Ghosts and Secrets to Dia de Muertos Downtown Tour
Overview
Walk through Mexico City as it blooms with marigolds and memory.
This is not just a Day of the Dead tour — it’s a journey through stories, rituals, and the echoes of the underworld.
From the grand altars of the Zócalo to the hidden corners of the old city, you’ll explore how Mexicans have danced with death for centuries — with humor, beauty, and defiance.
Led by an actor and storyteller, Gossip with the Dead blends theatre, history, and sociology to reveal how the living keep company with the dead — and how every offering tells a story about who we are.
