We had a wonderful experience touring Mexico City with Jimena! My dad and I did a father/daughter trip over Labor Day weekend and had so much fun trying new flavors and meeting new people. The group was so sweet and Jimena made sure that everyone had a fun and unique experience. I’d highly recommend booking with her and can’t wait to come back!

It was amazing Mariana first of all was incredibly friendly and her energy is infectious. Not only was she friendly but she was knowledgeable in everything and took the time to explain not just the food but the history behind it as well as the history of the neighborhood. I would love to do it again.
