Alexis Sánchez is a local guide in Mexico City who organizes tours to Lucha Libre shows in CDMX for mexican wrestling.

Hey there!

I’m Alexis Sánchez2009 “Ángel Fernández” award by the Mexican Federation of Sports Writers. I am passionate about Lucha Libre. I manage a Facebook community named “Mascara contra Mascara” where we present an historical perspective for the best approach to the national Wrestling of our days.

What you'll do?

We will make a short welcome at Taquería El Caifán in the heart of Mexico’s City Historic Downtown. You will know a history sprint from Salvador Lutteroth to El Místico. This is a quick review from the first days of this sport in our country to nowdays.

Tacos and beer time!

After that we will meet in Taquería El Caifán, you’re going to taste a couple of Tacos al Pastor before depart to the Arena.

There you’re going to get a free national beer (or a non alcoholic drink) and you’re going to get a free mexican wrestler mask as a souvenir. This is the time when all the history, context, rules and the line-up of matches for the night is reviewed.

Lucha Libre Time!

Finally we are going to get Metrobus to the Arena Mexico (fridays and sundays) or Arena Coliseo (saturdays) to presence a Lucha Libre show in great seats in the ringside zone.

Live the local experience. This is how mexican fans get to the Arena. The cost of the trip is on me.

    Alexis was available and helpful. I had 2 tours overlap, and was late for luche libre, and Alexis waited for us to leave for the stadium.
    He answered all my questions during the performance gave us masks.

    The morning of the experience, myself and my partner weren’t feeling well and didn’t think we’d be able to attend. We were incredibly grateful for Alexis who patiently offered flexibility to allow us to meet outside the stadium for just the show and we were so glad we did, it was EPIC. Worth it!

    We had the best time with Alexis!! From start to finish he created a fun and educational experience. His deep knowledge of luche libre made it so fun to learn, and his commitment to making our experience enjoyable left us talking about it for the rest of the night. We’d recommend ANYONE do this (and we’d do it again!), luche libre fan or not- you’re in great hands with Alexis!

    Alexis is a great host. He has a passion for lucha Libre that he shares with you over tacos and beer before the performance.
    The entire experience is well organized. We arrived at our seats about 15 minutes before the show. Afterwards, he makes sure everyone has a ride or knows how to get back to where they need to be.

    We had a great time at this Lucha Libre experience with Alexis. The meeting point was easy to find, as was Alexis, since he was wearing a Lucha Libre mask.
    While anyone can buy tickets to these events, what made this experience great was that Alexis explained the history of Lucha Libre and answered our questions prior to the event as we downed quesadillas and tacos. Without this aspect, I wouldn't have enjoyed the event nearly as much. This is definitely a unique, must-do experience in CDMX.

    This was so much fun. Alexis met us at Taqueria El Caifan in a lucha libre mask which was so fun and unique, we were able to spot him right away. We ate some tacos and got aqua fresas and Alexis explained in detail the history of lucha libre. It was really interesting and being able to see it live with a great group of people made the experience that much more fun! Alexis was very informative and made sure we were safe and had a great time. Getting Lucha Libre masks were a big plus! Thanks for the a fantastic time, Alexis!

    This was a lot of fun and a great introduction into the exciting world of Lucha Libre with our wonderful guide Alexis. My only tip if you go is to think about how you get to the meetup location (the taqueria) since traffic can be quite crazy at this time of day. However the metro (and metro bus) are great alternatives. Really appreciated the taco and quesadilla as well. ¡Muchísimas gracias, Alexis!

    Alexis is a wonderful tour guide, he shares his passion in an endearing and engaging manner. The seats we had were unreal and even better than the seats that the press had behind us!

    Alexis is a true fan of lucha libre and he did a wonderful job of explaining the history and lore of the sport. His enthusiasm was so infectious…we cheered and booed and clapped and shouted our way through 2 hours of matches. I would do this again for sure. Totally recommend!

    Alex is the absolute best. From the tasty food at the meet up spot to the historical immersion into the world of Lucha Libre, Alex did an amazing job!! I loved how he thoroughly explained the history of the arena, lucha libre itself and gave context into the match we were going to see. The group size was perfect as well. I would highly recommend Alex and i would easily pay for this experience again. Well done Alex. This tour was the highlight of my CDMX trip.
