    Step into Coyoacan, the bohemian heart of Mexico City, where cobblestone streets, colonial facades, and the scent of fresh corn invite you to slow down and savor. Your experience begins near Xicoténcatl 275, where you’ll meet your local food expert and small group. From the very first steps, you’ll feel why Coyoacan has inspired artists, writers, and musicians for generations.

    You’ll weave through colorful streets toward the local market, where the air is filled with the aroma of tostadas loaded with fresh toppings and simmering stews. Here, you might try home-style tostadas and learn how corn, beans, and chiles have fed Mexico for centuries. Outside, at a street stall, you’ll be handed a steaming cup of esquites, the beloved corn-in-a-cup snack that shows just how versatile maize can be. At each stop, your guide shares stories about ingredients, regional recipes, and how food ties together history, family, and celebration.
