Breakfast, snacks and alcoholic beverages are included; expect to cover the route on foot. 4.92 from 121 reviews at €40 per person for 4h. In our comparison: #15 of 29 in Walking Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (table below). ## Overview Over 1,500 reviews on other platforms! New in CDMX and overwhelmed by taco overload? No clue where to start? We’ve got you. This isn’t your average walking tour—it’s a delicious, hilarious, slightly chaotic journey through the real Mexico City, led by a charismatic local (sombrero optional, jokes guaranteed). We kick off in non-touristy Guerrero with a classic breakfast, hit the local market, then dive into history at Monumento a la Revolución—with wild stories you won’t find in textbooks. Hop on the Metro like a true chilango, sip ancient Aztec pulque, and snack on deep-fried quesadillas. We stroll past Palacio de Bellas Artes, wave at Torre Latino, and hear the guide’s most epic love fails. Finally, we hit Centro Histórico for the best tacos in town, and end on a hidden rooftop bar with drinks, views, and vibes. 4 dishes, 3 drinks, no tourist traps. Veg-friendly. 4+ years running. P.S. Plenty vegetarian options too P.S2 +4 years running this experience. ## Before you book - Meeting point: The easiest and cheap way is to take an… - Starts 09:00: one departure a day - Food included: Snacks, Breakfast **Pickup:** No hotel pickup: everyone meets at the start point ## Key facts - Price: from €40 per person - Duration: 4h - Rating: 4.92/5 from 121 reviews (collected from Guidekin & Viator & Tripadvisor) - Free cancellation (see policy below) - Likely to sell out - Operator: Warrior Gastro-Tours - Group: Shared tour - Guide languages: English, Spanish - Start times: 09:00 - Booking: Instant confirmation, mobile ticket - Price checked on Viator: 2026-10-08 ## Reviews 4.92 from 121 ratings on Guidekin, Viator & Tripadvisor. 98% of ratings with a star breakdown are 4 or 5 stars: 119 of 121. - 5 stars: 117 (97%) - 4 stars: 2 (2%) - 3 stars: 0 (0%) - 2 stars: 0 (0%) - 1 star: 2 (2%) ## What's included - Alcoholic Beverages - Snacks - Breakfast ## Itinerary 1. **Over 1,500 reviews on other platforms** (pass by, no stop) - New in CDMX and overwhelmed by taco overload?
