The guides were amazing and I felt very comfortable and safe as a solo woman. The seats were great and it really is a must do experience. The bar meetup was a good idea to make everyone feel comfortable
Brian_D, Apr 2026
Leo and Alexito were awesome guides. They were highly entertaining on their own. The experience was well organized and the guides were attentive. It was a fun immersive experience and highly recommend.
Steven_H, Apr 2026
This was a really fun Experience! Alex and Leo were great tour guides and showed a fun cultural experience I'm not sure you can really experience anywhere else in the world. The night starts off with some drinks, and I 100% would partake if you do, then we headed to the wrestling colosseum. Overall a really fun night and experience!
Natalie_B, Apr 2026
We had so much fun on this adventure and would absolutely do it again. Great guide and fun way to experience local culture.
Linda_M, Apr 2026
Great guides, local cultural experiences and fun vibe . Going to the local bar before the wrestling match was loads of fun and giving us a luchadores mask for the match made it even more fun.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Hi, Linda
We’re really glad you joined us and appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. It means a lot to know you enjoyed it, and we hope to see you again on another tour soon ✨
Calvin_H, Apr 2026
Paid a lot of money for a BS tour and the cheapest seats in the whole venue. One more of these and I’m done. I recommend the show but I’d advise buying your tickets on ticket master and catching an uber. It’s safe.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
We regret that the experience was not as expected. Please note that the experience includes a tasting at the bar and a souvenir, which are part of what is offered. Seating is subject to venue allocation, and we always aim to provide the best possible arrangement. Thank you for sharing your feedback.
Abraham_M, Mar 2026
Lots of fun - our guide provided us with fun historical context while at the same time making sure to immerse us in the experience.
Charlie_K, Mar 2026
We had a great time! Our tour guide Alex made our entire night. Alex was fun, energetic, informative, and was so much fun. We loved Alex!!!!
Response from Host, Apr 2026
It’s great to know you enjoyed the tour! Alex will be delighted to hear your feedback. Looking forward to your next visit 🚶♀️✨
Michael_C, Mar 2026
Tad and Alex were such a blast! They brought so much energy and crammed a lot of amazing experiences into a just a couple hours. Would absolutely recommend these guides!
Response from Host, Apr 2026
So nice to hear you enjoyed the tour! We’ll make sure to share this with Tadeo and Alex they’ll be glad to know. See you again soon 🙌

Really fun time. Leo (English guide) knows his stuff and makes the history enjoyable and interactive with references. He also really brings the spirit in the arena, even started a few section wide chants.
Each stop has enough time to not feel rushed and we were given warnings as to the best time to go to the bathroom during the show. The walk back to the starting location felt safe even though it was dark, and Leo did a good job keeping us away from potential pickpockets. Pulque has now become one of my favorite drinks.
Oscar_S, Mar 2026
It’s better to book directly through Ticketmaster you can save around $80 per ticket. The tour guide didn’t add much value; they simply walked us to the venue and that was about it. Overall, I wouldn’t book this service again.
Wendy_S, Mar 2026
We had a wonderful time, trying new things and enjoying the spirit of Luche Libre. Our guide was great and the show was lots of fun.
Response from Host, Mar 2026
We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the experience and the spirit of Lucha Libre. Thank you for joining us!
Elaine_G, Mar 2026
If you like local historical culture, excitement, and crowds, go for it!
Our English-speaking guide (Leo?) was very friendly, knowledgeable, professional, and eager to share his culture.
We had amazing seats in the Lucha Libre arena. Unforgettable!
Response from Host, Mar 2026
We're very glad to hear you had such a memorable experience. Leo will be very happy to hear your kind words. Thank you for joining us and for sharing your experience!
Manny_T, Mar 2026
Great experience and I highly recommend it. We went out with a group of friends and we had a great time.

Nicole_S, Mar 2026
Tour guide Leo was great and was knowledgeable about the history of pulque and lucha libre. Group was great about communicating the day of. Very slight confusion about the meeting point (Metrobus Station Cuauhtemoc was given to me in a WhatsApp message earlier in the day, but it ended up being in front of Vips restaurant, which was just across the street), but it was fine because they were responsive when I reached out to confirm.
Things felt a little rushed. We only got a small cup of pulque at the bar and listened to life music for a little bit. Then as we left to go to lucha libre, they revealed that we were arriving late because the first two of five matches weren't worth it. I would've rather started earlier or done the pulque and live music after the lucha Libra.
Response from Host, Mar 2026
Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback. We’re very happy to hear that you enjoyed the experience and that Leo helped make the night interesting and informative. Regarding the timing of the matches, we usually skip the first ones because the full event can be quite long, and we try to avoid the experience feeling repetitive or tiring for our guests inside the arena. We truly appreciate your comment, as it helps us continue improving the experience. Thank you again for joining us!
Nicholle_C, Mar 2026
Soooooo much fun! Hands down one of the most fun experiences of my life. Yelling obscenities at luche libres is therapy for the heart. Alex was a wonderful tour guide.
Response from Host, Mar 2026
Alex will be glad to hear your kind words. Thank you for joining us!
Michael_H, Feb 2026
Had a lot of fun, don't pass this experience up. Ask the tour guides for taco shop recommendations for after.
Response from Host, Mar 2026
We’re glad you enjoyed the experience. Lucha libre is one of the most vibrant traditions in Mexico City, and it’s always special to share it with travelers.
Emily_K, Feb 2026
Great experience- Leo did a great job to describe the event and help to explain the history- very well done
Response from Host, Mar 2026
Thank you for joining this experience with us. Lucha libre is full of energy, tradition, and fun, and we’re happy you enjoyed it.
Peter_M, Feb 2026
Go for it! Our guides were great and made it fun. Estrella was our guide but they all work as a team to explain how it all works. It was a great experience!
Response from Host, Mar 2026
We’re happy to hear you had such a great time. The excitement of a lucha libre night in Mexico City is something truly special.
Taylor_P, Feb 2026
It was fun to walk around and learn about some of the history. There’s plenty of time at each stop to enjoy the event on the itinerary, grab a street taco, or use the restroom. The operators use WhatsApp to communicate with you if there are changes - very important to note!
Response from Host, Mar 2026
Thank you very much for your kind review. We’re very happy to hear you had fun. Lucha libre is one of the most exciting cultural experiences in the city.
Vasavi_R, Feb 2026
The overall experience was great! Clear instructions on where to meet and the experience was exactly as described. We had a great experience at the pulcheria and Luche Libre was so fun. The best part of the experience was our guide, Sophia. She was warm, genuine, and a great story teller!
Response from Host, Feb 2026
Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We’re so happy everything met your expectations, and Sophia will be delighted to hear your kind words. It’s great to know you had such a fun night 😊🎉
Jaime_L, Feb 2026
Our guides Thaddeo and Alex were both great with positive energy and the experience itself was fun and entertaining but unfortunately the seats were all the way at the very top of the arena and obscurbed by a structure. Otherwise, a solid night of entertainment and drink.
Response from Host, Feb 2026
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. Due to a special event at the arena that day, seating was limited and assigned accordingly. We truly appreciate your understanding and are glad you still enjoyed the energy of the night with Tadeo and Alex 🎭✨
Nathan_T, Feb 2026
We had so much fun! Our guide gave us great historical and cultural context on why wrestling is such a big deal here, and explained the different character types and what they represent. Without that, we would have had no idea what was going on — it honestly made the whole experience so much better. Thank you!
Response from Host, Feb 2026
Thank you for joining us! It means a lot to know the context shared made a real difference, creating memorable and meaningful experiences is always our goal 😊✨
Letty_D, Feb 2026
In our inaugural experience with your tour service, we encountered some unexpected challenges that deviated from our expectations of Viator. The establishment where we were served beverages was subpar, and the atmosphere in the corner bar, filled with boxes, was unappealing. Additionally, the seats at the arena were uncomfortable.
Response from Host, Mar 2026
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We understand that for some people the atmosphere of the bar may feel different or not exactly what they expected. We truly appreciate your comments, as they help us continue improving the experience for future guests. Thank you for joining us.
Brooke_B, Feb 2026
Alex made the experience SO fun! He was knowledgeable and honestly so funny. Had the best time! My friends and I will definitely recommend to others!
Response from Host, Mar 2026
Thank you for being part of lucha libre experience with Alex. We’ll make sure he receives your words.
Ari_G, Feb 2026
Started welll then a drunk guard attacked our guides and beat one of them the police watched and the other drunk guard prevented us from going forward.
It was so sad..but for the record if it was in the US he would have been shot
Kenneth_T, Feb 2026
Our guide Alex was great! He made the whole experience more fun, easier to navigate, and in depth than just going alone. The reason for only 4 stars is the tequila was watered down and the seats we got were way in the back, where the roof obscured some of the view.
Response from Host, Mar 2026
We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the experience with Alex and that he helped make the evening more fun and engaging. He’ll be very happy to hear your message.
Regarding the tequila, we would like to clarify that we do not serve diluted tequila; the drinks are provided directly by the venue. As for the seating, since it was a special event, the ticket sales and seat assignments were handled by the arena itself, which can sometimes affect availability and location.
We truly appreciate you sharing your feedback and hope the energy and excitement of the lucha libre night made it a memorable experience.
Noah_K, Jan 2026
One of the highlights of the trip! Beto was a great tour guide that explained the local area and customs
Response from Host, Mar 2026
We’re grateful for your review. We truly appreciate your time and feedback

Visit a pulqueria and luche libre at the Coliseo, loved the old venue, really highlighted the event.

Was fun overall. The Lucha Libre was entertaining yet cheesy. But something to see while in Mexico City.
