Free Walking Tour: Frida Kahlo and Coyoacán – Art, History and Hidden Gems

Explore Frida Kahlo’s world and Coyoacán’s charm on a free walking tour—colonial streets, markets and iconic art legacy await!

Led by friendly local guides, this 2 hour tour is designed for travelers who want more than sightseeing — it’s for those who want to feel the spirit of a place. You’ll walk the same streets as Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera, discover hidden corners of the neighborhood, and learn stories you won’t find in guidebooks.

• Mercado de Coyoacan – Local flavors, crafts, and a crash course in Mexican street food

• Café El Jarocho – Legendary coffee from a neighborhood institution

• Fuente de los Coyotes – The iconic heart of Coyoacán’s main plaza

• Parroquia San Juan Bautista – A stunning baroque church with centuries of history

• Casa de Hernán Cortés – Echoes of Mexico’s colonial past

• Churrería El Moro – End with a sweet local treat: hot churros and chocolate

Along the way, you’ll discover colorful streets, local legends, political history, and recommendations for everything from museums to mezcal bars.

What an amazing time!!!

I absolutely recommend for a tour.

My time with Luis on Coyoacan was a highlight of my time in Mexico City. They are dedicated to an authentic and local experience! We talked for hours and I learned so much!

I was a solo traveler and it was an incredible experience - sign up now, you won't regret it!

We really enjoyed this informative and relaxed tour with Louis seeing the Coyacan neighbourhood and learning about Frida Kahlo. Would highly recommend!

Went on the Coyoacan tour with Luis based on a recommendation from a friend who said it was the best walking tour he's ever been on and he was definitely right! The tour itself was interesting but the tour guide Luis especially explained everything with a lot of passion and kept us immersed the entire tour. The way he would story tell was so interesting and I haven't experienced a walking tour like that before.

Definitely recommend for anyone visiting

CDMX.
