Overview

Upcoming Taco Tour Dates

These are the taco tour tickets Kansas City taco fans keep asking for. Each Tuesday the Red Machine leaves the Hilton Garden Inn lobby in KCK at 5:30 PM and visits four local taquerias, one taco at each stop.

Each date has its own theme. Tuesday, October 13, 2026 is Best of the Best, a mixed lineup of carnitas, al pastor, asada and birria. Tuesday, October 20, 2026 is Carnitas night. New dates and themes are added as they are set.

Seats are $39.99 per rider. The bus holds 16 to 22 people, so book early if you are bringing friends. Not seeing a date that works? Grab a gift card for later, or book the whole bus as a private tour.
