Allow yourself to be seduced by the authentic tastes of Mexican food on this tour through the heart of Mexico City, where you'll visit a local market to learn all about the essential ingredients.

Mexico City Food Tour

The tour meets at the main entrance to the Palace of Fine Arts in Mexico City at 1:20 pm, ready to dive into the world of Mexican food!

Itinerary

First, you'll take the subway to Jamaica Market, where endless colorful stalls and unusual smells await. Explore the corridors of this warehouse inaugurated in the 50s while weaving among dozens of kiosks full of flowers, nuts, vegetables, sweet treats, piñatas, and surprises aplenty. Here, you can find top-quality traditional kitchen utensils or maybe some products to take home as a souvenir!

Next, indulge in a tasting of exotic fruits such as carambola, mamey, or chicozapote, accompanied by cheese and mole. Your tour guide will explain how to eat and prepare these delicacies as the Mexicans do, ensuring a total cultural immersion!

You'll also learn about the properties of healing plants and the local alternative medicine practices popular in the capital, along with the meanings of various flowers, many of which have edible varieties.

At 5:30 pm, the Mexico City food tour comes to an end.
