Overview

Most visitors to Mexico City eat tacos that were designed for tourists. Bright signs, long lines, and the same places everyone on Instagram already knows.

This tour is about the tacos locals actually talk about.

We walk through Condesa tasting your way across some of the city’s most iconic taco styles: pastor shaved straight from the trompo, tacos de canasta that have fueled the city for generations, rich slow cooked barbacoa, perfectly grilled picaña, and seafood tacos that completely change the way people think about tacos.

Along the way you will hear the stories behind the food, learn how taco culture became the heartbeat of Mexico City, and experience the kind of places people only discover after living here.

These are the tacos people remember when the trip is over, the kind that make you start planning your next visit before you even leave the city.

What to expect

  1. 10m
    We begin near Parque México in the heart of Condesa with a quick introduction to Mexico City's taco culture before heading to the first stop. Mexico City has thousands of taquerías, but locals know the best tacos often live in the most unexpected places. This tour is about finding those.
  2. Condesa
    2h
    Our first taco introduces one of the most famous flavors in the city: al pastor. Pork slowly spins on a vertical trompo, caramelizing as it cooks. The meat is shaved directly onto a tortilla and topped with pineapple, onion, and salsa. You'll also try a gringa, a local favorite that melts cheese and pastor together in a way that makes people instantly understand why Mexico City takes tacos so seriously.st
  3. Roma Norte
    30m
    We finish the tour with seafood tacos and mezcal, bringing a fresh and vibrant ending to the experience. Bright citrus, ocean flavors, and a final toast of mezcal make the perfect way to wrap up the night.
