Meco ruins, tequila tasting, shopping, drinks, and Playa Delfines views.
“The Mayan ruins stop was good and interesting. Beware of mosquitoes. At the first shopping stop beware. As in most Mexican cities, the salesmen are aggressive, annoying and in your face. I hated it! I am more out to buy at a store where the salesman does not follow me around and is pushy. The second stop for souvenirs with much better and I did buy something there. Songs from cityside since an interesting murals. Getting stuck in slow moving traffic going back to our resort I was not fun. 4 hour tour turned into six.”
Shop Mercado 23 with a chef, then make guacamole, sopes, enchiladas, tortillas, and margaritas in a small Cancun class.
“Great experience with Diego, Angel & Sasha! Very knowledgeable & informative during both the market tour & cooking class. The food we made was delicious & learned some great techniques. Great personalities! Highly recommend!”
Eat tacos, tamales, cochinita pibil, and sweets on a five-hour Cancún tour with local markets, street art, drinks, and hotel transport.
“Both our guide Adrian as well as our driver Angel did an incredible job with the tour. Each spot we went to felt different, and both the food and drink options were excellent. One thing I underestimated though is just how much food there is. So make sure you skip breakfast when taking this tour :)”
Pick a coast, a ruin or a kitchen.
