Experience everyday life in Mexico City as you walk its streets with a friendly local guide. You will shop for groceries in two off-the-beaten-path street markets and ride public transit, moving through neighbourhoods where locals shop, eat and socialise. Along the way you will savour traditional street foods like tacos and tamales, sampling flavours that are part of daily routines.
As you move through the city, your guide will explain its history, culture and politics, and how those threads shape the places you visit. You will discover how Mexico’s culinary traditions—shaped by indigenous ingredients, regional flavours and generations of family cooking—continue to influence the vibrant foods you taste throughout the tour. The experience offers a grounded, local perspective on both food and city life.
