Hi there! I'm Adriana, your friendly local host here in Mexico City! Exploring museums and libraries is my passion – there's nothing like delving into the depths of our culture and heritage. But it's not all about the past; I adore strolling through local markets, savoring delicious treats while chatting with vendors and soaking in the atmosphere. You can often find me biking through city parks or wandering the charming streets of neighborhoods like the historic center, Condesa, Coyoacán, and Ciudad Universitaria. I know them like the back of my hand. As a Mexico City guru, I'm always eager to share my knowledge of our museums, theaters, and libraries – the beating heart of our artistic scene, there's never a dull moment in this dynamic city. Come explore with me, and let's uncover the magic of Mexico City together!

I am so glad that I booked this custom tour. Adriana was a perfect match and did a great job building a tour around my interests. I highly recommend making it the first thing you do after getting to the city. It felt as though I was meeting an old friend to show me around their city. Adriana was so knowledgeable and clearly loves her city very much. She took me off the beaten path and we went places that would have been difficult for me to get to alone. If you have any interest delving a little deeper into Mexico City, its history or culture, then you simply must do this tour. It was one of the highlights of my trip and gave me a lot of confidence to explore on my own.
