A must in Mexico City - This is one of the best tours I have ever been on. Ricardo knows the city really well, so we got to see hidden gems that a lot of people would never see on their own. This tour gave good historical context, showcased a lot of beauty, but also included hidden rooftops for pandemic views. It felt like we were able to do the touristy things but it never felt touristy. We felt like we had insider access. Ricardo was very knowledgeable and very passionate about his home.

Fabulous walking tour! - We just took Ricardo's walking tour. We loved it! Ricardo's love for this city is infectious. He pointed out and showed us things that we never would have noticed or found without a knowledgeable guide. He is a great communicator and made the history (and the present) of Mexico City very interesting and awesome. He also takes great pictures. Id say to anyone visiting (or even locals) you should do this tour. And, do it early in your trip because we left with a great many suggestions for things to do after our tour ended. Thanks Ricardo for such a memorable day!
