Get ready to explore Mexico City after dark, when the best taquerías come alive. Your evening begins at Serapio Rendón 27 in San Rafael, where you’ll meet your local food expert and fellow travelers. From there, you’ll ride comfortably through the neighborhoods of Condesa, Roma, La Juárez, San Rafael and Anzures, hearing stories of Mexico’s taco heritage and ever‑evolving food scene.
Your first stop is a Michelin‑starred taquería where you skip the line to taste griddle‑seared tacos that have earned a coveted star. Next, you’ll savor tacos al pastor freshly carved from the trompo, sample smoky north‑style tacos, and enjoy the king of the night—suadero tacos, slow‑cooked and intensely flavorful. A modern taquería reveals how creative chefs reinvent tradition, pairing artisanal drinks with inventive fillings.
The grand finale is a visit to a curated mezcal bar. Guided by a mezcal master, you’ll sample different varieties and a cocktail while learning how this ancient agave spirit captures Mexico’s soul. By tour’s end, you’ll have tasted more than a dozen tacos, experienced the diversity of Mexico’s regions, and gained a deeper understanding of how tacos and mezcal reflect the identity and community spirit of Mexico City.

EXCELLENT Based on 32708 reviews Posted on Tripadvisor Philip OwenVerified An exceptional day out Our 2nd time doing this tour but this time with our 2 daughters and boyfriends. Hugo the guide for the day was outstanding, along with the driver. A well planned trip, you get to see and understand about the Mayan history and culture. The Cenote is brilliant and all the family agreed that the restaraunt there served thes tacos we tasted all holidays. A great day outPosted on Tripadvisor Kayleigh CVerified Long day, plenty of memories. Wow, what a fabulous experience! Cesar was a fantastic guide and host (hola hola Coca cola!) He was really knowledgeable and passionate about the Mayan culture. Captain was also a great coach driver and got us everywhere safely. Chichen Itza was something else! You always think of it as the one Temple that's always shown but it's so much more, we would have loved to have spent more time there and explored the other sites but it was extremely hot, definitely recommended hiring an umbrella. The cenote was MAGICAL! Beautiful fresh water and weeny little fish darting around. The kids loved jumping off of the platform. The buffet was also very nice. Drinks were a little on the expensive side but it's a tourist attraction so you can't really expect much else. The stop of Valladolid was short but it rained like nothing I've seen so we got back on the coach early. Very long day but absolutely worth it. Should also mention we had an unexpected first stop at a Mayan artisan place which was lovely.Posted on Tripadvisor lisaVerified Outstanding♥️ Hi Cesar, A truly wonder of the world…highly recommended.
