Amazing Taco Experience with Alejandro! - Alejandro was our guide and he was the best! We had an awesome time trying three different types of tacos around the city. Alejandro was kind, accommodating, and very knowledgeable about the city. I would highly recommend this experience!

Fantastic tour of Mexico City's food scene - Roberto took us through his favorite restaurants for 3 hours. With his passion and love for Mexico City and Mexican cuisine, he also awakened our desire for Mexican food. We also learned a lot of interesting facts about the city and its people and received tips for further activities. Thank you Roberto for the great time! We hope to see each other again!

Very Highly Recommend! - This was a great way to see a lot of the city and try some amazing food that I would not have found on my own. Ingrid was a wonderful guide who gave me great advice on places to go and how to get around for the rest of my trip. Highly Recommend!

Good food, great history, amazing company - My wife and I have done a number of food tours in our past travels, but over the years we've not done many as my wife developed dietary restrictions to include gluten and dairy. Most food tours tends to be a fixed routine of locations and food items, hence the reason this tour caught our eye when on our trip to Mexico city. It started with a call with Marisol before we had even started our vacation, we scheduled a brief call and discussed all the food restrictions. The day of our tour we met Marisol and she did an amazing job giving us many options to choose from giving us the feeling that we could decide where we'd like to go next and once we got to a location she'd give great recommendations on what from the menu we should avoid and what would be worth trying. In between stops for food Marisol walked us through the city telling us about the recent and not so recent history of Mexico City, talked about the surrounding architecture and happily answered all of our questions. At the end of the night we felt like we had made a new friend and could not have asked for a better way to have spent our evening.

Excellent experience - Well worth doing this private guided foodie experience! We really enjoyed being able to customise our experience and our guide Ernesto was flexible, knowledgeable and passionate! We did this on our first night in Mexico city and it gave us so much confidence to go out and explore on our own. Gracias Ernesto!

Our guide Ingrid was amazing! - We absolutely had a great experience with Ingrid. She knows the area very well, was very friendly, and showed us different taco places. We were able to try different flavours that we never saw in the US - everything was very tasty. We didn’t just go to established restaurant, we also hit the local market - something we probably wouldn’t be able to do ourselves - the market is HUUUUUGE. We felt we were eating like a local - thanks to Ingrid!

A great night in Mexico City - Nico our great and enthusiastic guide who gave us lots of interesting info and listened and answered all our questions. We had a variety of delicious tacos in a the Navarte (taco) neighbourhood… finishing up with an enlightening Mescal tasting (plus bonus birthday cake for one of us!). A great night out!
