Overview

Most visitors to Oaxaca never experience the city’s nighttime food scene when neighbourhood grills fire up, late-night vendors appear, and regional specialities take centre stage. This tour dives straight into the dishes locals actually eat after dark, far from restaurant dining rooms and tourist-focused menus.

With 14+ tastings across 7–8 authentic stops, you’ll sample everything from lechón tacos and oversized tlayudas to mole-filled tamales, tetelas, garnachas, and mezcal-soaked sweets. These are real neighbourhood spots, beloved by locals and largely unknown to travellers. It’s a flavour-packed, after-hours look at Oaxaca’s culinary identity, and the most authentic way to experience the city at night.

Our Oaxaca food tour offers guests a culinary experience around the city's medina. It's a carefully curated food adventure, led by our team of Oaxaca tastemakers. Before we get started, our tour reflects the local cuisine, and the limitations of street food vendors and local eateries mean we cannot cater for every dietary restriction. Here's an honest appraisal for the tour, so no-one is disappointed: ✘ Unsuitable for vegetarian, vegan, pescatarian and no pork diets as the number of tastings would be very limited. ✔ Gluten intolerance, lactose intolerance, mild nut allergies and no seafood diets are possible, though some tastings do not have alternatives available If you are feeling adventurous for a foodie journey, read on!

This evening food tour explores Oaxaca after dark, when the city’s street food scene is at its liveliest. As grills fire up and market stalls fill the air with smoke and aroma, you’ll dive into the heart of local food culture. With 14+ tastings included, this experience offers a crash course to Oaxaca’s flavours. The tour begins with classic street foods such as cheesy campechano tacos, tangy piedrazo served with quesillo, and earthy tetelas filled with huitlacoche. As the walk continues, you’ll sample bolder dishes including crisp garnachas, rich tamales de mole, tender tacos de cabeza, and slow-cooked lechón served in both tacos and tortas. Later tastings include Oaxaca’s iconic tlayuda topped with tasajo, smoky grilled tortillas with meat. The experience also features warming champurrado, a guided mezcal tasting, and finishes with classic Mexican flan. This guided evening walk offers an authentic way to experience Oaxaca’s food scene though the eyes of a local.
