Hi everyone..
I just returned from a five week trip to Mexico...the main purpose of my trip was to attend Spanish school in Cuernavaca but I also found time to visit some great places in both Cuernavaca and also in Mexico City (DF)...in fact I was in Mexico City the night of the earthquake and it was not too much fun as I had never before experienced an earthquake...actually
Mexico City received very little damage but there were a lot of frightened people who remembered the earthquake of 1985 which killed somewhere between 15-20,000 people in Mexico City.
I arrived in Mexico City on a thursday, late morning, via AeroMexico. I almost always fly this airline as their service is VASTLY superior to American Airlines and these are the two main choices between my city (DFW) and Mexico City. Rumor also has it that American Airlines is on the verge of bankruptcy and I don't want any hassles with an American ticket if this rumor were to become reality. My Spanish classes began on monday morning in Cuernavaca so I had a few days in DF to enjoy the guys. I don't spend too much time at the tourist places because I have been there many many times and have seen most of the tourist things in the past. I have Mexican friends in DF but when I want to prowl around late at night and not worry about coming and going I like to stay in a hotel. If you are not too particular about where you stay I would suggest Hotel Principal in the Centro area of Mexico City. This is NOT a fancy hotel. It is neat, clean and safe. This area of town is not the safest but the hotel is safe. I have stayed there many times and never had any problems. In fact, it was listed in both of Eduardo David's "Gay Mexico: The Men of Mexico" books as a gay location. This hotel is NOT a gay hotel and I have never witnessed any gay activity there....but there is never any problem bringing a guy to your room but I make a point to pay for two people when I check in....free local calls, TV (no cable), on weekends ask for a room in the back as there is a nearby bar that is very (extremely loud) and makes sleeping almost impossible in the rooms in the front. This hotel is about $17.50 nightly, each room has private bath with shower and is located on Bolivar about three blocks from Bellas Artes and the Latin American Tower, near the Zocolo and three blocks from the Allende Metro Stop. There is also a very good Spanish (Castillian) restaurant on Calle de Uraguay only three blocks away called Centro Castellano...very good food, especially the paella...in the evenings ask for the Menu de Hoy...which will be a four or five course meal for about $9.00.
I know parts of the city fairly well. Mexico City is very large but the Metro (subway) there is early to navigate and the stations are all marked by both symbols and written signs depicting the name of each station. Each route is a color with the Orange route my favorite. I am a person who likes to explore but in sexual matters I also like to explore until I find places that I enjoy and have success and I will frequent these places until I either grow bored or new places open so I have been visiting the same places in Mexico City for a number of years now.
The places I visited for sex in Mexico City on this trip were Tom's Leather Bar on Insurgentes Sur, Viena Bar very near Bellas Artes and Garibaldi Plaza, LaCasita (both locations), Orange Metro Line and Baños Mina. Sex is readily available in all these places. If I could only visit one place I would visit LaCasita on Viaducto Miguel Aleman. . This is without question my favorite sex place in Mexico City or anyplace else that I have visited in the country. There are two LaCasita locations and in my opinion the one on Viaducto Miguel Aleman is far superior to the one located on Insurgentes Sur. The physical location on Insurgentes is better. It is closer to the metro stop and to other gay locations, the building itself is much larger but this is a problem. The location on Miguel Aleman is arranged in a manner which will allow a cruiser to keep tract of the guys in which he is interested. There are three levels and only one set of stairs so it is fairly early to learn the lay-out and become familiar with the place. The location on Insurgentes Sur is very large and there are many routes between the different rooms so it is very difficult to learn and also to be aware of which guy is where...this problem is compounded when one considers the fact that both locations are very dark (especially in the evenings) so the Miguel Aleman location is my favorite of the two. Another plus for the Miguel Aleman location is that is it many blocks from the hotel but the street on which the hotel is located (Bolivar) intersects Viaducto Miguel Aleman only one block from the LaCasita location. A taxi ride is about 20 pesos during the day and about 35 pesos at night. Taxis in Mexico City will usually charge more at night than during the day. I have never experienced any problems with taxis in Mexico City but any time one uses a taxi from the streets...flags down a taxi...one is assuming a risk. I use the street taxis as do most people, but it is a always good to make absolutely certain there is only one person in the taxi (only the driver) and that the card with the driver's name and photo is actually the driver. These are simply precautions but they are important. If one has the hotel call a radio taxi these are much safer and only slightly more expensive in my experience.
Back to LaCasita, it is basically a large darkroom. There are rooms which show porno movies, there are gloryholes, one can purchase softdrinks or beer (Mexican national beer is 20 pesos). The entrance fee is 40 pesos. They also sell condoms and lubricant. There are bunkbeds which are used both for sex and also for sleeping. If you are interested in watching this place is a watcher's paradise. My favorite time of day during the week for LaCasita is to arrive about 330 in the afternoon and stay as long as my cock stays hard. On weekends sunday seems to be better than saturday and I like to arrive about 330 on weekends too. Friday and saturday nights in the evening are simply too crowded. There is group sex and no shortage of cocksuckers or bottoms. I love to suck cock and also to have mine sucked and I really love to fuck. No problems. Many times there were groups of ten to twenty people involved in group sex activity. Also there are raised benches on which one can sit to allow the cocksucker easy access to his cock. This is a great place.
My next favorite location in Mexico City is actually a moving subway train. The Orange route crosses the city on the west side and runs north to south. It is actually not on the far west side of the city but is the westerly most subway line. The subway has to be the world's cheapest cruising location. It costs 20 cents to board the subway and one can remain on it as long as desired or until it closes. The system closes at about 1215am during the week and a little later on fridays and saturdays. It is always a good plan to have taxi money with you if you are cruising because if you have like as I do you will not find the one you really like until just before the subway closes down and then you will want to stay after him....so have taxi money.
The Orange Route ( LÃ*ne 7 El Rosario - Barranca del Muerto). Here is the link for the Mexico City subway system...

This link is known to gays in the city as a good, cheap place to locate guys who are interested in quick sex with other guys. Many are simply interested in being sucked, others wants to kiss with a little romance, others want to get fucked, etc. This line is active after about 9 or 930 in the evenings and is busy until the system closes. As in all of Mexico City, do not dress in a manner which will make you a target, don't carry more money than you will need or can afford to lose, also I dont wear a watch or anything else of value. The guys on the metro are not there for a fashion show.....they are there for sex. The last car of the train is the place and also the platform itself. If you find yourself on a particular train and don't like the others you find on it simply get off and wait for the next train or go across and head in the other directly. I can't promise that you will find your dream man each night but there are always willing guys and you will find yourself lucky more often than not. I love this place as it is a good place to find masculine nice looking guys.....there are many queens, but it is a good place to find guys who are looking for a fast blowjob and it is anomymous..completely.
One night..I think it was a sunday night, I was cruising the metro. It was about 1130...there were three guys on the train when it came into a station. Some guys will suck others, etc between the stations and not worry that others are watching whereas others will only allow action if there are no other guys on the train. Anyway, this evening I was watching one guy suck another when the train came into the station. This goodlooking, masculine guy got onto the train. He was the only one who boarded and no one left the train. He was dressed in a leather jacket and bluejeans...no shirt. He has a hairy chest which is not too commin in Mexico. He stopped in front of each guy and looked him over. When he stopped in front of me he motioned with his head that I should follow him. By now the train was moving. He leaned against the wall of the train which was closest to the next car, opened his pants and pulled his cock out for me to suck. I did not disappoint him.........one of my favorite encounters from years of cruising Mexico City.
My next favorite place is Viena Bar. This is a cantina located very close to Bellas Artes and is a fun place to drink beer, look at the guys and listen to good Mexico and other Latin music. There is a jukebox....three songs for five pesos. The beer is about 20 pesos depending on the brand you like. My favorite is Indio...but they have all the good brands there. This place is nothing fancy, just an old bar but very clean and safe. I have never witnessed any problems here. The restroom has a long trough for the guys to piss in and you can look at cocks if you enjoy this. Some of the guys are a little shy but some will show you everything. I enjoy this place and sometimes find guys here...but more often this is a place to go and look at the guys and realize that only sometimes will you get lucky here. Best on friday and saturday evenings. Open until about 3 in the morning. Dont be distracted by the waiters. The youngest one is about 75 years old. These guys are holdovers from the days when this was a straight establishment. It has gradually over the years become more gay until now it is completely gay. The waiters are fun and will joke with you...the service is great is a little slow...after all I did mention that the youngest one is about 75 years old. Keep an eye on your bill and you will have a great time in this place.
The next best place is Baños Mina. This is located just off of Reforma near the Hildago Metro Stop. This is a very popular place. I like to go in the afternoons from time but the weekends are not my favorite times as there are too many people there on the weekends. I have never failed to find a nice guy here for sex. There is wild sex ranging from sucking, kissing, fucking and group activity in the wet stream room and also in the small massage room located at the end of the hall. This room is no longer used for massages. The dry sauna has some action but not much. There is private action in the three small toilet areas. Guys will go here when they want privacy with their new friend or friends. During this trip the most memorible experience at Mina was a day..during the week about 1 in the afternoon when I was there and had two young guys...early twenties. I was fucking one and sucking the other which he stood on the toilet. I fucked for a while and then they changed positions and I fucked the other one and sucked the one I had been fucking. Both sucked me before the sucking started. You will want to bring condoms with you as they are not readily available at this place...and encourage the use of condoms as many guys in Mexico do not make condom use a habit. Mina is a great place. You can purchase soft drinks but no beer. They will collect your tab when you leave. Also the guys hanging around the entrance on the second floor will give you a massage..either sexual or non-sexual. A non-sexual is about 50 pesos and a sexual is whatever the guy thinks he can get out of you. The massages are not great and the sex with these guys is not too good either. I have not been with them but that is what I have been told. I don't understand paying these guys for sex when there are dozens looking for sex just a short distance away. Another thing, in many Mexican baños, it is not the custom to go to and from your room often and these rooms are not commonly used for sex.
The last place in DF that I would like to mention is Tom's Leather Bar on Insurgentes Sur. It is very near the Sears lcation on this street...just a couple of blocks away and on the other side of Insurgentes. This street is a very major avenue in the city...and in fact continues on south to Cuernavaca and north into the United States crossing the Mexican-US border at Laredo, Texas where it becomes I-35 and continues on to Dallas and points north.
Tom's is called a leather bar but there is little to no leather activity here. I have never witnessed any leather action. I enjoy this place during week night but try to avoid it on the weekend when it is simply too crowded to enjoy. It is a place like no other that I have ever experienced. There is approximately 70 peso cover charge which will permit admittance to the bar and cover two Mexican beers. This is very little electric lighting, but rather lighting is provided by very large candles located around the bar. The walls are block and the ceiling is black with stars painted on it. It is not unusual to hear opera playing. It is all very tasteful. There is a long bar near the frong and a platform where built guys will strip and dance along the other wall. The guys take it all off...jack their cocks..usually very large for the audience. It is not unusual to see three or four built guys jacking there cocks for the crowd. I don't know if these guys are available or not....I would assume they are for the right price........but why pay when there is a dark room in the back of this bar with a lot of action. No problem sucking cocks, getting sucked..fucking..whatever you want here.......The action starts about 11..and continues until about 4am...there is a small restaurant with tacos, tortas, etc located next door which is 24 hours and sometimes guys go there afterhours......I like Tom's but it is too crowded on the weekends when there are too many people and sometimes the dark room is a little too full....
These are the best places in DF in my opinion and I go there often enough. I actually spent most of my time in Cuernavaca which is only one hour south of DF......Pullmans de Morelos...to the Taxquena metro stop and then into the city. I know this route very well as there is not too much action in Cuernvaca, I think probably because of its closeness to Mexico City.
Coco's Bar in Cuernavaca is nice and I did get some ass from there....very nice guys working there and the owner is absolutely handsome with a great body...too bad he has a boyfriend!! Also, in Cuernavaca the Zocolo is a good place to find guys. I went several nights with other students from the Spanish school to a restaurant/bar llocated on one side of the Cuernavaca zocolo called Arcos..this is a nice place. Good beer and live entertainment. Best of all it is a great place to sit and watch the guys go by. As is the custom in Mexico from about 5 until 10 or so many guys can be found sitting in the zocolo...either alone or with friends ..looking for a little action. The one in Cuernavaca is no different. I met two guys here on two different nights and blew both of them........
There is a porno theater just off of Plan de Ayala in Cuernavaca too. Some action there but not much. It is very old and not too clean......It is better than nothing, but not by much.
If you have any questions about any of the places I have mentioned in this message send me an email.
Take care...
