A Must-Do Taco & Mezcal Experience in Polanco! - If you’re visiting Mexico City and want to dive into the rich flavors of authentic tacos and artisanal mezcal, this tour in Polanco is absolutely essential. From start to finish, it was a fun, flavorful, and cultural deep-dive that exceeded all expectations. We visited several taco spots — each with its own specialty, from juicy al pastor, tender barbacoa, to tasty suadero. Our guide Viry was incredibly knowledgeable, not only about the food and drinks but also about the history of Mexican cuisine and mezcal production. The mezcal tastings were equally memorable — smooth, smoky, and expertly explained. We learned about different agave types, production techniques, and how to actually sip and appreciate mezcal (not shoot it!). Highly recommend for foodies, culture lovers, and anyone looking for a local experience off the usual tourist track. Come hungry and ready to sip!

Exceptional tour! - This was a super fun, delicious, and educational tour. Viry is an exceptional guide with a deep knowledge of the foods and beverages of Mexico. The taco stops were all great in their own way and the Polanco neighborhood is a treat to walk around. There was the perfect amount of walking- not too much but enough to have a little time between stops. And the mezcal tasting was also very informative. We loved every bit of the tour.

Great food and drinks! - We were lucky enough to have Viri as our guide for consecutive days. She is funny, engaging, and knowledgable about Mexico City’s food, culture, and history. The tacos were beyond amazing, and I even discovered a mezcal I liked! We thoroughly enjoyed our time with her and made a new friend in CDMX. Highly recommend this tour!

Muy Sabroso Experience! - Fantastic experience with Viry as my guide. Got a wide range of tacos in short period of time, and Viry gives you background history of tacos and mezcal. The area of Polanco was slso gorgeous. I’m from Southern California, so lots of Mexican food; however, you learn the Mexican food in America is only one type of Mexican food and that the Central and Southern regions of Mexico have their own cuisines. I was a solo traveler in Mexico City and the only person who signed up for this tour, but it still happened. Super grateful Mexico Food Tours still gave the tour as a private tour vice cancelling! Thank you so much Viry! If I could give more than 5 Stars I would!!

Friendly introduction to Mexican food and mezcal culture - Excellent introduction to the world of tacos and mezcal. The guide is friendly and knowledgeable and the walking between venues is limited. The tour is in the upmarket and safe Polanco district, very close to Polanco metro station. I could have kept going all afternoon - every stop was delicious!

Great experience with a local guide! - The tour was amazing and our guide was great! My husband and I dont speak spanish very well so our guide explained everything extremely well in english. She took us to some great taco spots. The third spot I think was the best because it was a place we would have walked by originally but had the BEST lengua tacos. The mezcal tasting at the end was great and our guide was very informative about the different types of mezcals. Overall it was a great tour and it was nice connecting with a local and learning kore about Mexico City culture, history, and food.
