Puebla Gastronomic Tour

This visit to Puebla focuses on the main sites of its historic center, recognized as a World Heritage Site, while also highlighting the local flavors that form part of its culinary identity. The experience begins at the Cathedral of Puebla, formally called the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception. From there, the walk continues to the Zócalo, the central square that has long been a gathering place, and the scale model of Puebla that provides an overview of the city. The route then follows the traditional 5 de Mayo street, leading to the Rosary Chapel, often regarded as an exceptional example of baroque architecture. Its detailed ornamentation has made it one of the most admired religious spaces in Mexico. The tour continues along Calle de los Dulces, a street lined with shops dedicated to the city’s traditional sweets. Here you will enjoy tastings of local specialties, including Santa Clara pancakes and the well-known camotes, a candy made from sweet potatoes. The tasting also includes regional liqueurs, providing an introduction to flavors that are deeply tied to Puebla’s traditions. All tastings are included and together provide enough variety to be considered a complete meal.
