About this experience

This is not your typical food tour. This is how locals eat tacos.

Join us for a curated taco crawl through San Rafael, one of Mexico City’s most vibrant, under-the-radar neighborhoods. Round-trip private transportation from central CDMX is included. We’ll take you to four of our favorite spots, each carefully selected for its flavor, story, and local soul.

From sizzling street classics to unexpected gems, every stop is a different take on what a taco can be. Along the way, we’ll show you what to order, how to eat it properly, and why each place matters.

This is not about checking boxes, it’s about tasting the city the way it’s meant to be experienced: bold, messy, and unforgettable.

Come hungry and leave with a full belly and a happy heart.

I did the Taco Experience and it was a great event!!! Very fun and educational (even for someone who's been in Mexico for 9 years!), and the food and drinks were delicious.
