Hey Taco Warriors!!!
Welcome to the Taco Attack! Get ready for an epic taco adventure through downtown Cancun's vibrant streets. We’ll hunt down the best tacos, snacks, tequila, and drinks while exploring Cancun’s rich history, from its humble beginnings to its bustling present. We'll visit iconic spots like the Municipal Palace, Parque de las Palapas, and our favorite taco joints, handpicked for their deep roots in Cancun’s story.
Ever tried esquites or elote (corn) in a cup? You're in for a treat! While not a traditional taco, it's made with corn, a staple of Mexican cuisine. You’ll also savor shrimp-stuffed chile relleno tacos—spicy or not, you decide! If you prefer, we have options like classic fish tacos, Yucatecan panuchos, Mexican-style beef brisket tacos, chorizo tacos, and even crispy tripe tacos. And, of course, the famous taco al pastor. Carnivores and vegetarians alike will find something to love, with a variety of salsas on the side.
Fancy a tequila tasting? It’s on us! Enjoy traditional aguas frescas and a cold beer, and finish the adventure with a sweet treat—Mexican churros or a Yucatan specialty, a marquesita filled with fresh fruit and Nutella.
Join us for a fun, flavorful, and unforgettable taco adventure in Cancun!
