Mexico City Tours for Pyramids, Frida Kahlo and Food

Pyramids, Frida Kahlo and street food, ranked by what travelers book most.

Teotihuacan Pyramids

Teotihuacan is the most booked day trip from Mexico City. The tour with the Guadalupe shrine and lunch is the most reviewed, the early-access tour gets you onto the Avenue of the Dead before the crowds, and the hot-air balloon flight at dawn drifts over the Pyramid of the Sun with an optional pyramid visit afterward.

Frida Kahlo and Xochimilco

The Xochimilco, Coyoacán and Frida Kahlo tour combines the painted boats on the canals with the Blue House in a single day. Tickets for the museum alone sell out weeks ahead, which is why the guided museum tour, with entry included, is the reliable way in.

The Historic Center and Its Food

The historic center essentials walk is the highest-rated introduction to the city, three hours around the Zócalo, the cathedral and the murals. The downtown food tour and the La Merced and Sonora markets tour are the top-rated ways to eat; both are small-group and both involve a lot of tasting.

Lucha Libre and Altitude

The lucha libre night with tequila and mezcal tastings is the most popular evening in the city, masks optional. Mexico City sits at 7,350 feet, so take the first day slowly and drink water before the pyramids. Most tours offer free cancellation up to 24 hours before.
