Hi, I’m Alejandro, your friendly local host in Mexico City! Whether it’s exploring its iconic monuments, strolling through fascinating museums, or simply soaking in the energy of its neighborhoods, there’s always something incredible to discover. One of my favorite things to do is wander through the Historical Center, uncovering its beauty at every turn. I’m also a huge fan of Mexico City’s culinary scene—after all, it’s home to some of the best cuisines in the world! From bustling markets to hidden food spots, every meal is an adventure, and I love sharing these flavors with visitors. With my passion for history, architecture, and local landmarks, I can help you uncover the stories behind the city’s most iconic sites. Let’s explore together and make your time in Mexico City unforgettable!
Alejandro was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about Mexico City. We began with the history of the city, beginning at ground zero (where the historical, pre-Colombian) beginnings of the city origins. We visited an archeological museum, then Alejandro, went the extra mile to review additional archeological findings around town. Next, we walked through the colonial historical neighborhoods, and markets, all the while getting more architectual knowledge along the way. Alejandro was especially effective in connecting the historial city to its evolution into the modern city we see today, including the historical persons involved. Extremely thorough and comprehensive, I am so much smarter now, then I was this morning, before I went on the tour with Alejandro. Bring comfortable walking shoes - you'll get plenty of steps in!

It was a fantastic tour. Alejandro was a fantastic guide. I learned so much from him about the culture and history of Mexico and how much Mexico City developed and was shaped in more recent centuries. Alejandro also made some restaurant suggestions which I will try. In short, I loved it. Would definitely recommend him! Thank you so much!

Alejandro was friendly, knowledgeable and and a wonderful first exposure to Mexico City! He helped to ensure that everything we wanted to see was accommodated, even some very off the beaten path requests.
