What happens

1

Meet your guide

Transport from the resort to Central Park in downtown San Pedro. Meet your guide, a born-and-raised islander who grew up eating at these kitchens. Quick introduction to the four culinary cultures of Belize and the route ahead. Come hungry.

2

Walk, eat, repeat

Six stops over 2.5 to 3 hours through the back streets of San Pedro. Family-run kitchens serving Maya tacos, Mestizo salbutes, Creole rice and beans, fresh seafood ceviche, fry jacks, and dishes you will not find on any resort menu. At each stop, your guide introduces the cook, explains the dish, and shares the cultural history behind what you are eating. Rum tastings, sugarcane juice, and cashew wine along the way.

3

Chocolate and return

The tour ends with Belizean chocolate, made from local cacao the Maya called the food of the gods. Transport back to the resort by approximately 2:00 PM. You will have a list of spots to come back to on your own.

Common questions

Yes. Ten tastings across six stops is a full lunch. Most guests skip their next meal. Come hungry and pace yourself. Your guide manages the portions at each stop so you make it to the end.

Vegetarian and gluten-free yes, with advance notice at booking. Vegan options are limited on the lunch tour as most stops cater to locals. The dinner tour is more vegan-friendly. Specify your requirements when you book so the guide can make arrangements in advance.

Yes. The dinner tour visits different stops with a different menu and a different atmosphere. One rum tasting and one restaurant are repeated, but with entirely different dishes. We recommend doing the lunch and dinner tours on separate days.

The pool before breakfast. The spa after the reef. The terrace when the stars come out.
