What you'll do

You’ll immerse yourself in Mexico City’s food culture with one of our Mexican hosts, and by immersing we mean you’re going to eat a lot of incredible street food (a practical approach is best, we always find). Street food is king here, so you’ll explore a neighborhood of the city and eat at various street food stalls and taquerías for a taste of the real deal.

With dozens of varieties of tortas, pozole, mole, sopes and esquites to try, and that’s before you’ve even got us started on the dizzying world of tacos with their various toppings, salsas, and garnishes. You’ll be glad someone’s here to show you the ropes.

Feast your way through the streets and try the dishes which keep the city going at the places you know are authentic - it’s not hard to see, or taste, why CDMX has one of the best street food scenes in the world. And we suppose there’s always room for dessert. Fresh mango with chili, la concha sweet bread, or churros, anyone?

    The Barbacoa lunch stop and the entire trip was fantastic! Our guide Roberto was really great and entertaining. I would highly recommend this experience and this guide. We can’t wait to come back soon to see more of Mexico City!

    King Roberto What a trip! My guide, Roberto, was so friendly and spoke great English. He was able to find me at the airport and picked me up early too. We had so much fun walking around all the markets. He shared the cities history and current events as well. The restaurants we went to served us delicious food too! Fondo Margarita was Anthony Bourdain’s favorite breakfast joint after a fun night of partying. I truly had a great experience. Thank you.

    Great time with Roberto. Roberto was amazing! He was so kind and caring throughout the entire day. He worked hard in advance to figure out exactly what we wanted to see and did a great job showing it all to us. The pace was perfect, we really had no problems at all. I would highly recommend Roberto to anyone considering Mexico City.
