What´s cool about this safari?

1. You´ll eat A LOT, like, you pay for a tour and you´ll get breakfast and lunch. What a deal!
2. It’s a small group, Maximum 6. And we won’t use an umbrella to make you follow us around the city, that´s just embarrassing.
3. We visit several neighborhoods, (Condesa, Jamaica Market-the flower market, La Merced Market, Juárez -the new hipster area) that is awesome because if you only have one day in Mexico City, this safari will give you a good comprehension of the city.
4. This tour sponsors a program that teaches English to kids at the market, helps them with monthly mentorships and creates amazing opportunities for them. Learn more HERE 
5. Please note that during the weekends the kids from 80iq (Eat like a local´s social program) host the tour at La Merced, they where born and raised at the market and there is no better way to see it, if you book on Saturday or Sunday and want to bring some presents for them like candy and pictures from your city we would really appreciate, the number of kids vary from 1 to 5 and the age range is from 7 to 11 Years old.
6. In 4.5 hours you´ll eat at restaurants, street stalls and also markets, this tour is for overachievers and efficient travelers.
7. Don´t worry, I´m efficient but I hate running, you´ll have a great time at your own pace.
8. You´ll meet amazing locals, anyone can take you to the market, only with me you´ll actually get to know the market vendors, these people are my family, my friends and my reason to smile every day, you´ll love them as I do.

What´s cool about my company?

1. I´m a traveler too, I dedicate 2 months per year to travel and explore the world, I know how you feel, what you need, what are you expecting and how horrible tours can be, I´ve been in your shoes, and I know how to make your visit awesome.
2. All Eat Like a Local´s hosts are world travelers, multicultural local women, with no tourism background, why is this important? Because tourism industry usually sucks, Eat Like a Local´s girls are artists,s designers, food experts, ballet dancers, sociologists, youtube stars, with deep Mexican roots and amazing understanding of Mexico city´s food and history.
3. I believe in flexibility, all itineraries can be modified, feel free to ask for additional stops (don´t be shy, I´ve translated tarot readings, found mariachis at 2:00 am on a Sunday and bought new Snickers for a naive fashionista that did not follow my dress code advice)
4. I promote sustainable and responsible tourism, it’s so easy to travel now, we need to be better travelers, conscious travelers, I don´t want my city to become a giant tourist trap.
5. I believe in excellence and quality service, I have only 5 stars reviews, you and your needs are my priority. You can read my reviews HERE
