This food tour is a great way to get your beaeings in Old Havana, and learn plenty about everyday life for Cubans along the way. Nelson did a great job of bringing little details to life, and his warm, easygoing manner blurred the lines between guide and host to make this tour even more rewarding. The amount of food involved is modest - this is more like snacking than a replacement for lunch. You will be brought to easily overlooked places among the tourist traps. This is reflected in the prices: the espresso was 10 cents.

What a great food tour! Shelman was the perfect guide. Because it was just me on the tour, it turned into a much more intimate one-on-one tour where not only did I learn (and try) so much food, but I was able to learn alot about Cuba's history, politics, and life. Highly recommend this tour!

We decided to try the street food tour during our time in Havana and it did not disappoint. Our local guide Shelman was very friendly and gave us a lot of insight into the local cuisine and history about Havana and Cuba in general. We visited a couple of spots for breakfast, snacks, ice cream, coffee and also stopped on the streets to try some random local things. All in all it was a great experience thanks to Shelman and the group that we had on the day.

I was the only one on the tour so it was me and Shelman eating several meals and talking over two hours. He was also my guide for the revolution tour the night before, so we had already met and discussed Cuban history. This was like part II. We ate strawberry ice cream (as breakfast!!!), cheese sandwich and juice at a cafe in a lovely garden and then hot chocolate at the chocolate museum. Meals definitely modified for my preferences. All tasty and cheap. Bottom line, definitely recommend this tour as a way to explore Havana and try meals and cafes you might not notice on your own.

When it comes to food, people from Havana don’t joke around. That’s why the Free Havana Food Tour is the perfect way to dive into the heart and soul Cuban culture. For example, if you go to a restaurant, you’ll be served a dish so big that you won’t be able to finish it. But in the midst of a busy day, who has time to sit down at a restaurant? This is the reason why Havana has developed an extremely diverse and lively street food scene. Join this amazing tour with a charming local guide and discover the Cuban capital’s tastiest side!

The secret to Cuban street food’s undeniable deliciousness is its natural ingredients. None of the dishes you will eat on our tour are processed, they come directly from the earth. Savor the cheapest and yummiest lobster in the world! Enjoy some incredible ice cream, and a slice of Cuban pizza! Introduced by Italians yet so different from any other pizza you’ve ever tried. Eat the best ‘ropa vieja’ in town–this dish, which literally means “old clothes”, consists of shredded beef with onions and peppers–much tastier than you’d imagine from its name!

On the Free Food Tour of Havana, you’ll be seduced by the simple and diverse nature of Cuban food, and you will be amazed at how fresh tropical ingredients are assembled in colorful and clever ways, thus providing a great gastronomic experience at an extremely affordable price! To get the best experience from this incredibly authentic tour and take amazing pictures of unusual food, we recommend that you book your seat today. Also, on the day of the tour, we suggest saving your appetite, so don’t eat breakfast beforehand!
