Great addition to MX Trip

Published on Dec, 2024

Gabriel was fantastic! He took us to great spots and stopped along the way for smaller tastings and to explain the food culture very well. He even translated our tarot and palm readings we opted for! Felt very safe with him as well.

Excellent Merced and Sonora Market Tour

Published on Nov, 2024

Gabriel was amazing!!! He was a walking wealth of knowledge and made the tour so interesting. Loved every minute of it!!

A great tour.

Published on Oct, 2024

Gabriel was an engaging and thoughtful guide and we thoroughly enjoyed the tour. We enjoyed some delicious and interesting cuisine.

Family trip to the market with Gabriel was awesome!

Published on Oct, 2024

With our kids ages 9,11, and 14, my husband and I enjoyed this private trip through La Merced with Gabriel. It was incredible- the tastes, the sights, his knowledge and caring approach to everyone in my family and all the vendors, whom he knows well. We were so full by the end, and loved trying all the foods. We felt very taken care of as he provided hand sanitizer, baby wipes, bathroom breaks, and water. Gabriel is a smart young man, with stellar English, and an appreciation for the uniqueness of this market he grew up in and his family still run taco stalls. I'll be sending my friends to him as it was one of our favorite parts of CDMX!

Engaging, Well-Informed, Accommodating

Published on Jan, 2024

My partner, my parents and I had a fantastic time on this tour! Gabriel was an engaging, well-informed, and accommodating guide who made our experience so much better than it would have been without him. We had great food, heard interesting facts and stories, and traveled into parts of the market we didn’t know existed, let alone knew how to find. He was also helpful in accommodating my partner’s dietary restriction and my father’s physician limitations.
