There's a version of Monterrey that doesn't appear in any travel guide. It's loud, chaotic, authentic and completely real.
We'll take you walking through the neighborhoods where people actually eat, shop and live. You'll explore a local market that will awaken all your senses at once. You'll taste tacos that locals in Monterrey have been eating for generations. You'll discover corners of the city that most visitors never get to see.
Every stop has a story. Every bite has an origin. And there's at least one surprise along the way that will make your camera very happy.
This is not a tour designed for tourists. It's an authentic walk, with real food, through a city that has much more to tell than what meets the eye.
Ready to discover the Monterrey that locals don't usually share?
(Tour conducted in Spanish. Bilingual guides available for English support.)
We recommend: comfortable and light clothing, sneakers, sunscreen and a hat. The tour takes place outdoors.
