Who we are
Born here. Raised here. Still hungry.
Belize Food Tours grew from a family connection to San Pedro, food and hospitality that goes back generations.
Dora & Felipe
A brother and sister team with San Pedro roots.
Dora and Felipe grew up on San Pedro as descendants of one of the island's pioneer families.
Their grandparents operated a popular beachfront seafood restaurant for decades. Growing up around home-cooked meals, visitors, island characters and a changing San Pedro made food and hospitality feel less like an industry and more like family language.
Belize Food Tours was created to share that San Pedro with visitors: not only what to eat, but who makes it, why it matters and how the island's many cultures show up on the plate.
Our team is Belizean born, raised and proud to share home with you.
Meet some of the guides
The people who make the walk come alive.
Great food matters. A guide who can make the island feel personal is what turns a tasting into a memory.

Our philosophy
Support small kitchens. Tell the stories. Feed people well.
We choose stops for flavor, local connection and the people behind them. Some are tiny. Some are casual. None need a white tablecloth to earn a place on the tour.
