Must see Mexico City with a local

What you'll do

You’ll spend with one of our friendly Mexico City hosts, getting to know the city's highlights and local haunts. The city has such an incredible history, which is why you might like to start in Zócalo, an ancient square that used to be the center of the Aztec Empire before it was captured by the Spanish colonists.

Follow your host around the surprisingly green broadways of the city center as they share its rich heritage with you. From old school bars (cantinas) to sleek museums that look like something out of the future, Mexico City will surprise you will its nod to both the past and present.

Explore the Bosque de Chapultepec, a large inner-city park that’s considered Mexico City’s green lung, and even make friends with the sweet little squirrels that live there! From the top of its rocky outcrop, you can get spectacular views of the cityscape.

Whatever you’d like to do, be it take in the famous sites, like the Ángel de la Independencia, or stroll around a quirky neighborhood, your host has got you covered and will make up for any Spanish you lack.

    Our tour with Roberto was great. He was incredibly knowledgeable across architecture, archaeology remains, art history and food. We saw several neighborhoods and Roberto was able to point out interesting details everywhere we went.

    Roberto and the City Unscripted team were FANTASTIC! My husband and I traveled with our two teenage grandchildren and he put together a terrific two days of interesting sites, just enough learning and lots of fun experiences. He made our trip to Mexico City enjoyable, memorable and so interesting. Thank you so very much, Roberto!

    Alan was really familiar with the history of CDMX and intellectual conversation was very interesting as well. He was very knowledgeable and had a lot of patience while explaining and answering any additional questions I had! I love his free spirit and knowledge of indigenous practices as well. CDMX did not disappoint and appreciate the interests that my tour guide paid attention to as well.
