旅行者建议

出行

Uber is the best way to get around, and very cheap.

Download the app before you travel.
出行

Avoid hailing taxis on the street

Taxis are best ordered directly from a dispatcher, and uber is recommended instead of taxis.
携带物品

Bring walking shoes

Mexico City is sprawling, and exploring is usually done on-foot. Make sure to bring several different pairs of comfortable shoes.
出发前预订

Make a reservation at Pujol - not to be missed

This fine dining experience is recognized internationally. Both the tasting menu and the taco bar are equally impressive and worth the price. Highly recommend the experience.
