If there is one thing you do in Mexico City, this is the thing. Arturo was a blast. We learned a lot about both Mezcal and Lucha Libre. The group was awesome, the walk was awesome, the Mezcal was awesome and most importantly the wrestling was awesome.

Arturo is the best guide. He took care of everything for us. The mezcal tasting was fun and informative. Our seats for the Lucha Libra were great. He even waited until everyone until everyone got their rides back from the arena. This was our second time taking this tour with Arturo, we highly recommended it.

So much fun!!

Hallie_M, Apr 2026
We had such a good time going to Lucha Libre with Arturo. He was so fun and enthusiastic. Such a fun experience. Learned the history and rules of Lucha Libra and enjoyed every minute of it!!

Lucha Libre for the First Time – So Much Fun!

Onnicha_A, Apr 2026
This was my very first time experiencing Lucha Libre, and I honestly didn’t know what to expect but it turned out to be one of the most fun and memorable experiences of my trip. Our guide, Arturo, was absolutely amazing. He didn’t just take us from point A to point B, but truly brought the whole experience to life. Along the way, he shared interesting insights about the history and culture of Lucha Libre, which made everything feel much more meaningful. What I loved most was how interactive the tour was he kept us engaged with fun activities and made sure everyone felt included and excited. By the time we arrived at the arena, I felt like I understood the spirit of Lucha Libre much more. The energy inside was incredible so lively, colorful, and full of passion. Even as someone who had never watched wrestling before, I found myself completely drawn into the excitement, cheering along with the crowd. This experience was not just about watching wrestling it was about connecting with a unique part of Mexican culture. I had so much fun, learned a lot, and created memories I’ll never forget. Highly recommend this tour, especially if it’s your first time!

Great experience!!

Great experience

Brett_S, Mar 2026
This was a great experience! Our host Arturo was amazing and friendly. He has a passion for wrestling that helps when he is explaining the history and culture. First stop the Mezcal tasting is a great experience. Every one of the Mezcal’s has a smooth finish with no harsh bite. Flavors vary from fruity to a smoked finish. My son (8 years old) was with us and he got a smoothie. Next we walked to the arena. It is crowded getting in but Arturo was with us the whole way and lead us to our seats. It took less than 5 minutes from the doors to our seats! Now the matches are fun and exciting, kids and adults will enjoy the high flying action. After the match Arturo walked us to a safe spot for our Uber and waited with us until our Uber came. We would love to do this again!

Very Fun Night

Jacob_T, Mar 2026
The wrestling is silly but a good time if you buy into it. Definitely one of the highlights of the trip and having a former wrestler as a guide adds a lot to it (Arturo was great). Dont worry about seating locations as all the seats offer a great view. The Mezcal tasting is a nice touch but the wrestling is definitely the highlight. Would highly recommend.

It's Lucha Time!!!

bmjv77, Mar 2026
Arturo was the best. As a wrestling fan, I thought that I knew all there was about the sport, but he taught me so much more. The mezcal tasting was fun enough, but going to the CMLL event was even more amazing. Great seats, and an electric atmosphere. What better way to spend a Friday night.

Highly Recommend!

Liz_J, Feb 2026
A wonderful experience!! Arturo is the best tour guide and full of knowledge. We had delicious mezcal and then walked to the arena & watched Luche Libre which was so fun! Highly recommend this experience!

Just book this, don't question it.

It was an amazing experience

Juan_R, Feb 2026
Great fun. Arturo is a terrific guide for this event since he is an ex wrestler. We had a small group of 8 and he made it very interesting and fun. And not sonhard but having him near all the time made us feel comfortable and safe

Very nice excursion

Angeli_M, Jan 2026
We had very good seats at the arena and the guide Artouro was very nice. The masks given were nice too.

A tour full of amazing surprises!

Melissa_R, Jan 2026
This tour exceeded my expectations. I've never been into wrestling, but I had the best time with my husband and our tour guide, Arturo, who is a former luchador. We started at a local bar for an insider mezcal tasting. It was very cool to understand more about mezcal and taste the differences between the varieties. We then took a walk to Arena Mexico for a spectacular show. Great seats! We really got into the theatrics. 1000% recommend this tour, especially if you're lucky enough to get paired with Arturo!

Fun to see Luche Libre with the kids!

Ursula_T, Jan 2026
Really enjoyed this tour. Started with some mezcal tasting and then walked to Luche Libre. Our kids had mango shakes which they enjoyed. I liked that we got our own masks and our seats were perfect. Could not have asked for better seats. I felt this tour was great value and felt safe going to the show with Andres, rather than on our own, as we heard the area of the show was a bit sketchy. Andres was very knowledgable and engaging. The kids enjoyed the show as well, although it went pretty late 11pm. I think we were all tired by the end of it. We took an uber home from the event.

Amazing

Naddia_B, Dec 2025
Arturo was amazimg ! It was like being with a good friend. I especially liked that he stayed to ensure we were safe in our transport back. The Mezcal tasting top notch

Recommend!

Malari_S, Nov 2025
We absolutely loved this tour. Arturo was a really fun guide and he explained everything about Lucha Libre to us before hand, as well as told us what was happening during the matches. We did the tour with two kids and they had the best time! Definitely a major trip highlight. Highly recommend!

Fantastic

Gerry_W, Nov 2025
We had the most amazing evening. Our tour guide Arturro was top class - he was knowledgeable, funny and took great care of our group as we navigated the street. The mescal tasting was fun and the wrestling even better - we had a night to remember. Thank you, I would definitely recommend.

Go Místico!

Sherri_B, Nov 2025
A really fun experience! Mexcal tasting was fun - complete with guacamole and crickets. Our guide, Arturo, is a former wrestler himself and shared with us some of the history and rituals of Luche Libre. Event itself was a blast and Arturo did not leave his group until every person was in a cab or accounted for. Highly recommend

Fun from start to finish!...

Donna_G, Oct 2025
Fun from start to finish! Arturo's enthusiasm and first-hand knowledge of Luche Libre set the tone for an unforgettable experience. The evening began sampling and learning about Mezcal followed by an interesting walk to the arena. During our walk Arturo prepared us for what to expect at the arena like which side to cheer for (téchnicos=good or rudos=bad). This Luche Libre experience with Arturo was a loud, wildly flashy, over the top fun time!

The Lucha Libre tour was an unforgettable adventure! Our guide, Arturo, was exceptional—engaging and charismatic, he went out of his way to make sure everyone felt fully immersed in the excitement. Watching the matches live was utterly surreal, bringing a cherished childhood dream to vibrant life.

Incredibly fun, authentic lucha libre experience

Juan_L, Sep 2025
Incredibly fun! More than we expected. Arturo was amazing! He's a former Luchador, and provided us with so much history of the sport. He was super nice and accommodating, and very fun to be with. If you want to experience authentic Luchador/Lucha Libre Mexican wrestling, this is what you're looking for. You won't be disappointed.

Awesome Tasting and Lucha Libre Match

Chase_E, Sep 2025
Fun evening led by Arturo, an energetic and amiable former luchador. Starting the tour with an informative Mezcal tasting creates a lively group atmosphere that enhances the Lucha Libre experience at Arena México. My wife and I loved this tour, and we highly recommend Arturo as a tour guide.

A Really Fun Night

Elizabeth_L, Aug 2025
This was the perfect vacation outing! Our guide, Andres, was charming and intelligent; he taught us much about both Mezcal and Lucha Libre, and he provided us with masks of current luchadores so we could fully experience the fights. We had such a good time!

Guide Arturo was good-...

Nancy_B, Jul 2025
Guide Arturo was good- knowledgeable - fun - attentive. However, for the amount of money paid we could have had better seats. Suggest the seats should be on the front side where wrestlers concentrate their attention to the crowd.

Awesome tour guide & show!

Amanda_M, Jul 2025
We booked this for a Sunday and we had a great time! Arturo is a former luchador and very knowledgeable overall; he’s a fantastic storyteller, very enthusiastic and funny, and ready with many anecdotes to give you a deeper sense of what’s going on and why, more so than what is readily apparent just from watching the show. The mezcal tasting is a must-do and includes amazing guacamole, chips, and chapullins + smoothies for the kids. He gave us luchador masks and when we spotted one of the show’s luchadors near the entrance as we arrived, he suggested we approach him to get a picture, which was such a neat unexpected highlight! Arturo waited for our Uber to arrive before we parted ways for safety purposes, which we appreciated as it was busy around the arena after the show due to crowds and traffic. Having an insider knowledgeable about Lucha libre to give us additional context and guide us exactly where to go and what to do was great peace of mind too. Our seats were really fantastic too. Highly recommend!
