Description

Begin your evening directly outside the iconic Palacio de Bellas Artes. Start by tracing the history of Mexico’s most iconic drinks. Discover the ancient, milky elixir of the gods with a visit to the Pulque Museum. Sample various flavors (curados) and learn about the unique process of its creation, a tradition that predates all other Mexican spirits. Next, move into the Museum of Tequila and Mezcal (MUTEM). Gain insight into the sophisticated distillation processes and the distinct production regions that separate these two powerhouse spirits. Enjoy a curated tasting of both Tequila (the refined spirit of the lowlands) and Mezcal (the smoky, complex spirit of the highlanders). Learn how to properly taste them, distinguish their notes, and appreciate the terroir that defines each one. With the spirit of the agave running through your veins, head out to the iconic Plaza Garibaldi, the historical home of Mariachi music. Experience the vibrant, almost chaotic energy of a true Mexican night (Noche Mexicana). This is the hub where hundreds of mariachis, trios, and jarochos gather, ready to play a serenata (serenade). Find a cozy spot to enjoy the ambiance and listen to an authentic, electrifying live Mariachi performance. Feel the passion of the trumpets, violins, and guitarrón as they perform classic rancheras and traditional songs. Your guide will explain the fascinating history of Mariachi, its origins, and its profound role in Mexican identity, connecting the music, the drinks, and the setting for a truly unforgettable evening. The tour concludes here. Guests are responsible for arranging their own transportation back to their hotels, and your guide will be happy to assist you in booking a ride-share service (like Uber).
