The tour begins in a neighborhood full of restaurants that experience the tradition and typical flavor of Mexico. We will tell the history of gastronomy from pre-Hispanic times to modern times. In addition, the ingredients and the way of cooking the dishes.
The first restaurant mixes the seasoning of the south with the center of the country, you can try the tamales or quesadillas with typical chocolate drinks.
The second site is the most traditional food in the city, here you will taste the most consumed proteins and a variety of sauces.
The third place is seafood prepared in the North style, the freshness of the seafood marinated in different sauces and pibiles. Each place has vegan options and the level of spiciness is suitable for those who are not used to it.

Leo and Alexia were wonderful guides for our taco tour. They included just the right amount of cultural and historical context, and I appreciated how well they accommodated all kinds of dietary restrictions. Definitely recommend!

Interesting tour but needs to tell more stories and make a link with gastronomic tradition. The host strikes me as someone who likes making friends more than being a guide.

Elaine was a great tour guide, full of interesting information, history and knowledge on where to get the best tacos. Even though we could have walked around ourselves, we appreciated the tour as she explained to us the difference between the meats and led us to try different foods we wouldn’t have known about. We would definitely recommend Elaine and the Kactus taco tour!

Very good guide, Leonardo, he tried very hard to ensure that we had the tour in English and Spanish since the Spanish guide could not come. Very attentive to everyone.

We were looking for a fun way to spend some time in Mexico City on our whole day layover-what better way than to have a taco tour!!!!!! We were a family of 6 (including 2 kids and grandparents).
Our guide, Elaine, was super sweet, friendly, and shared lots about Mexican culture, especially food!! We tried 3 different taco stands-Elaine explained all the choices and gave her recommendations. The taco stands were well chosen, offering different choices and flavors. Love that we were eating like the locals!!
Highly recommend this tour!

I turned up for this tour and I was 5 minutes late and no one was there when I arrived and I tried to contact the company but they hadn’t been online on WhatsApp for 6 weeks and I couldn’t get in contact. It was a waste of time me traveling to the meet up location. Avoid this company

We did the free taco tour with Ricardo. We had just arrived into Mexico City a few hours before embarking on the tour and he made us feel so welcome straight away. Not only did we have the most amazing tacos but he also gave us a tonne of information about the city and the history. We would 100% recommend this tour, hopefully you will be as lucky as us to get Ricardo as a guide!
