This was one of the best food tours I have done! We got to try so many styles of tacos and it was the perfect way to kick off our trip. Erika was so knowledgeable and friendly. This experience was such an immersion into the culture and I think Erika was a key part!

    Great intro to CDMX!

    Excellent host, very experienced with a rich understanding of the history of the city as well as mezcal.

    So fun!

    Such a fun experience!!! Our guide was very kind, informative, and super relatable. He made sure everyone was accommodated and had fun! The tacos were absolutely amazing and the mezcal was chef’s kiss!

    Do this experience! This was the highlight of our trip to CDMX and the best food tour I've ever been on. The food and drinks were both delicious and bountiful. Our guide (Ishmail) was very friendly, knowledgeable, and fun. The group size was small and had a great vibe. I'd recommend doing the tour early in your stay in CDMX to meet other travelers, get recommendations from the guide, and learn about Mexican cuisine and culture. Overall amazing experience and worth every cent.

    Great tour!

    Sophia_M, Jul 2026
    This tour was fantastic! Our guide was JP, and it was his first solo tour but he did an amazing job. He honestly made the tour great, he was extremely friendly and very knowledgable about tacos, mezcal, and Mexican tradition. I loved the inclusion of mezcal on the tour (especially the surprise at the last spot), and I enjoyed how we tried tacos from different regions of Mexico. Would totally recommend if you are looking for an authentic experience!

    Yummy and educational

    Raj_S, Jun 2026
    You should absolutely try this tour, especially if you’re a solo traveler as it’s the perfect way to meet people. Ismael was a great guide - knowledgeable and a fun personality. He also takes you to try tacos that you won’t come across on regular social media.

    Thank you Erika!

    Erica_C, May 2026
    Ton of fun! Erika is a super knowledgable, friendly, and engaging guide. I had a blast and made friends as a solo traveler

    This taco tour was amazing! We learned so much about the different tacos in Mexico and really enjoyed learning more about the city and Mexican culture from our guide. Would recommend!

    Elisabete_M, Apr 2026
    We had an amazing time. Tacos were delicious, Mezcal was great and we learn a bit more about Mexican culture. We ended up eating amazing food in places that we wouldn't find on our own. I definitely recommend.

    Amazing experience.

    Vishal_M, Apr 2026
    Ismael was the best tour guide you could’ve asked for. I’m a solo traveler who was paired with a group of four who knew each other. He made sure I was part of every conversation and had a good time. Not to mention his distinct knowledge of Mezcal and tacos. I’ve never drank or tasted anything like I’ve had on the tour. There’s no amount of money that would change how passionate he is about either Mezcal or tacos. I recommend you take this tour over any of the other ones out there.

    All the tacos and mezcal you could want!

    Molly_Z, Apr 2026
    Ismael guided us through a wonderful taco and mezcal tour in the Roma Norte neighborhood. We tried 3 taco places and had much mezcal and beer along the way. He provided a fun, informative, and cultural tour. Highly recommend!

    Had an amazing time. We loved being able to explore and learn with a group, and felt like we all got to know each other by the end. One of the best tours we have ever been on!

    Fantastic Tasting Tour

    Jake_S, Mar 2026
    Erika is an incredible tour guide who made this experience better than we could have dreamed. She has wonderful recommendations for Zona Roma, was very friendly, and shared some great knowledge about the Mezcal process. The drinks and tacos we had were amazing, and there was an option to have more than the provided tacos/mezcal, but we felt that it was the perfect amount! Can’t recommend Erika or this tour enough!

    Great tour and guides! ...

    Aaron_F, Mar 2026
    Great tour and guides! Ismael was exciting, knowledgeable, and friendly. I recommend this tour to anyone who loves tacos and mezcal.

    Great Experience

    Lisa_C, Mar 2026
    I highly recommend this tour. Our guide, Ismael, did an excellent job introducing us to mezcal and lots of fantastic taquerias. He also accommodated dietary needs easily. The experience felt like a group of friends getting together for the evening. Fantastic tour!

    So Good!!!

    Shelby_E, Mar 2026
    This tour was so good! Our guide, Ro, was fantastic. Her passion talking about her families Mezcal farm made the experience so memorable and special. The tacos were also unreal. Come hungry cause the food is so good and there are lots of stops! I'd highly recommend the tour for the delicious tacos and mezcal, but Ro's enthusiasm and knowledge made the experience one of the highlights of our trip.

    shareen_w, Mar 2026
    Amazing taco and mezcal tour! It was so fun trying all the different types of tacos and toppings at each stop — everything was delicious. The mezcal tastings were great too, with a fun little surprise along the way. Our tour guide Ishmile was fantastic and made the whole experience even better with his knowledge and great energy. Highly recommend!

    Naureen_S, Mar 2026
    One of the best tours we did! Rosy was amazing and paid attention to every detail. Our group had seven people, which turned out to be the perfect size. We had such a great time. Rosy took us to three incredible places, and we had so many tacos and drinks that I had to take an extra-long walk back to the hotel afterward. I especially loved the first stop, which had Michelin-star barbacoa tacos — definitely my favorite. The mezcals she shared were fantastic, and a couple of them even came from her family’s farm. She also explained the history of mezcal, which was great for those of us who were new to it. All in all, we walked, we ate, we made new friends, and we had an amazing time. Highly recommended!

    John_H, Mar 2026
    Great experience. Rocia was wonderful and changed my perception of Mezcal. I hope to try some of her Mezcal again.

    Don't hesitate to do this one

    Elissa_C, Feb 2026
    What a great tour! Totally worth it- got to know the neighborhood, eat delicious tacos we otherwise would have overlooked- and learn so much about Mezcal and regional taco ingredients and techniques. You can eat and drink as much as you want- but pace yourself. The best part of our tour was Ismael who was an amazing guide! Highly recommend.

    Fun fun fun!

    Christopher_H, Feb 2026
    Fun fun fun! Ismael was a superb host and really made the night - the stories and information were top notch. I had a great time!

    Such a fun experience....

    Joyelle_F, Feb 2026
    Such a fun experience. And a great way to try out a variety of tacos from different parts of Mexico. Ismael was a great guide/host and was engaging. Come hungry! You can get as many tacos as you want.

    A magical three-hour treat.

    Chris_M, Feb 2026
    I am a slightly hackneyed 64 years old and am fortunate to have travelled widely for work & pleasure for 45 years. During that time I have taken countless tours and experienced many guides & advisors. I have no hesitation in ranking Ishmael up there with the very best; his professionalism, knowledge, empathy & humour were outstanding and he made a difficult job ( I know from experience) look easy - a real skill. Take the tour and feel the passion and pride of a true chilango. It's genuinely life-enhancing.

    James_S, Feb 2026
    Ismael was a wonderful host and guide. We had a great time with him and our group. The friendly experience was a highlight of our trip.

    This is the tour to do!

    James_R, Jan 2026
    Such a fantastic way to see a really cool part of the city and learn about mezcal. The taco spots were all amazing and I now consider myself a lover of Mezcal. Ismael was a great guide and he made this experience really special for us. I would love to do this tour again and I’m also interested in his other love like a local tour for our next trip to CDMX.
