4 hours guided experience around Lucha Libre in Mexico City
Hey there!
I’m Alexis Sánchez, 2009 “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.
✅ Next openings
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.

What people say
JaspreetToronto, Canadá2 weeks agoIt was a unique experience to watch the tournament in the arena. We started the experience at a taco place that was delicious. It was a group of 10 people. We had good seats with nice view of the ring. Alex was very knowledgeable about the culture, players and it was great learning from him. Highly recommend the experience!
鈴掛Adachi City, Japan2 weeks agoIt was a truly amazing experience! This was my first time seeing lucha libre, but I'd always been interested in it because my father is a Japanese professional wrestling fan and loves lucha libre. When I actually saw it, I was overwhelmed by the brilliance, power, and energy of the audience, and I was instantly captivated. It was truly an amazing experience. Although my arrival was delayed by about 30 minutes due to a flight, my host, Alexis, was so courteous and kind, and I was truly touched. I had spoken to her about my concerns before arriving in Mexico City, and she was always so kind and helpful. I am truly grateful for her kindness. Thanks to Alexis, my first stay in Mexico City was an unforgettable memory. If I visit Mexico City again, I definitely want to see lucha libre again! Thank you so much for the wonderful experience! I hope everyone will experience it too!
栗林Suginami, Japan2 weeks agoThe host was very kind. My flight was delayed, and I arrived late for our meeting time, but he explained many things to me, including the most efficient means of transportation from the airport. It was my first time seeing Lucha Libre, and it was a very exciting experience!- Marie ChristineFrance1 month agoTrès bonne expérience de la découverte de la lucha libre avec Alexis Il a su se mettre à notre faible niveau d anglais Beaucoup d explications sur le déroulement des combats N hésitez pas à faire confiance à Alexis vous passerez une excellente soirée Merci à lui pour cette super découverte
ClareChicago, IL2 months agoWe had a wonderful experience with Alexis. We were able to appreciate lucha libre so much more than if we just bought tickets to the show. Alexis explained the rules and history clearly, and his passion for the sport was obvious. 10/10 would strongly recommend this experience!
SarahNew York, NY2 months agoTake this tour! As a lifelong fan of lucha libre Alexis is so knowledgeable, hospitable and absolutely the perfect guide for this experience. He helped us understand the story of the sport and gave us some important commentary during the matches. Definitely a highlight of our time in Mexico City.

2 months agoViva Lucha Libre !!!! We absolutely had a blast with Alexis! This was not the usual meet up with your guide and walk around getting lectured tour. It was more like going to a sporting event with your REALLY avid fan friend. Alexis is very friendly and VERY knowledgeable about lucha libre. I was kind of on the fence about going originally but I am very glad I did. It was really alot if fun and Alexis made it completely stress-free. He took care of everything from the pre-meetup communication all the way through getting us back to our hotel after. Definitely recommend it!
