Planning a guys' trip in Mexico City
Taco lunches, art-deco neighborhoods, pyramid day trips that change the scale of things. For a group, weigh a block of hotel rooms against one whole-home rental: the house is usually better value per person and keeps everyone together, while a hotel is simplest for a short stay. Expedia shows both for Mexico City.
Mexico City after dark
Roma Norte and Condesa carry the mezcal crowd, with Licoreria Limantour and Hanky Panky behind an unmarked door, and they fill closer to midnight than to ten. Plaza Garibaldi and Salon Tenampa put mariachis on the floor for a per-song fee. Old Centro cantinas such as La Opera, with its ceiling bullet hole, close early. Most bars call last orders around two or three.
What things cost in Mexico City
A comida corrida of soup, main and agua fresca runs roughly 90 to 150 pesos in Roma or Centro. Tacos al pastor sit around 20 to 30 pesos each, so five plus a beer is a cheap dinner. The Metro is five pesos a ride with no day-pass equivalent on offer. Antropologia is 210 pesos for foreigners. Short Uber hops across Condesa rarely pass 90 pesos.
What's actually worth your time in Mexico City
The Templo Mayor excavation beside the Zocalo earns its ticket because you walk the Mexica city Cortes buried under the cathedral. Teotihuacan, about ninety minutes northeast from Terminal Norte, deserves a whole morning before the sun reaches the Pyramid of the Sun. Castillo de Chapultepec repays the climb for Juan O Gorman's murals. The Angel de la Independencia on Reforma is a traffic-island photo stop.
What to eat in Mexico City
Al pastor is this city's proof of Lebanese migration: El Vilsito in Narvarte is a working auto shop by day and a trompo-lit taqueria after ten at night. Tostadas at the Coyoacan market counter, tlacoyos off comals in Roma, and quesadillas that arrive with no cheese unless you say con queso. Barbacoa is a Sunday morning ritual, and El Moro fries churros past midnight.
Mexico City with kids, realistically
Bosque de Chapultepec absorbs an entire day: the zoo costs nothing, Papalote Museo del Nino is built for touching, and the lake rents pedal boats. Xochimilco trajineras suit ages five and up, being flat-bottomed boats with no railings and food canoes pulling alongside. Metro stairs and crowding punish strollers, so a carrier travels better here. At 2,240 metres, small children tire far earlier than parents expect.

How much space do we need?
Budget two guests per bedroom plus enough bathrooms; a group of 6 fits a 3-bedroom home. Check the listing’s guest cap and bed setup.
