Review of Mexico City’s Lucha Libre night with tacos, beer, mezcal, arena tickets, guides, tips, value, and practical booking advice.

“I went on this tour with my wife and two teenage sons. We had a great time. We met and had tacos and mescal beforehand and ended up being at the Lucha Libre match for only about 45 minutes to an hour. But, that ended up being perfect, in my opinion. That said, if you want to go to the entire match, this tour probably isn't for you.”

Review of Mexico City’s Lucha Libre and mezcal tour, with Arena México tickets, a former wrestler guide, masks, walking tips, and family advice.

“A really fun experience! Mexcal tasting was fun - complete with guacamole and crickets. Our guide, Arturo, is a former wrestler himself and shared with us some of the history and rituals of Luche Libre. Event itself was a blast and Arturo did not leave his group until every person was in a cab or accounted for. Highly recommend”

Review of Oaxaca’s Tule, Mitla, Hierve el Agua and mezcal tour, with practical advice on timing, value, food, transport and what to expect.

“This tour was so fun. We had an amazing guide in Ede and she was so knowledgeable and fun. This tour is listed as a whole day tour but trust me, it is not tiring at all. You will be visiting El Tule and Mitla first, then get to do a nice dip in the pools at Hierva. So you get to cool off. Then you will be taken to the most amazing lunch buffet (wishing I had more as I am writing this review lol) and then to a nice local artisanal place and finally, ending the day with the well thought out trip to a mezcal distillery place…”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 413 reviews · 8 hours (approx.)

Review of Oaxaca’s Hierve el Agua and mezcal tour, with hiking, mineral pools, distillery tasting, transport tips, and honest drawbacks.

“Great tour, with very knowledgeable guides. The hike was easy—we didn’t hire a local guide for that part so walked on our own. The pools looked nice and refreshing, but the weather was a bit too cold for us to fully swim so we just dipped our feet in after the hike. Others in our tour group were braver and went for a dip though. The mezcal tasting was generous—we had 10-14 samples and learned a lot about the distillation process along the way.”

Everything about the day was special. Thanks again Karen.”

Review of Oaxaca’s full-day Mitla, Teotitlán, mezcal, Hierve el Agua, and Tule tour, with practical tips, costs, timing, and drawbacks.

“This is a good tour to get out of the city and see some of the environment. It is a mix of activities which I enjoyed, and we did not stay at any one too long. I found the Mezcal distillery a bit disappointing as it was a big tour bus stop. Fr a small group Viator could find something more authentic. The tour guide was fine, and had a good command of English as well, but ran out of steam after the Mitla stop, and did not have much to say after that. As a tour guide myself, I think he could have provided us with more information about…”
