Experience Mexico City
Beyond the Guidebooks

Marisol gave our family a wonderful tour. She was knowledgeable, did a great job explaining things, and focused on those areas that were of most interest to us. Highly recommend!

Esperienza fantastica, la guida Marisol è stata eccezionale: una vera professoressa per Città del Messico, in poche ore mi ha insegnato tantissimo su questa splendida città sia a livello di storia che di architettura. Grazie ai suoi concetti precisi ed efficaci posso portare con me e condividere questa esperienza. A fantastic experience, our guide, Marisol, was exceptional: a true professor of Mexico City, she taught me so much about this splendid city in just a few hours, both in terms of history and architecture. Thanks to her precise and effective concepts, I can take this experience with me and share it with others.

Marisol very knowledgeable and intelligent….enjoyed our time with her

Mirasol was an incredible host. I planned the trip and the experience because of the true customizable manor of the day. I'd booked it as a "private tour" but had a photographer and her assistant join as well as I'd planned to propose to my now fiance on the trajinera ride! Mirasol not only went above and beyond to make sure we were all in the right place at the right time but actually herself got us a mariachi to help us celebrate the moment on the trajinera after. It truly couldn't have been a more special day and when my photographer friend and her assistant had to leave she then took my fiance and I around the rest of the Xochimilco area teaching us the history, trying street food, helping us shop at the market. We couldn't have asked for a better experience!

Host was superb.

Roberto was knowledgeable and fantastic.

This walking tour exceeded our expectations thanks to Roberto. He is incredibly friendly, attentive, and an excellent storyteller. Touring our neighborhood with him on Christmas Eve felt intimate and meaningful, not touristy at all. He was very considerate of us and made sure everyone felt comfortable. One of the highlights of our trip—would absolutely recommend.

Our guide knew the hidden gems, was very knowledgeable.

Fantastic experience. Gave us a great feel for this amazing city. Adrianna was the best guide - of many over the years- that we have ever had the pleasure to meet. She was the best person to spend a day with.

Fantastic tour! Adriana was wonderful and wish she could be our guide wherever we go in the world. She made the experience personal and memorable. We enjoyed this tour very much!

Adriana felt like more than a tour guide, from the moment we met Adriana outside our hotel we felt like we were walking with a friend we had known for a long time.

⭐️ Recommendation for Adriana We enthusiastically recommend Adriana as an outstanding Mexico City tour guide. From the moment the tour began on our first day, she proved to be incredibly knowledgeable, providing deep insights into the city’s culture, history, and key attractions. Adriana truly goes the extra mile for her guests, making the experience memorable and highly educational. Anyone looking for a dedicated and deeply informed guide should book a tour with her.

Lando was great - we had a great historical walk around Roma and Condessa with a variety of interesting foods along the way!

We had an amazing walking tour with Lando. We loved seeing some hidden gems we would have missed otherwise. Lando made us feel like friends rather than tourists. I would highly recommend taking a tour with him!

Lando was absolutely incredible! He truly brought the history of the ancient city alive. He went above and beyond to ensure we were engaged and learning while having a great time. He volunteered to take SO many pictures and videos, which are all really special to look back on. Sometimes it’s tough to get pictures of the two of you when traveling as a couple, so it was very considerate of Lando to make sure we had all we could want. He ended up recommending a taco place that was one of our favorites of the trip, and picked us up and dropped us off exactly where needed. His knowledge is off the charts and really filled in the gaps. Teotihuacan is a place where you really need a guide to get the most value, and Lando delivered and then some. Thank you!!

Lando was amazing. He took photos along the way and was extremely knowledge about the history of the city and the culture.

Ernesto was an excellent guide who went above and beyond to make sure we visited all the major sites. He was extremely knowledgeable, well organized, and always attentive to our needs, which made the tour both informative and enjoyable.

Ernesto was a fantastic tour guide. He shared the history, culture and beauty of Mexico City with great knowledge and enthusiasm. It was as though an old friend showed us around his city as we walked, talked and got to know each other. Getting to experience Mexico City with Ernesto was an invaluable treat.

Fabulous!!!!

Ernesto went above & beyond to give us a great introduction to Mexico City, starting in the Centro Historico. He has a deep and nuanced understanding of the political history of Mexico, and also is keenly aware how culture (food, fine arts, architecture, literature, etc.) both influenced and was influenced by this history. And, to top it off, he's just a kind and generous person. 11 out of 10!

Oskar was wonderful! His knowledge and love of his city really shows. We had a great time walking around and seeing the locals side of Mexico City.

Oscar is a historian and could tell us all about the architecture and history of the region, plus the history of the war monuments.

Wonderful introduction to Mexico City. Oskar was an incredible guide - he was so knowledgeable and incorporated history and current events throughout the tour. In addition to the downtown highlights, we visited places that I would never have found on my own - hidden murals, galleries, libraries doubling as art installations, convents, shops, etc. highly recommend Oskar!

Oskar was a great guide who tailored the tour to what we were interested in. The pace and information was spot on.

Nileth was a wonderful tour guide who catered perfectly to our family and brought an amazing blend of local history, culture, and personal insights. She also included thoughtful stops to experience authentic local cuisine, which made the day even more special. We experienced so much more than we ever could have exploring the city center on our own. Highly recommend!

From the moment I met Ninelth it has been exceptional. From the notes before we met, to the personalized tour to the understanding that is was only 1 not two but from our beginning I learned so much about Mexico City and Mexico that I found myself teaching others as I moved through the city. I consider this one of my best tours ever taken in the world.

We had a wonderful time on this custom private tour with our guide Ninelth. Her passion for history was evident from the start, and we really enjoyed exploring the sights with someone so knowledgeable. Ninelth even took photos of us along the way, which was a thoughtful touch and very helpful. One small suggestion for improvement would be to include a built-in snack or hot chocolate stop. We went to a delicious hot chocolate place on our own and enjoyed it, and it would be nice to have that included so guests do not have to worry about paying extra. I would have been happy to pay a little extra for the ticket if it includes that. Overall it was a great experience, and we highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting a personal and informative look at Mexico City.

Nina is an amazing and patient tour guide who made our experience in Mexico City truly unforgettable. Her passion for indigenous communities and civilizations shines through in every part of the tour. She’s incredibly knowledgeable — covering everything from language, art history, and architecture to anthropology and theology — and shares it all in a way that’s both engaging and accessible. We learned so much about the many cultural and historical influences that have shaped Mexico City. A highlight was grabbing delicious tacos during the tour and exploring the vibrant Mercado de San Juan. I only wish we had more time! Nina’s warmth, insight, and enthusiasm made this tour one of the most memorable parts of our trip. Highly recommended!

He was knowledgeable, but never overbearing. Eager to learn as much as he was to teach. Created a very positive interaction.

If you are staying in Reforma or Polanco I would highly recommend this tour to see another neighborhood in this city. Nic was a fantastic guide. He covered the culture, architecture, history, and the food scene. It was a lovely two hour walk around mostly Roma and he gave me lots of recommendations on things to try later. It was a wonderful experience and I grabbed lunch locally before I left afterwards. Thanks so much, Nic!

A personalize tour of Mexico City. We are a family of 4 and Nic was very engaging to the teenagers in the group. We got an abridged history, we can only learn so much in an afternoon. It was wonderful.

We felt very safe and got a lot of insights. Guide is very nice and always took care of us and our interests.

Claudia was knowledgeable, spoke excellent English, listen and answered all our questions with a real sense of knowledge on the subject matter. She was charming and very personable as well.

Claudia was so lovely and showed us some great things and we learned a lot.

La guía no conocía la información que le solicitamos. Le falta preparación. Y también deberá aprender a escuchar las solicitudes y necesidades del cliente… The guide did not know the information we requested. She lacks training. And she also needs to learn to listen to the clients requests and needs…

Claudia showed us hidden spots we wouldn’t have found on our own!

This was our favorite tour in Mexico City! Isaac was an amazing tour guide who took his time with us and made the experience so special. He took us to some amazing taco spots and a dessert place. He knew the Roma Norte neighborhood well and even took us to a park and gave history lesson. Isaac started as a guide and left as a new friend.

The local tour with a guide was the highlight of my business trip! My second visit to Mexico City was for a conference and I def needed a break from the hotel. My first time hiring a private guide was definitely worth the experience! Isaac took me to some hidden gems that I would never have seen wandering on my own. He knew my interest was in architecture, history and food -- but not in that order!! Highlights were an amazing lunch in Roma North and a wander through the Condesa neighborhood! If I had a dog and could work remotely from there I would!

My wife and I had a great tour with Isaac! It was our first time in Mexico City and we wanted to learn about the local neighborhoods and also eat great tacos. I loved getting to know Mexico City from a local like Isaac, who is incredibly knowledgeable about the history, culture, and food scene. Isaac was kind and very informative during our tour. He met us at our lodging and took us to some of the best taco spots in the area (some of which we ended up going back to even after our tour was over). It was a great experience overall and I highly recommend taking this tour, especially with Isaac as a tour guide!

Great walk around the town. Isaak offers a ton of knowledge of the subject, especially art and architecture. He is highly educated in the topic and shared with us his love of the City.

We had a large group, including two children, aged 6 and 2. Ingrid was very accommodating, providing interesting and essential information about Mexico City, while patiently allowing for delays and interruptions that were part of the family interaction. Much appreciated!

Ingrid is considerate, friendly, knowledgeable and easy to work with. She is quite flexible in making arrangements. I would recommend the trip.

Ingrid, our guide, was very knowledgeable, thoughtful and resourceful on our tour. We loved every second of it!

Ingrid has a wonderful demeanor and really brings a local’s knowledge of history. I enjoyed our walk a lot!

Nico spent a lot of time with us, telling us about the history of the city, making stops for tacos & drinks, and providing a great introduction to Mexico City. Good communication before the tour to find out what we were interested in.

Nico made the experience a really good one. He knows the city, the history and he is really a pleasant guide. We learned a lot about Mexico and we visited key hotspots.

What made the experience special was having such a knowledgeable guide who really knew Mexico City and Xochimilco inside and out. It made a huge difference to have someone who could easily navigate between locations, share the history and culture of both areas, and even introduce us to trusted local contacts, like our boat operator. I also appreciated learning useful local phrases so we could interact with people ourselves. The guide gave us great tips on where to get the best photos and experience the city’s nightlife. Overall, it was an amazing, well-rounded experience.

For our first visit to Mexico City, we were looking for a walking tour to give us an orientation to the city on our first day. Nico was our tour guide and he delivered! He met us near our hotel in Reforma and we explored the Centro Historica. He is super positive, friendly and knowledgeable. We enjoyed spending the day with him and learned so much in a short period of time. He gave us just the right amount of information about history and culture without overwhelming us as he showed us around so many key sights and took us to a few locals places to grab a snack and lunch. Highly recommend! Suggest 4-5 hours as there is a lot to cover so you can go at a relaxed pace and have time to stop for a snack and grab a bite to eat.

Alex was fantastic. We got to learn a ton of local and national history and see so many different areas that it’s hard to believe we did all that in two hours. We don’t speak Spanish so his English fluency was just what we needed. And he was very flexible in accommodating a few stops along the planned route so we could buy some local snacks.

Alex was an excellent guide. Highly recommended

Alex was an amazing tour guide. Local and VERY knowledgeable. He had visited our hometown recently so we had an immediate connection. He took us for great food and shared the great history of Mexico. He was a great guide. Highly recommend.

Alex was a brilliant guide, took us to some places that we wouldn’t have thought to go to

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!

Alejandro was an amazing tour guide and explained the history of Mexico and how Mexico City developed into the city that we visit today. Would 100 per cent recommend him!

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.

Yaravi, was excellent. As first time visitors to Mexico City we wanted to enjoy street food. Yara took us to a local restaurant. It was great.

Yara was an informative, kind, and overall excellent tour guide. She took us around Condesa and Roma Norte on the evening of our arrival in Mexico City. We were staying in Condesa and wanted to get familiar with our surrounding neighborhood. She did that perfectly. She showed us the major streets, the major parks and landmarks, and a bunch of the restaurants we had reservations at over the course of our trip. She also gave us the history of the neighborhood within the long history of Mexico City and showed as some must-see spots that my wife and I had not found in our own research. Overall, it was a great way to start our trip.

Die Tour hat grossen Spass gemacht und war perfekt auf uns zugeschnitten. Spontane Stopps hatten auch Platz! Danke☺️ The tour was great fun and perfectly tailored to our needs. There was even room for spontaneous stops! Thank you☺️

It felt like walking with a friend while receiving interesting insights on the city, it's people, it's history and the day to day dynamics. Loved to be able to go on my own pace and ask all the questions that came into my mind.
