“Host was amazing. Tour was worth every penny and really enjoyed the ceviche. One of our favorite things about our trip to Mexico City.”
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.”

“Carlo is the perfect tour guide and a true gentleman. I arrived to the meet up site and desperately needed to use a restroom. He lent me the pesos I needed and steered me to the closest restroom. I was able to enjoy the whole tour. Now to his real expertise - this guy knows his historical facts and his culinary facts. He led us through the bustling streets with ease like we were walking with a friend. Nothing was too rushed or too slow. The walk was NOT hard and I am corporate desk jockey. The food was fantastic and it was not all tacos or tostadas. They were…”

Cook a Mexican meal with Chef José, shop at a local market, and learn practical recipes in a small Mexico City class.
“Did not have the mezcal tasting or any alcohol tasting. The market tour was not done he just went in and bought his supplies and said to go look around. We have still not received any recipes! We did another cooking class in Mexico which was much better with full market tour and tastings. Wish I would have chosen that company again. Do not book this one!”
