Mexican food is about so much more than just tacos; it’s a cuisine that has an immense depth of flavor, combining savory, earthy and fresh flavors to create vibrant, colorful and most importantly delicious dishes. But to really get the full, off-the-beaten-path experience, visitors need to be shown the way by a local with a real passion for Mexican food.

Mexican Food Tours takes intrepid foodies on walking food tours through Mexico City to sample the very best authentic Mexican food. Customers try both savory and sweet local specialties while exploring the ever-colorful Mexico City through the eyes of a local. And as it’s a walking tour, you won’t miss a thing in this unique journey through a city where you never know what culinary delights are just around the corner.

Set up by passionate local foodies Connie Estefan and Jimena Gil, Mexican Food Tours is all about guiding people through the wide variety of food offered in Mexico City. They want to educate people about the intricacies of the local cuisine, such as traditional Mexican sauce mole. But not just one kind – travelers will sample three delicious and distinctly different types of mole.

“The great gastronomic variety of Mexican food will pose a dilemma if you visit Mexico for only a few days,” says Connie.

“A Mexican food tour guided by a local food connoisseur will allow you to find the best and most representative culinary delights of Mexico in only a few hours.”

The goal of Mexican Food Tours is to let people experience Mexico City in a way that normally only the locals do. The two main Mexico City walking tours they offer are the Polanco Tour and Market Tour, and they’re both about enjoying great food while learning about the exciting and diverse cultural, historical and architectural wonders that Mexico has to offer.

The tours are offered daily and cost .
