A 4-hour small-group food tour through La Merced and Mercado de Sonora, with local tastings, witchcraft stalls, and pre-Hispanic flavors.
“Stephanie was an excellent guide. She grew up in these markets and knows everybody - we even saw her Dad who owns a stall here! The tour was very well organised. We got to try all kinds of soup, tamales, tacos, quesadillas, juices, tropical fruit and even a smorgasbord of insects! The tour finished with a trip to a huge bakery “take what you want” Stephanie said passing us a huge silver tray each (all included in the price). The tour surpassed my expectations. Go on this tour! It’s great value and you will have access to a whole range of Mexican food. Oh, and a side trip to visit…”
Guided 2.5 to 3 hour walk in Tepito’s Barrio Bravo with local guides, market micheladas, historic churches, and Santa Muerte.
“I loved the tour of Tepito. My guide was Nelly, and she grew up in Tepito and so, was extremely knowledgeable about the history, culture and socio-economic condition of the neighborhood. I started the tour with a certain (un-educated) perspective and left with a totally different view. The people are wonderful...the food is exceptional and the experience is totally unique. Nelly was a prize!”

Eat your way through Mexico City markets, from La Merced to San Juan, with mole tastings and a mezcal finale.
“What a fantastic day exploring Mexico City's vibrant markets! Our guide, Iván from Trippers.Mx, was absolutely outstanding. We spent four hours navigating La Merced, Mercado de San Juan, and Sonora markets like locals, using the subway and bus. The gastronomical journey was incredible, with amazing food at every stop. The day culminated in a wild and unforgettable mezcal tasting featuring exotic additions like scorpions and wasps. It was a truly immersive cultural experience and the best way to spend a day in the city. Highly recommend the tour and especially Iván!”
