While filming our video for Mexico city, we ran into @luisitocomunica! With tens of millions of followers on YouTube and Instagram, it’s safe to say this guy is a phenomenon in the Spanish/Latin American vlog sphere.
Luisito was so cool, too. When we recognized him, he was excited to film this short collaboration with us. Que buena onda! We took his advice and tried tacos de canasta “basket tacos”, as you’ll see in the video.
Mexico City is truly a hidden gem in the global travel scene. Before visiting here, I was told that it’s dangerous. But after visiting here and exploring many corners of the city, and trying tons of authentic food from CDMX, I feel it’s my duty to share the message that CDMX is amazing!
The fifth most populated city in the world, Mexico City feels and looks like New York city in 1915. It’s got a bustling but classical feel to it, thanks to the sprawling colonial Spanish architecture in the central historic district.
It’s also the taco capital of the world 😉 In this video I ate ELEVEN tacos throughout the day. Damn, I love the tacos here.

- Dude this looks way more fun than spending hundreds a day and staying at chain hotels hanging with other tourists
- I suggested you to visit Mexico City a few weeks back and here you are filming there, way surpassing my expectation. I love your works. Keep it up pal!
- My favorite video. Good food, good laughs and love the people of Mexico! Best thing though is seeing how genuinely happy you are. I think it’s Parv’s simple joy for life that adds to your obvious joy. You two have good aura which makes everyone around you want to be a part of what you are doing.
- Amo, amo Ciudad de Mexico!!!!!!! Excelente video chicos!!!!
- Luisillo el Rey palomo con la colaboración espontánea, muy grande! Se les apoya muchachos.
- Hey, enjoying your vlog and lots of local stuff! There are many flies and wasps that they throw in for free in the market…haha! Who doesn’t luv y’all. Your Spanish is so doped and impressive. Good job! Lastly, the Tacos you rated 11 which must be really goo! 🌮
- I am from México, i Watched your insta story with lusito, a couple weeks ago and i have been watching all your videos, wish you luck mate!
- Thanks buddy, you guys are wonderful and thanks again for taking us on a $20/day trips. Keep them coming!!!
- Waiting for the algo to put you back on the map. My only concern is seeing how good your videos are, they could easily get 1M views but then you’d get rich and the $20 travel would become a thing of the past lol
- Hey kevin. That was a really beautiful episode man. Reminds me of my time in Mexico city. You always get so much out of your trips. It makes me want to go back. Really love your stuff keep it up. And if you ever want to come to Taiwan I’ll show you a good time
