WHY BOOK THIS TOUR?

or why this is our best seller activity

GET A WHOLE PICTURE OF THE CITY

There´s no more complete tour, you´ll visit from coffee shops to bakeries, street food, quiet beautiful markets, crazy busy big markets and up and coming neighborhoods. From beautiful streets to crazy loud market hallways, from coffee to insects, this will give you a comprehensive understanding of Mexico City´s food scene.

THE BEST FOR SHORT TRIPS

If you´ll be here for a short period of time, this tour is the best, you´ll cover a lot of ground in only 4.5 hours, 4 different neighborhoods, the subway, the history and the culture behind the food, and more than 25 samplings. I know that sounds like a lot but is perfectly well-paced, with moments of walking, sitting, exploring and learning.

TRAVEL CONSCIOUSLY

We only employ women,  pay great money to our vendors and amazing salaries to our food hunters,  promote gender equality with financial education for women, quality education for kids with English lessons every week, our tours feed homeless people and the small groups don’t disrupt local life. Sustainability goes farther than just paying good wages and fair prices to the vendors.

KNOW THE MAKERS

You´ll get to learn the stories behind all our vendors, their dreams, motivations, and cool facts, you can also learn how to make some food, clean cactus pads, interact with our 80IQ Kids and have a deeper understanding of our culture through our people.
