And the cave restaurant referenced earlier is La Gruta.

I did manage to find one, but at least you understand what I’m talking about. Will look up the Frida Kahlo bike tour and will definitely hit up the cave restaurant

Great, more gimmicks!

This is OP - I am fascinated by this poster!

I am really curious whether it is Chicken Bus or Marriott Gold poster from the thread a year or two ago. That was an absolute whackadoodle thread that I think started with a question about Guatemala and descended into this fight between two people that we dubbed chicken bus and marriot gold who were fighting about who was better traveled and more cultured. There were a lot of aspersions cast on people who did peace corp, if I recall. It was so insane I was actually a little sad it ended.

What on earth are you talking about?!

Hilarious. My husband, I, and two friends are in our 50s and we did all these things on our last trip to Mexico City. We also did museums and ruins. I can assure you we are seasoned "cultured" travelers. There are more to cities than museums and cathederals.

What a bizarre response. Because everyone does Lucha Libre, Mexican food tours, and hot air ballooning at home? What?

The point is that travel should be about learning and experiencing new cultures, not doing a bunch of stupid activities for Instagram. OP sounds pathetic.

This person is insufferable. Just stop. There is absolutely nothing wrong with catering to teen taste.

Yes there is. Just take them to the mall instead. They will get absolutely nothing out of Mexico if this is the trip you plan. Why even bother?

NP. You’re an uncultured buffoon, and I say that as someone who has unquestionably spent a lot more time in Mexico City than you have.

Also, learn to spell “lucha libre” correctly. It’s not “lucia.” 🙄
