Fantastic guide and tour - What a wonderful tour we had. Mariela is an excellent guide, full of stories and information. She made the tour extra special. We had a lively and entertaining evening. The empanadas were especially delicious. Loved to coffee too. The Cuban sandwiches and Mojitos, spot on. The cigar making tour was informative and I liked the no pressure to buy. Although it was a bit tough to sit through the presentation with customers in the back smoking. We stepped out for a breath of fresh air at this point. The pasties and ice cream we had were a sweet ending to our night. Highly recommend this tour, loads of fun.

Fantastic Tour, Come Hungry! - This tour was absolutely fantastic! Our guide (whose name I, unfortunately, can’t spell!) was Cuban-American, and having someone with that background and heritage made the experience so much richer. His personal connection to the story and the neighborhood brought Little Havana to life in such an authentic and meaningful way.
We enjoyed full portions at every stop, so take my advice come hungry! Do not make the mistake I did by eating a snack before the tour, because you wont have room for all the delicious dishes and drinks along the way.
Public parking was easy to access, affordable, and conveniently located to meetup spot (less than 3 minute walk). The amount of walking during the tour itself was very minimal since most of the restaurants and shops are close together. It even started pouring rain halfway through, but it didn’t affect the experience at all! At the time the rain started we were enjoying a Cuban sandwich and mojito under a covered patio. Many of the buildings have overhangs that made it easy to keep going. For those of us who came prepared (umbrellas and ponchos in hand), it was no problem. My only dietary restriction was no pork, so I ate beef chicken and vegetarian options as an alternate to any pork item. I was very pleased with how accommodating they were for all the different diet needs in the tour group.
Overall, a wonderful experience great food, great energy, and a wonderful guide. I’d absolutely recommend this tour and plan to do it again in the future, along with the South Beach food tour our guide mentioned!

A fun, interesting and tasty tour - I thoroughly enjoyed the tour of Little Havana. It focused on Calle Ocho, Eighth St., the cultural center of the area. Bianca, our tour guide, met our group at the Tower Theater on 8th St. She warmly greeted everyone and got to know each of us a bit before heading out. She was friendly, courteous, energetic, entertaining and very knowledgeable. Her knowledge of Cuba’s history and culture was instrumental in making this a very enjoyable experience. Our food stops ultimately resulted in a full meal including a pastry, empanada, Cuban sandwich, mojito, coffee and ice cream. I did not leave hungry. Our stop at Domino Park was very interesting. I had no idea of the cultural significance that dominoes played in the Cuban culture. We went to a shop and watched a cigar maker hand roll a cigar. All along the route, Bianca explained interesting facts about Cuba’s history and culture. I recommend this tour to anyone who would really like to learn about Cuba’s culture and history while enjoying some traditional food and drink.

Great food and guide and value for your money. - Amazing food tour. Bianca our guide was wonderful. She taught us a good amount, but made sure that we were well fed along the way and she had an incredible inviting personality. You get multiple full-size portions of food and drinks not sample sizes which makes it worth your money even more. Definitely something to book.

Bianca is a legend - Went on this tour by myself not sure what to expect since it was my first guided tour ever. But wauw, Bianca really took good care of everyone. She ping-ponged with the other tour guide from their company who held a tour simultaneously with us which helped lighten the mood and made everyone feel comfortable with one another. After a short introduction of everyone on the tour we headed off. Every single spot was a great experience. Cuban coffee, Cuban sandwich, Cuban mojito, cigar roller, cultural spots etc. Every single stop brought with it a great story. The short walks between the stops also gave everyone an opportunity to get to know each other a bit, which was great. Bianca also sparked conversation here and said that she would do her best to answer any questions we may have had. The tour ended at the museum where we got to see a bunch of lovely cars and had the opportunity to buy some lovely traditional Cuban clothing.
I highly recommend attending this tour. The value is great, the guides are great, and the people at the stops are great.

Fun and informative tour with great food! - Wow! We had an amazing tour with Bianca! We had a full day before we could check into our hotel (after coming back from a cruise) and wanted to explore Little Havana. We were blessed to find the perfect tour. Bianca was fun and engaging and has a great mind for history. She was able to share so much about Cuba and Little Havana and the food was delicious! I would highly recommend this tour and hopefully you’ll have the tour with Bianca…she’s amazing!
