What travelers think of our Mexico City experiences
Marisol was an amazing tour guide! She made the whole trip really special and personal for my family, she even made special signs and greetings for my kids that they loved. I can’t recommend her highly enough!

Show moreAlejandro 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!
Show moreNinelth gave us a wonderful tour of Diego’s and Frida’s house /studio, The historical spate of Mexico City and also we had a chance to visit the San Angel neighborhood where we got to buy beautiful drawing. Our guide was very knowledgeable and gave us a wonderful and informative historical background of the places we visited. We highly recommend this tour!

What you’ll do
We know that basilicas and historic landmarks might not be so much fun when you’re easily distracted and eight years old, but we’re pretty sure that the huge open parks, zip lines, and energy-fuelled days in the open air are. You’ll join one of our friendly hosts, who will make sure you can get on with the important business of enjoying yourself, while they plan your family’s day in Mexico City.
All you need to do is let us know what your family’s vibe is, and we’ll do the rest. You could explore highlights like the eco-park Bioparque Estrella, put together a picnic to enjoy at Bosque de Chapultepec; a forest where you can rent paddle boats and paddle up the river, explore monuments, or find some yummy tacos at a food stall or lakeside restaurant.
Perhaps you want to check out the miniature village at KidZania if your little ones are very little, or climb aboard one of the colorful barges of Xochimilco and discover the Ancient Aztec side of the city! Whatever it is, our host will be sure to ensure you have lots of fun in the city!
