Culinary Secrets of the Centro Histórico, with Culinary Backstreets
9
On this food tour in Mexico City, we’ll be exploring the district’s deep tracks – with an emphasis on the out-of-the-way food spots. We’ll start the day off by visiting two neighborhood breakfast institutions. As we work our way through the bustling Centro’s cobblestoned streets, we’ll also stop by several beloved food stands, from one serving the area’s best carnitas to another that sells escamocho, a tropical fruit cocktail like no other. We’ll duck into a side alley for homey enchiladas at a workers’ lunch spot and explore the edible offerings at a 1930s-era covered market that is also home to a stunning display of public art. There will be a stop for a bite and a drink with the regulars at a neighborhood cantina that remains unchanged from when it first opened 100 years ago and then, to end the day, a sit down at another classic cantina for a meal of botanas, hearty home-style dishes that redefine upwards the concept of “bar snacks.”

Explore the Real MxCity all-inclusive
9
⚠︎We're the new kids in town so check our unbeatable prices⚠︎
We'll show 4 different faces of the city, walking, eating and drinking as much as we can!
We start in Guerrero Neighborhood, a non-tourist area but a really traditional barrio, perfect to show you the real city that most visitors never see. After a traditional breakfast, we’ll visit the biggest local market where my mom buys the groceries for my enchiladas.
Then, we’ll take the metro (it's safe!) to visit the Revolution Monument and talk about the bloodiest Mexican civil war. Then we’ll walk through hidden gems (a cemetery and psychiatric hospital), just to take a break to drink pulque (Aztecs beverage).
The third part is a walk through Central Alameda + Fine Arts Palace and the iconic Latino Tower, talking about art, history, and love failures.
Last but not least: Downtown Highlights. Most iconic buildings + tacos + beer in a secret bar.
Can any other tour beat that offer? I would say not in this life.
