Great taco tour - Everything you would want in a taco tour! My partner and I ended up being the only ones on the tour, so it was personalized to us. Our guide, Jim, was knowledgeable and made the tour really fun and engaging along the way. We had five different stops and it was a great way to see parts of Mexico City, get a little bit of history, and try a few different tacos and other things during the tour.

Great good, even better guide. - I had this tour recommended to me and it did not disappoint! Great tour for first timers and even if you’ve been to CDMX. Avidan is super knowledgeable and passionate. He put something special together here - a mix of more general stops like a market and also places you couldn’t go without his personal connections, like a boutique tortilla shop. Pro tip: come hungry.

Great and delicious for any size group. - We went as a large group as part of a bachelorette. Was a bit nervous as one of the organizers and with so many of us! Avi and the tour was awesome!!! Still thinking about some of the items we tried.

Great foodie experience - Really enjoyed this tour. Lots of great foodie info. Besides eating great tacos, visited a tortilla maker who works with native heirloom corn. Also visited a mercado and got some great info on various peppers, moles and spices. Highly recommend.

A multi-generational taco tour - Our tour with Daniel was outstanding. We had five adults (including two grandparents) and two children, ages 12 and 14. The tour was very well organized with time to sit in some places, a bathroom break, and so much amazing food. Daniel explained how tacos are made and told us about different types of corn and cooking techniques. He also talked about the architecture in the neighborhoods where we walked. He was very kind to the kids and they responded enthusiastically to foods that were entirely new to them. In addition to stopping at various places serving food, he took us to the market and told us about different fruits and other things. We all thoroughly enjoyed our time with Daniel and recommend him highly.

A fantastic tour for a multigenerational group! - This was our fourth time doing a tour with Taco Mensch, but the first time doing a tour with our whole family - ranging from 12 to 76, and including a picky vegetarian. Daniel made the experience amazing for everyone - it was our first adventure in Mexico City and it really set the tone for an amazing trip. Daniel was flexible and fun and his laid back approach made the kids comfortable with trying some new foods. We also really loved the way he pointed out interesting architecture and told the stories of the neighborhoods. This is a must-do tour in Mexico City

Best tacos in Mexico City! - I booked this tour for my daughter (age 8) and I who were visiting Mexico City, and for two friends who both live in Mexico City. THIS WAS ABSOLUTELY A DELIGHT! Avidan's knowledge and passion for Tacos and Mexican food is infectious. The walking tour is just the right amount of walking, eating, sharing, exploring and learning and well worth the price. The tacos are DELICIOUS and very different from stop to stop. Beyond a food tour, you also get to connect with the other attendees from around the world, which is a bonus! I highly recommend this experience to anyone wanting to know where the best tacos are in Mexico City!
