EVERY DAY
Crowded bus rideStreet food onlyNot Gluten FreeNOT DRINKING TOURKids pay full price
Vegetarian options available
This is our best seller itinerary and also my favorite, you´ll learn everything you need to know about Mexico City, from subway navigation to street food, little cafes, bakeries and of course, the markets. Walk around the flowers, taste the best food, absorb the overwhelming chaos of my city, the food, the smells, and the people.
If you found us through The New York Times “36 hours in Mexico City” but are not comfortable with a real-life adventure or moments of discomfort we kindly advise you not to book this experience. Hospitality is one of our core values we will always go above and beyond to make this tour special and memorable. However there’s only so much we can do to soften the true nature of the places we visit. Chaos is part of the experience, and embracing it is essential.
If you decide to come with us you´ll need to awaken your explorer within, there will be chaos, there will be crowds, you´ll ride the subway and climb lots of subway stairs, you´ll walk a lot and the weather will be hot, but if you accept the challenge of stepping out of your comfort zone, you´ll get to see a side of the city rarely experienced by convencional tourists.
Bring an open mind and heart, a go with the flow attitude, comfortable shoes and an empty stomach and you are set to have a great tour.

What are we going to do?
No real local night is complete without a pulquería visit, the government has been trying to banned them for the last 100 years, but they keep going strong preserving the prehispánico tradition.

A LITTLE ADVICE BEFORE YOUR TOUR
things to consider before booking to have a great time with us
A LITTLE ADVICE BEFORE YOUR TOUR
You´ll be at markets, crowded streets and public transportation. It is what it is, if you don’t feel comfortable with this, even if you saw us in the New York Times, please don’t come. You won’t have a good time and Hollidays are for having fun, not to struggle.
- Don´t have breakfast under ANY circumstances. Your life depends on it! You will have breakfast and lunch during the tour.
- We work in streets and markets, severe allergies can’t be accommodated because we cat avoid cross contamination and air born particles. Be mindful with this please.
- This tour is suitable for vegetarians but meat and veggies will be cooked on the same surfaces.
- The stairs are subway stairs, sometimes the escalators are working but they might not work the day you come. it’s completely out of our control. The max number of flights in a row is 2, they are usually spaced out.
- Consider that this tour rides the subway and it might be crowded and hot.
- The city is 7,300 feet high, this tour involves lots of walking and you might experience dizziness and shortness of breath, consider this before booking, this tour requires a medium fitness level.
- We don’t walk like crazy, pauses are made for eating and we have many sitting opportunities.
- Avoid bringing with you valuables such as jewelry and big cameras, we visit a non touristy and chaotic area where petty crime is common, don´t put yourself and the group in danger. Dangerous situations are easily avoidable by being discreet.
- Avoid wearing short skirts and revealing clothes if you don´t want to attract undesirable attention from men at the markets.
- Plan a nap after the tour, you will need it, TRUST ME ON THIS.
