Description:

Enjoy a night amid Mexico's holy trinity of entertainment: cantinas, mariachis, and lucha libre wrestling. Sip tequila at a cantina, shuffle and sway to mariachi music, and watch masked wrestlers dive, fly, writhe, and grandstand for the audience on this Mexico City tour you don't want to miss.

Your tour starts at a typical Mexican pub called a cantina. There you enjoy a couple of drinks (own expense) and get to know the rest of your group. Most importantly, though, your guide gives you a briefing of what's in store for the rest of the evening, including the basic rules of the eccentric lucha libre.

To keep the excitement of the night going, head to another cantina by the musician's square of Garibaldi, where you experience Mexican mariachi music and many other Mexican bands. Enjoy the atmosphere of the square for about an hour before heading out to the arena to support the best luchadores in the country.

Lucha libre is the second-most watched sport in Mexico, and hands down one of the most exciting things you can do while visiting Mexico City. For a truly local experience, hop on the subway to the Arena Mexico to catch the fight. You get great seats in the arena, so you can truly live the experience and see the best matches of the night.

At the end of this unreal experience, you have time to buy some souvenirs, like the mask of the best wrestler you saw in the show—so you can take some fun photos with your masks on.

After all the dancing, singing, drinking, and cheering, you're ready to go back to where it all began, your meeting point, where your guide offers suggestions for where to continue the party. If you prefer to hit the hay, you can take a cab back to your hotel with the help of your local tour guide.
