Juan More Taco was an amazing tour! It started with Karina, who was such a wonderful and welcoming host. She shared the history of her family traditions and explained the process of making chocolate and mole, which was so interesting.Then David took us on an incredible taco tour to some of the best local spots, where we tried delicious tacos paired with unique and flavorful sauces. We also enjoyed an amazing dessert, and at the end, we got to taste several different tequilas!The whole experience was very interesting, unique, and deeply rooted in Mexican traditions. One piece of advice: come hungry, because they offer you A LOT of food! Definitely an experience I would recommend.
