Murals & Markets
One of Mexico City's most comprehensive hip-hop style tours of the food, flavor, flowers, and fan fare, with an unbeatable urban angle on the city's most dynamic neighborhoods.
A unique urban experience led by Remix, the renowned international street artist. Guests are invited to explore vibrant Mexico City through pop art, history, and local food. A playful adventure puts you right into the daily life of the Mexican capital, and you get access to entirely different cultural expressions and a new approach to local businesses, neighborhoods, and public markets.
Your journey begins at the iconic Central de Abastos. You can tour the vast perimeter of the site by car. That gives visitors something of any understanding of the scale and importance of this vast distribution and warehouse district. (It's the biggest public market in the Americas.) The tour then cuts through one of the busiest pasillos, the retail areas of the market, for at least a glimpse at the diversity of products, foods, and items on sale. From fresh produce to tacos and traditional Mexican sweets, it's all a part of learning a little about the dynamics of commerce and food distribution in a gigantic market.
The route continues to a century-old pulquería, and a journey back in time. Then, head to the famous Jamaica Flower Market, for a feast of traditional food, and walks through the one of the city's most important distribution points for plants, flowers, decorative works and more. From the Jamaica area, tours head to the Historic Center to take in murals in public spaces that give life to the city. The experience is topped off with a spray-painting workshop that lets participants release their own inner artist!
Past tours have included Iztacalco, Magdalena Mixhiuca, the Historic Center, Colonia Militar Marte and, of course, the Central de Abastos in Iztapalapa. RemixUno is the founder of Mexikool, a company that offers urban art tours and Mexican experiences. Mexikool has held workshops and tours for more than 2,000 people, privately and in cooperation with supporting organizations such as APAC and Peraj de México.
