Travel back in time with every sip.

This cultural walking tour, takes you on a sensory journey through Mexico's pre-Hispanic roots — one drink at a time.

We begin at a traditional pulquería, where you’ll learn about pulque, the sacred “drink of the gods”, once used in rituals and sacred ceremonies. You’ll get to taste several flavors, and maybe even learn a few dance steps while you're at it!

Then, we’ll walk through Roma’s artistic streets, stopping to enjoy a corn-based snack, honoring the most important crop in Mesoamerican civilizations.

Next, we'll head to a cozy and creative spot, where you'll try a vibrant cocktail inspired by the Mexican flag, we'll share games, legends, and fun activities that will connect you with ancient Mexico, and other travelers.

For those who want to keep the night going, there's an optional stop at a hidden speakeasy-style bar, where you'll discover that even chili has its place in modern Mexican mixology.

This is a warm, cultural, and flavorful experience — perfect for curious travelers, solo adventurers, friends, and anyone looking for a local, non-touristy experience in CDMX.
