The Best Mexico City Street Food Tour for You
The best Mexico City street food tour for you: tacos on foot, markets, a bike, a night out, vegan food or a weekday breakfast walk, side by side.
There is no single best Mexico City street food tour; there is a best one for what you want to eat and how you want to move. For most first-time visitors it is Sherpa Food Tours’ Taco Tour in Roma Norte: two and a half hours on foot from Colima 76, regional and modern tacos, then mezcal and beer, all included, from $79 (checked November 2026). That price is the Taco Tour option of Mexico City: 8+ Dishes & Local Gems with Sherpa Food Tour; its 3.5-hour 10+ Tastings & Local Gems option is $99 (checked November 2026).
Why it is the default: it is short, it stays in one walkable neighbourhood, it has start times through the day (11:00, 16:30 and 18:00 on 12 November 2026), and it offers a vegetarian menu. It is rated 4.9 from 142 reviews on GetYourGuide, and Sherpa’s listing of the same tour on Viator is rated 5.0 from 1,367 reviews (checked November 2026). It is not for vegans.

Three questions that decide it
Tacos, or Mexican food in general? A taco tour eats tacos: the Sherpa Taco Tour, or ProvechoTacoTours' Condesa Street Tacos. For a wider spread of dishes, take a longer walk: Sherpa’s 3.5-hour option, or Sabores Mexico Food Tours' Authentic Downtown Food Tour, five hours through the San Juan Market, a cantina, a street food stall and traditional restaurants, from $115 (checked November 2026).
Roma and Condesa, or the old centre? Roma Norte and Condesa are where the taco walks and the bike tours run. The Centro Historico has the markets and the old-town walks, such as Secret Food Tours' Old Town Food Tour of 7 Tastings & Secret Dish: tacos, chilaquiles, enchiladas in mole and a bakery in three hours, from $88 (checked November 2026).
Walk, ride or be driven? On foot is the default. A bike covers two neighbourhoods (bike tours). The Sabores Mexico Food Tours night tour drives you between stops (night tours).
