What you'll do

We bet you can’t wait to immerse yourself in Mexico City’s vibrant culture, diverse neighborhoods, and ancient heritage. We know this because, well, we’d love to do the same. Follow one of our friendly Mexico City hosts as they help you do just that!

Whether you’d like to explore the Centro Histórico and see the famous Palacio de Bellas Artes, or get off the beaten path and have your host show you some of the more obscure haunts that locals enjoy, the choice is entirely yours.

Perhaps you’d like to wander the quaint streets of Coyoacán? This neighborhood, named after the wily coyote, is known for its bustling markets, cobbled stone streets, and colonial churches. Get lost in the timeless beauty of this area, before taking a short walk to La Casa Azul (The Blue House), the former home of revered Mexican artist and icon, Frida Kahlo. 

If you’re feeling peckish, you need only look to your nearest street food vendor or local eatery for a solution. We don’t need to tell you how incredible Mexican food is, but we will. Because seriously, it’s ridiculous. From old-school cantinas to boating excursions on ancient canals, Mexico City is just waiting to be discovered, so away with you!

    Wonderful day with Roberto We had Roberto design a full day for us in CDMX. We went through a variety of beautiful neighborhoods, saw beautiful buildings, parks and churches and even the University. We were incredibly spoiled, as Roberto is an archaeologist! I would definitely recommend this guide to anyone.

    Had the pleasure of spending a truly wonderful day in Mexico City with Isaac. Grateful for the experience with him on so many levels. He was kind, attentive, extremely knowledgeable about the city, its many neighborhoods and its rich history. If you’re a lover of the arts, Isaac knows the local art scene exceptionally well. He brought me to a range of neighborhoods from the well known to the up and coming. We took the bus everywhere, walked into secret alleyways that revealed incredible food vendors, boutique galleries and shops that were off the beaten path. This is a man who speaks five languages, and will share his knowledge of world religions, art, architecture and history. What a gift to have had this time with him. Thank you Isaac.

    Great Experience! Our tour guide Roberto was very knowledgeable and informative when he took around the sights in downtown Mexico. He helped us take a large and (for us) unknown city. I can not recommend Roberto enough!
