Itinerary
The Taco Tour Mexico begins with an exciting meet-up with your guide in the heart of Mexico City, a lively capital that is nothing short of a paradise for foodies. Get ready to hop on a culinary adventure that will tantalize your taste buds and introduce you to the authentic and delicious flavors that have made Mexican street food a global sensation. From the street-side stalls to the hidden gems tucked away in local neighborhoods, Mexico City is a hub of flavor, tradition, and passion.
But the real magic lies in tacos! Prepare your taste buds for a feast of generations-old taco recipes. We start with tacos al pastor, the crowd favorite, featuring spit-roasted pork, seasoned with spices and pineapple, creating a perfect balance of savory and sweet. Next, indulge in huitlacoche tacos, made from corn fungus, which has a rich, earthy flavor celebrated by Mexicans for centuries.
We’ll also enjoy the succulent carnitas tacos, slow-cooked pork that melts in your mouth, and tacos de canasta, steamed to perfection with sauces that soak into the tortillas. Cochinita pibil, a Yucatán specialty with marinated pork cooked in banana leaves, offers a tender and citrusy bite that’s unforgettable.
As we continue, we’ll savor mole tacos, where the rich mole sauce made of chiles and chocolate meets tender chicken, and suadero tacos, featuring tender beef cooked in its own fat for a juicy, flavorful experience.
To wash it all down, enjoy refreshing aguas frescas, made with fruits like hibiscus and rice, offering a cooling contrast to the spicy tacos. Throughout the tour, your local culinary expert will guide you, sharing the secrets behind each taco, ingredient, and cooking method.
As the tour ends, you’ll leave with a full belly and a deeper appreciation for Mexico City’s culinary traditions, having tasted the best tacos this lively city has to offer.
