Great food. OK historical information
Anna

The guides were wonderful and well informed. The variety of food, quality, and choices of vendors was also excellent. Really, almost too much food, but who's to quarrel? I wish the historical stops along the way were more interesting, not sure why they made the choices they did, but it seems there are many more cultural destinations to highlight

Good food, but far too long
menzwj

Tour is a mix of sit down meals/drinks and stops by cultural spots. The food stops were fantastic- we visited places which you'd never know to go to without a tour. Cultural stops were more coincidental (i.e. stopping for the sake of stopping, instead of learning about something interesting) and didn't really relate to a food tour. Overall it was disappointingly slow - could've been done in half the time by hitting highlights and dropping the unnecessary culture stops (we left at the 5 hour mark).

I loved this tour. Rachel was knowledgeable and fun. I learned so much about the city and the food. We got an insider look at a market complete with exotic foods and some delicious tacos and mole. Six stops in all, and all were great!

This is a great tour to get to experience the food of Mexico in little joints you may not go to as a tourist. It was well paced, the food was excellent, we walked just enough and you are stuffed at the end. Skip breakfast and dinner the day you go! Laura was a really good guide and we enjoyed her very much.

Fun & varied food tour

I try to do food tours when I go on holiday and thus was one of the best. Our tour guide Laura was friendly, knowledgable & made sure to accommodate all the different dietary requirements. The tour was well paced & the food types were suitably varied that you felt like you tried a range of what Mexican cuisine had to offer. I would not recommend this for children.

Unique tour of Centro historico

Great tasting tour with a unique touch. The food tasting were in different venues. Our guide Graciel was dynamic and very knowledgeable. We really appreciated that the tour often included information on buildings or history that are not in all typical guide books. Our tour lasted 6 hours and the time went by quickly. Well done Graciel and Ye!

I am a frequent traveller and bar none, Laura was the best guide I have ever had. She was very knowledgeable and passionate about Mexican food and had many bits and pieces of information that made the tour very engaging and enriching. My biggest regret is taking this tour too late into my stay in CDMX. I would've wanted to know about Mexican cuisine early on to appreciate it more during my 10-day trip. I will be back. This tour is highly recommended and Laura's handling commendable! :-)
