It is an excellent tour with a good variety of dishes to try, combined with a great guide, Ximena rocks!
Hi! Thank you for choosing Vibe Adventures. We are glad you enjoyed your tour with Ximena and we hope to see you again soon. Take care! gratefully, Vibe Adventures’ team
I don't know how anyone can give this tour a negative review. We took the tour and thought it was fantastic. My wife is vegan, I eat meat - but the vegan tacos and vegan Pozole we had on this tour were great. If vegan food was always this good I'd never eat meat again. On top of that, our guide Eduardo is a pleasure: incredibly knowledgeable when it comes to both food and Roma Norte (where he grew up and which we explored on this tour). We would have him again when doing to Mexico City Market tour. That also was incredibly well done. Great tour, great guide...tons of fun.
Dear Frank, Thanks for choosing Vibe Adventures! We are glad you enjoy the tour with Eduardo. Indeed, there are so many interesting things to discover about Mexico City. Take care and hope to see you on one of our tours again. gratefully, Vibe Adventures’ team
Sorry to say we were not thrilled with this tour. All of the stops were Vegan, as advertised, but were focused on "fake meat" versions of Mexican traditional food instead of featuring & reveling in the Vegan options available. When discussed with our tour guide, this was not an option. Getting to the tour, we walked by people cooking fresh tortillas. During the tour, we walked by people making elote. We discussed huitlacoche, squash blossoms, and other veggies/fruits that are so wonderful in Mexico City.
Dear David, Thanks a lot for your valuable feedback. We are sorry to hear that our tour could not fully meet your expectations - we will do our best to improve our services in the future. Street food is an essential part of Mexico City's gastronomic culture and we could not miss adding some places specializing (and strictly following non-animal code in cooking) in vegan tacos and other "antojitos". Indeed, in those dishes plant substitutes of meat are used (generally based on soya, chickpeas, lentils, and setas mushrooms) but those can hardly be considered "fake meat" as the only thing they have in common with meat is just texture and presentation. On all our tours, we do our best to adjust the itinerary and inclusions to the needs and interests of travelers but due to the specifics of each tour (in this case, due to a limited number of vegan food locations in the area where the tour took place), not always it's possible. regards, gratefully, Vibe Adventures’ team
