The content of the food tour has the potential to be really good. Needs a little editing. Our guide, Daniel was 30 mins late due to a miscommunication that was no fault of our own. The foods he brought us to were delicious and we enjoyed ourselves. It felt like someone was taking us to their favorite spots. It was good but not impressed.

Silvia is a fantastic wealth of knowledge about not only food, but Mexico City. She was able to take us to so many places we wouldn’t have gone on our own. She had inspired us to come and explore more of Mexico City!

This was a very poor experience. I suffered a Segway accident on a tour earlier in the day. Before the start of the food tour, I reached out to the guide to see if cancelation was possible. I wasn't even sure if I was going to need to cancel, just wanted to see if it was an option. Right away the guide tried to take advantage to get a paid night off. First she said "So I imagine will not make it for the tour later today?" Then she said she can't cancel because it's a two hour drive from her house to the meeting point. Then when I said I would tough it out with my injuries she tried to talk me out of coming by saying "it's a walking tour" (which I obviously already knew) and then when I said fine, she went further to say "approx 4- 4.5 miles in total." Later in the evening she slipped and admitted that she only lives 10 miles from the meeting point and it only takes her 45 minutes to get there. Also I clocked the distance on my apple watch and it was only two miles total...so she basically lied to try to get us to cancel without a refund. As for the tour itself, it was a huge waste of over $400 usd. It was supposed to be ten "tastings" but it was only five stops. She tried to justify that by saying each stop had one food and one drink, bere two of them were water. Also three of the stops were tacos, two of which were El pastor. The other two were churros and baked goods, which would have been fine, but the second stop was churros and milkshakes. We came hungry, naturally, so it was impossible to resist the sweets since the first stop was just one tiny taco...so by the third stop we were pretty much full from the sweets and didn't really enjoy the food after that...or maybe we were just sick of tacos. Also each stop cost her less than 300 pesos, but the total cost of the tour for us was over 7,000 pesos for four people. That means her profit was over 1400 pesos per stop (over $80 usd). I've done two different food tours in Mexico City on previous trips and they both provided a much wider variety of food. There is so much more to Mexican food than tacos so this just felt like an overpriced tourist trap and was very disappointing.

Our “food tour” started with peanuts, then it got even worse as the tour continued. We went to cheap places to eat tacos all night. Complete waste of money, and time.

Luz was a great tour guide. As a local to the area, she knew the best places to take us, and even gave us recommendations for places to shop and dine later. We stopped at several local vendors around the Centro Historico, giving us a glimpse of local life. Luz was very accommodating and enjoyed answering questions about her city. The tour was a lot of walking, so bring comfortable shoes!

Don't waste your money for 3 variations of a taco and some pastry.
Apparently provider counts beverage served at the 5 stops as 5 of the tastings.

Our party of four thoroughly enjoyed the food tour with Luz. It was both fun and informative. She provided interesting historical and social context, and we appreciated her sensitivity to the lives of working people in Mexico. The food sampling was great, and we were so stuffed that we asked to skip one of the stops and had her tour us through the Zocalo instead. We were very satisfied with the experience, in every sense of the word.

Luz was the absolute best tour guide! She was bilingual, friendly and informative and all of the foods on the tour were absolutely delicious. It was a great way to walk and explore the city, I think it is great to do early in your trip so you can go back to places if you want.
