Great evening in Roma Norte
A great way to get to know Roma Norte and some of the culture of Mexico City. Ismael, the guide, was knowledgeable and friendly he truly cared that the group was having fun. He connected with each person in the group so they got the best experience. The tacos were delicious and the Mezcals some of the best.

What a great way to start our visit to Mexico City. Ismael was an amazing host . Tasted some delicious tacos and sampled different mezcals with history included. Great value and would highly recommend.

Yes, take this journey!
Our tour expert was Ismael. He was so much more than your typical tour guide. Ismael was of course knowledgeable, as he should be, obviously. Beyond that, he was personable, and great to explore the area with. His recommendations were outstanding. This was a tacos and mezcal tour. We feel like we knew about tacos, and btw, outstanding picks! However, we learned so much about mezcal, it was rather enlightening. Our guide has traveled throughout Mexico, and has had real world, hands on experiences with the production of mezcal. We learned about notes, flavor profiles, pairings, how to sniff and taste it. So often mezcal and tequila experiences can be about just taking shots - this was not that. We walked away so grateful for learning so much with a great person. Thank you Ismael!

Tacos & Mezcal: Eat Like a Local in Mexico City: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Mexico City.
How much does Tacos & Mezcal: Eat Like a Local in Mexico City cost?
+
Prices start at $78 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Mexico City usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Tacos & Mezcal: Eat Like a Local in Mexico City take?
+
Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Mexico City is not rushed.
Is Tacos & Mezcal: Eat Like a Local in Mexico City worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 78 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 234 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Mexico City, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Tacos & Mezcal: Eat Like a Local in Mexico City?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Tacos & Mezcal: Eat Like a Local in Mexico City suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Tacos & Mezcal: Eat Like a Local in Mexico City?
+
Around 82 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Mexico City can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Mexico City and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Tacos & Mezcal: Eat Like a Local in Mexico City start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Mexico City within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Mexico City?
+
On Outty we rank every Mexico City experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Teotihuacan 3 Pyramids Tour + Hotel Pick Up + Lunch at La Gruta, Historic Center Essentials: Mexico City Downtown Walking Tour, PREMIUM Frida Kahlo Museum and Xochimilco (Small Groups). The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Mexico City?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Mexico City?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
