Free Day in Mexico City
Mexico City, Mexico
About This Activity
Slow down and let Mexico City come to you. Browse the stalls of Mercado de Medellín, take a coffee at a Roma Norte rooftop café, or pop into a Polanco gallery on a whim. Street tacos al pastor from a sidewalk stand cost under $1 each. This city rewards wanderers who leave the itinerary behind.
