Fantastic Trip into Tepito with a Local!

5.00Spending 3 hours in Tepito with Lili, who grew up there, was the highlight of my trip to Mexico. She is an amazing guide, fluent in English, who took me everywhere in this historic and infamous "barrio" which has existed since before the conquistadores came. This is the real Mexico City - not a tourist trap. You will see the famous market, the famous boxing gym that spawned champion boxers, the Sainte Muerte altar and you will eat the most delicious street food inside Tepito. Unforgettable and highly recommended.

5.00This experience is very much worth it. Lili was the best tour guide she explains everything in detail and takes her time. Would definitely recommend!
Tepito is worth a visit if you want to see more than just the huge market.

5.00I had a very interesting, great day with Nelly in Tepito! There is much more to see than just the market! She showed me where and how people live there, which I was very interested in. I also learned how Tepito has evolved.

5.00To be able to be welcomed into the heart of Tepito with Nelly was a great experience and one I’ll never forget. Don’t let the sensationalist press and absurd influencer videos about this neighborhood form your opinion. If you’re in Mexico City, take this tour and experience Tepito for yourself
Tepito immediately back

5.00Nelly was my personal guide for the Tepito Tour. She was local knowledgeable (originally from Tepito) and very friendly and dedicated. She told me a lot about the people and her life there and showed me a lot.
A tour to learn more about Tepito

5.00It was a great tour. Not only did I get to see all the Tepito areas that were difficult to reach on my own, but I also got to know its history and culture in depth. Tepito is not a dangerous area for foot traffic, and I was asked how I would deal with Tepito in the presence of people who live there and those who do. Vague fears dissipated by the end of the tour.
Exceptional experience highly reccomend to anyone trying to get a deeper sense of CDMX

5.00Exceptional experience with a knowledgeable guide to get to know an important part of CDMX. I’ve taken a lot of tours during my stay in the city and this was one of my favorite. Nelly made sure we were completely safe and knew the local etiquette to remain respectful. She shared in depth history of Tepito and shared her stories. The food was delicious and I felt like I got a deeper knowledge of the city by experiencing this neighborhood. Highly reccomend for any tourist trying to get a better sense of the city beyond the Roma/Condesa/Centro circuit.
Great food, amazing guide, and wonderful neighborhood

5.00I went on this tour in Tepito with my local guide Gaby and had a blast! The trip lasted a few hours and I ate amazing food, learned a ton about this neighborhood, and I felt safe the entire time. Everywhere we went someone stopped Gaby to say hi and wish her well; everyone was very nice and I felt at home. If you’re considering taking this tour then definitely give it a try! You won’t regret it, it’s a nice change of pace from the hustle and bustle of the city center. Thanks again for the tour Gaby, I loved it!
Just do it

5.00Don't let the rest of the internet freak you out -- we felt totally safe the whole time. Lili is a great guide and a genuinely friendly person, plus she helped us buy a couple of things in the market. It was a fun and interesting tour, and there's no way you could do this on your own.
Incredible
