Description
You don't visit Tepito alone — you enter with someone who knows it from the inside. This walking tour is guided by a local from the neighborhood who opens doors that no conventional sightseeing tour goes through: the oldest neighborhood in the area, the local art gallery, the church where Cuauhtémoc was imprisoned, and much more...
You start in Las Letras de Tepito, where the team greets you and tells you how Mexico's most famous, mysterious, and controversial neighborhood was born. From there, you'll walk from stop to stop, talking with real residents and discovering the history behind every corner: the first church in the area, the Deportivo Maracaná, the Church of St. Francis of Assisi, the old laundries, and some altars that only locals know about.
The tour includes a meal at an iconic stand — Las Migas, Tacos de la Suerte, liver and tripe tacos, or the legendary Queso-Carnes — and a complimentary drink. At the end, the team will accompany you back to the starting point or to a safe transportation location.
