Jossie was full of enthusiasm and information as she took us on a cultural and food journey through Cayoacan. Each stop was well planned and by the time we got to the churros at the end of the tour we were very happy campers.

The tour checked all our boxes on terms of variety, length, energy and amount of information about all the food and drink we sampled and enjoyed. Our guide, Thelma, was superb.
Tania was amazing and a fun guide! All the stops on the tour were great and loved each of them, and so delicious! Def would do again and recommend anyone to do it!
Thelma and Jimena are THE BEST
Coyoacán food tour- Sabores Mexico. Thelma was our food guide, she was fantastic, informational and great to talk with. The food was amazing, and provided a great introduction to the local art district.
Wonderful, personalized experience to try so many different absolutely delicious foods! Thelma was absolutely fantastic! She provides a historical and cultural overview of the area, and she guides you from place to place. Thelma made sure that you get the most out of the experience and explains each food option very well. Would highly recommend as you will try things you’ve never had before and have someone making sure you’re enjoying every minute without feeling rushed at all!!
100% should do this one ! Jimena was really knowledgeable and made a special stop for our small group. We got to experience food we would have never known about. It was the perfect way to get to know Coyoacán through its food and culture. Highly recommend!
A lovely (and filling) afternoon! Our guide, Thelma, was incredible. Knowledgeable and personable. Highly recommend!
An amazing and delicious tour! Since I was the only person on the tour, it truly felt like I was just hanging out with a local friend showing me around Coyoacán and taking me to all the best spots to eat and drink. Thelma was so informative, fun, and easy to talk to. It was such a fantastic way to get to know the city—I loved every single bite and sip! Highly recommend booking this!
Josie did a wonderful job showing us around Coyocán! Truly great experience with great food. Over 3.5 hours we saw not just food but also many local sites. Highly recommend.
We had such a great time with Thelma! She was very knowledgeable about all the places we visited and so friendly and personable. Each stop was so much fun and the food was great! The Coyoacan area is a wonderful neighborhood as well. We would recommend 1000%!!
Wonderful food tour of Coyoacan, guided by Telma. I've been on a dozen food tours in different cities, and this ties for the best. Food was delicious, interesting, and plentiful, and our guide Telma was friendly, helpful, and charming. Overall great tour!
We had the absolute best time on the Coyoacán Food Tour! Our host, Jimena, was fantastic—she expertly navigated us through the bustling market and every single food stop. Honestly, there wasn’t a bad bite to be had. It was the perfect blend of local history, culture, and the unique flavors that make Coyoacán’s cuisine so special. Highly recommend!
We had such an amazing time. I highly recommend! Jimena was an excellent tour guide, so knowledgeable and friendly; not just about the food but the history and culture of her neighborhood. We had a great time, a trip highlight. Gracias Jimena!
Our guide, Thelma, was not only knowledgeable about the local foods but she provided a lot of history about the culture of Coyoacan. The places Thelma took us to were unique and each place was excellent! Highly recommend this tour. You will not be disappointed. Time well spent!
We had such a blast with our guide Thelma! She brought us to places we would never have gone to on our own. Can’t even count how many different foods we had over the course of the tour, which were all so varied and delicious. We loved Thelma’s energy and hospitality- we had so much fun talking to her and asking her about life in the city. Perfect balance of culture and great food!
The tour guide, Thelma, was outstanding! Every food experience was off the charts, DELICIOUS! I couldn’t believe how much was included for the price!
it was a wonderful afternoon. Everything was delicious and Thelma, our guide, was delightful. I would recommend it.
This was absolutely amazing. My tour guide Jim was so cool and took me to do all the fun things and I was so happy she shared her amazing story and neighborhood with me. The food was great! She took me to some amazing local spots and everything was just perfect!!!
What an amazing day in Coyoacán with Jossie! Wish I could give 100 stars. This food tour was phenomenal and I have done many around the world. We ate in the Mercado, in small fondas, in restaurants, at food stands and more. We tried so many dishes from the humble freshly made tortilla to Oaxacan tlayudas, sopes, tacos, quesadillas and tostadas and there were drinks and sweets too!!!! Jossie gave us a lot of background and history and clearly loves her hometown, Coyoacán and was happy to share it with us. She was attentive, sweet and a lot of fun to spend the day with. The food was great and Jossie was a superstar guide.
This tour is fantastic and you should take it. Jossie was our guide and she was better than amazing. I’ve taken 20+ food tours around the world and I think I’ve only had 2 other guides who were as great as she was. Not only did Jossie take us to a great set of pre-set stops, she also went out of her way to show us extra things and tell us a lot about Coyoacán history and current culture. She is from the area and it shows. The design of the tour itself was also great. The foods we tried were super delicious and the tour really sets you up to have a great time - especially eating but not only that - in Coyoacán and Mexico City overall. Just look at my photos to get a flavor of it (sorry, pun intended). If you want a fun and delicious tour on which you can also learn about this area and Mexico City overall, book this.

Coyoácan is a very interesting bohemian spot in the city. The tour was very tasty, and there was quite a variety of food - including delicious churros for dessert, and a very good mesquite cocktail - as well as a very good quantity. Thelma is so sweet and went above and beyond by helping me get to the Frida Kahlo Casa Azul house, which was the next stop on my itinerary. I have found every tour I've taken with Sabores to be excellent.
What a wonderful way to learn more about the foodways of Mexico! Our guide, Thelma U., cheerfully walked us through the various restaurants and market stalls in Coyoacon providing a sense of the variety of food and history of the community. We enjoyed so many flavors over the 3 hours together, from agua frescas to huitlacoche quesadias. Thelma even stopped at a small tortilla stand just to share with us a treat she enjoyed as a little girl growing up (fresh tortilla with a dash of salt). It was a sunny day in Mexico City, and the tour was long enough to get a bit of a sunburn, so word to the wise if you are sensitive: Wear a hat and sunscreen!
This tour organized by Sabores is a highlight of our Mexico trip. We got a real feel for the food and culture of this vibrant neighborhood. Thanks to our guide, Thelma.
Thelma was the best guide ever. She was full of energy, attentive, hilarious, knowledgeable and incredible. I have done tours all over the world from Norway to Argentina, and am travelling from Singapore - this is one of, if not the best tour I’ve done. 100000% reccomend. An absolute must do!! You will feel so comfortable with her and see Mexico City truly.
We had the best time with Thelma and everything was delicious 🫶🏽
Brilliant experience with a fabulous guide, Josette, the food was great and varied and she was great at navigating us around the markets and providing such a really wonderful experience. We would recommend it to anyone who enjoys food and good company.
Great day. Enjoyed walking Coyoacan and trying so many various Mexican foods. Everything was tasty. Thelma was fantastic and shared food knowledge, historical information, and happily snapped photos. Highly recommend!
Jimena, our expert local guide was lively, friendly and knowledgeable about the history of Coyoacan (where she grew up and still lives) as well as the culinary offerings of the area. Everything we tasted was “best of”! Standouts: the quesadilla market stand (squash blossom and the chicken tinga both with cheese), the Chocolate Mexicano, and the Tlayudas.
We really enjoyed our food tour with Jimena and Dalma! The food was excellent and plentiful, Jimena was knowledgeable and enthusiastic, and the town is charming. Dalma will be a great leader when she is done with training! Overall would definitely recommend! We thought it was excellent value for the price!
A group of 6 of us had a private walking food tour of Coyoacan with Jimena, and it was absolutely wonderful! The neighborhood itself is gorgeous, steeped in history and unique culture and, of course, filled with amazing food. Jimena, who was born and raised there, gave us a true insider's perspective as she guided us through the streets, markets and landmarks. She was a fantastic host - friendly, engaging, funny and knowledgeable. I would recommend this tour to anybody, and would be sure to tell them to come hungry, and be ready for a truly memorable and fulfilling experience!
We had a great time with Josie over 3 and 1/2 hours of a lot of food and drink. Josie was very knowledgeable and took us to spots only a local would know. Great, delicious food and we were so stuffed, that we only ate a portion of the food served at the last 3 stops. We really loved the handout which gave us the names, addresses and food/drink of the stops on the tour (along with a list of other recommended restaurants in the area). The tour was well worth it.
The most expensive food tour we've ever done, and by far the best. Jimena was totally over prepared and over qualified for this. She knew every vendor and employee by name, guided us quickly and surely through the Sunday market crowds, and was totally articulate and knew not just about the cuisine but also the history surrounding Mexico City and Coyoacan. We ate amazing things, and we've been all over Mexico - the best Tlayuda ever (better than those we've had in Oaxaca), great stories, and incredible grace. See if you can find a promo code on the web, then book it. Very well done!
Just finished the food tour with Jimena, our most delightful guide. We had no expectation for the tour but it turned out to be one of the highlights I have had in Mexico City. We had fun, were entertained, and well-fed. We were so happy to have had the chance to enjoy the lovely varieties of foods and markets. Jimena was so knowledgeable and very delightful. Thank you so much. 5/5 recommendation.
This was a highlight of my trip to Mexico City. Coyoacán is a very bright and active neighborhood and getting to experience it with our guide Jossie made me feel like I really saw and lived the experience of the neighborhood. We ate and drank and immense amount and I couldn’t eat any more by the end. Our guide shared the history of Mexico, of Coyoacán, and of the food we were enjoying as we visited markets, food stalls, small restaurants, and even a trendy bar. My travel companions were a lot of fun, and I was among other solo travelers which was a great experience for socializing and friendship. What a great day, I’m so glad I did this tour.
I spent a fascinating afternoon with my guide Jimena H. Who shared her local and national knowledge. So proud and passionate about an area she grew up in and loves. The food and drinks were amazing and diverse, and most importantly delicious. A highlight of my brief trip to the City and well worth doing if you have time.
Fabulous! Jimenez was very passionate, knowledgeable and kind. She explained everything about the various and delicious food items and drinks we experienced during the afternoon. Jimenez took my nut allergy very seriously and ensured all foods I ate were safe. That means a lot especially as I do not speak Spanish. I highly recommend Sabores Mexican Food Tours!
Wonderful experience with a really personable, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic guide (Jimena)! I would definitely recommend this tour as a way of getting to know a very unique neighborhood in Mexico City while enjoying some really unique and yummy foods!
Great tour of Coyoacán with Jossie! She was knowledgeable and a pleasure to spend an afternoon with. Good perspective of food in this neighborhood as well as restaurants. We definitely would not have found these spots on our own. Highly recommended.
Josie was my guide for the coyoacan food tour from Sabores Mexico and she was amazing! I was the only one in this tour and felt completely relaxed and enjoyed Josie’s company. She explained all the different foods we tried really well and I truly learnt a lot about Mexican food and culture. I also loved the neighborhood of Coyoacan, such a contrast to the historical center. Highly recommend this tour if you’re in Mexico City and you leave feeling totally satisfied and stuffed. Thank you Josie!!
We had a great time with Jimena our tour guide. She grew up in the area and took us to a number of places we would have never found. I appreciated the thoughtfulness and variety, from food stalls to cafes to trendy bars, the stops were off the beaten path and beyond the typical tourist traps. It gave us a great look at Coyoacan and we wished we would have done it sooner in our trip!
just now New I highly recommend Sabores Mexico Food Tours. We had a brilliant day yesterday, having booked a tour in Coyoacan with our guide, Jimena, a warm and smart person raised and living in Coyoacan. Jimena met us promptly at a really cool coffee shop, El Beneficio de la Duda, …charming and characteristic with great coffee and pastries. We then explored the surrounding barrio, starting with several stops within Mercado de Coyoacan. The market is an explosion of color, aromas and texture. The food was off the charts, and I am confident we would not have stumbled onto such a rich experience without Jimena’s insight and guidance. We booked the “7 Lugares” option, but Jimena seemed to add in extra stops based on our reactions and interests. Truly I can’t say enough, certainly about the introduction to authentic Mexican cuisine but more generally about the rich culture and history of this chic district within CDMX. Brilliant!
We had a wonderful time across Coyoacan learning a lot about the marketplaces as well as many traditional Mexican dishes. Our food guide Kiomi Puente was so fun to be with and had so much knowledge about the food and the history of Coyoacan. Our group size was just the 4 of us. We would definitely recommend!
The tour was excellent. Got a great feel for what makes coyoacan a destination of its own. Every stop from the tlayudas, to the quesadilla, and particularly the tostadas were phenomenal ( not to say any less of the agua fresca and other stops). And what made it even better was having such a ln awesome and involved guide in Jimena; she made the whole experience go up a notch. Highly recommended
Jimena was absolutely wonderful! She’s incredibly knowledgeable and made the entire tour engaging and fun. Every stop she chose was delicious and thoughtfully selected. I highly, highly recommend both this tour and Jimena as a guide — she made the experience unforgettable!
I did 3 food tours while visiting Mexico City and this one had by far the best food. My guide Jimena was interesting and knowledgeable about the neighborhood, had great advice on the remainder of my trip, and ensured I was very full and happy at the end of the tour. I highly recommend it! Especially if you plan on visiting the Frida Museum in the same neighborhood.
This was my first time visiting Coyoacán. Kiomi was an excellent host, sharing her culinary knowledge as well as the history of the area. If there is one thing I can't emphasize enough, it's to skip breakfast and come to this tour starving. You will not leave hungry; it is such a great value for the price. All of the food and beverages we sampled were delicious, and I was provided with a pamphlet with all of the names and addresses of each stop (plus some additional recommendations) so I can find them again the next time I am in CDMX. This trip is perfect for both foodies and just open-minded hungry people.
Such a wonderful food tour of Coyoacán! We absolutely loved our guide Jimena, she was both knowledgeable and fun! We tried markets and food stands that as tourists we never would have found. Had a taste of many dishes - the quesadilla and tostada were favorites! Learned a lot about the culture and was also a good walking tour of the neighborhood. I was easily accommodated as a pescatarian. No need for dinner afterwards! And bellies felt fine the next day :)
The food was incredible. Super fun recipes, great locations where you can sit down with the locals. We had 7 stops, trying drinks, savoury and sweet dishes. Our guide Kiomi was great! She took the time to explain the history of the neighborhood, on top of what we were eating. I highly recommend it!
