Show moreAlex was a great guide with a lot of knowledge about Mexico City, history, art, architecture and more. He really let us tailor the tour and experience including the pace and things we knew we wanted to see and experience. He also showed us plenty of things that weren’t already on our list. He gave us recommendations for great food and coffee as well. Really had a wonderful time and would definitely recommend this tour to others who want to get familiar with the city.
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!
