Mexico City · DRINKING TOURS
Good bar crawls fill up weeks ahead and the great ones go first. Below: the 10 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
Review of Xochimilco’s 18+ party boat with a two-hour trajinera ride, open bar, music, taquitos, and practical tips for booking.
“This was a really fun afternoon. I went with my husband and some friends. Unlimited drinks and good food. Fun music too. Highly recommend going with a group.”
Mexico City Lucha Libre with tacos, beer, mezcal, expert guides, and arena tickets. A lively 3 to 4 hour night out for $84.
“I liked the show and it was quite entertaining and lively. We went on Friday night and the crowd was great! The only thing I didn’t like was that we were asked to meet a place called jazz that looked like someone’s garage, not an actually bar, so no drink options other then whatever they had -very very limited. We were there for over an hour to later walk to a taco stand. The tacos here were really good! The venue was about 15 minute walk - so overall 7-9:45 was spent between these two places and watched the last three fights.”
Learn lucha libre rules over tacos, mezcal, tequila, or beer, then cheer at Arena Mexico with an English-speaking guide in Mexico City.
“A lot of activity, walking fast! The communication was good, be prepared to climb steps so would not recommend if you need any accommodation or assistance otherwise it is great!”
Review of Mexico City’s guided pub crawl through Roma Norte and Condesa, with party games, welcome drinks, local guides, and four to five bars.
“The tour was muy divertido (so much fun ). it doesn’t matter if you go solo (like I did), there are so many people to talk to! I had an amazing time. the drinks were great. and the last club we went to, I enjoyed dancing. I 100% recommend this tour!!!!!!”
Review of Xochimilco’s two-hour international boat party with unlimited drinks, tacos, music, and a small group capped at 20 people.
“We had the best time on this boat ride! From the moment we stepped on, the music, drinks, and nonstop good vibes were on point. We were treated to rolled taquitos and snacks during the 2 hour trip, which made it even better. Allen and Alex were next level amazing, so much fun, incredibly attentive, and genuinely friendly. They kept the energy HIGH and the drinks coming the entire time and made sure everyone was having an unforgettable experience. Laughs, great music, great food, drinks, and amazing energy all around. This was hands down one of the most fun experiences we’ve had on the water. If you’re thinking about booking…”
Explore Mexico City's craft cocktail scene with Mauricio, visiting three top bars in a private six-person crawl with drinks purchased separately.
“The bar crawl was truly a great experience! Each one of the bars was superb, but what I most enjoyed was the masterful cocktail recommendations from the host. He was fantastic and truly facilitated an unforgettable experience!”

Review of Mexico City’s historic cantina tour, with tequila, mezcal, mariachi, three classic bars, transport, costs, and practical tips.
Explore Mexico City’s historic cantinas, hear mariachi at El Tenampa, taste tequila, and visit La Mascota and La Reforma by Turibus.
“El tour debe durar mas tiempo, en el recorrido se pierde mucho tiempo por el tráfico, debe haber mayor organización, en una de las cantinas solo había un mesero para atender a tanta gente, se tardan demasiado en atender en las cantinas, al final nos traen corriendo y tardan en cobrar lo que consumimos, debe haber comunicación con las cantinas y tener los lugares suficientes ya reservados para la gente que llega, en el Tenampa solo tenían mesa para 18 personas y eramos como 50, TODAS las cantinas debieran ofrecer Botana al comprar bebidas y NO fue así. por eso mi calificación. La Cantina LA MASCOTA, EXCELENTE TRATO, AMBIENTE, COMIDA,…”
Sip tequila, mezcal, pulque, wine, and beer on a mariachi-filled trajinera ride through Mexico City's Xochimilco canals.
“Tour operator cancelled and didn’t let me know. Waited almost 2 hours only to find out it was cancelled. Very unprofessional”
Pick a ruin, a canal, a kitchen or a ring.
