About your trip

Experience the epic Mexican Lucha Libre and discover local watering holes:


Pulque! Mezcal! Mariachis! Lucha Libre!

What else can you ask to have an epic night out in Mexico City?


This experience takes you to Garibaldi Square, home to Mexico’s World-Famous Mariachi bands and an incredible place where you will visit a historically important Cantina as well as a very traditional Pulqueria.


You will visit the Museum of Tequila and Mezcal, where you will learn about their history as well as the process by which Mezcal and Tequila are distilled. But it does not end there! You will learn how Mezcal and Tequila are supposed to be savoured, so you can drink like a true local.


After your lesson on how to sip Mexican spirits, we’ll visit a legendary Cantina, where you’ll have a drink of your choice and will be serenated by a Jarocho quartet while you sip a mezcal cocktail. Once we are done, take the subway to Arena Mexico where you’ll attend a Lucha Libre match. Your tickets are chosen for you to sit among locals and away from the mostly-touristy rows in the arena. Before the match, you can choose your Luchador mask so you can rock it during the match.

Taste the drink of the Gods: Pulque

Enjoy the wonderful spectacle that is Lucha Libre

Once you finish your pulque, we'll ride the subway to Arena Mexico. You will choose your mask and for about 3 hours, you will yell, laugh and cheer your favourite Luchador. Please note drinks inside Arena Mexico are not included on the tour.

After the show, you'll choose how to go back to your hotel.
We highly recommend a ride-sharing app, since using public transport at the time of night is very tight (the subway closes at 00:00)
