Top Central Mexico Running Tours

Walk through Mexico City as it blooms with marigolds and memory. This is not just a Day of the Dead tour — it’s a journey through stories, rituals, and the echoes of the underworld. From the grand altars of the Zócalo to the hidden corners of the old city, you’ll explore how Mexicans have danced with death for centuries — with humor, beauty, and defiance. Led by an actor and storyteller, Gossip with the Dead blends theatre, history, and sociology to reveal how the living keep company with the dead — and how every offering tells a story about who we are.

The tour begins with a visit to the Blue House of the Kahlo family in Coyoacán. Take a look at the intimacy of the iconic Mexican painter among the sketches and paintings of her originally preserved rooms; and learn about Frida's historical context, her ideals, her great love Diego Rivera, and her abundant lovers, passions, and pains. The tour continues to Plaza Hidalgo, where you will learn more about the history and context of Coyoacán and its main attractions today.
