Our guide was Marisol and... - Our guide was Marisol and she was a DELIGHT! She was so knowledgeable, she real-time tailored our tour to our interests, she was engaging, and even took us to her favorite taquerias in the city when we mentioned my husband is a chef. She even sent us links to restaurants, cafes, and day trip travel plan ideas after the tour was finished. This was by FAR one of the best tour experiences my husband and I have had!

Mexico City in 12k steps - Alex was the perfect toy guide for our Mexico City adventure! His deep knowledge, warm personality, and hilarious sense of humor made the tour unforgettable. All six of us had an absolute blast—he kept us laughing, learning, and fully engaged from start to finish. Whether he was sharing quirky toy trivia or cracking jokes, Alex made the experience feel personal and fun. Highly recommending Alex to anyone visiting Mexico City and looking for a guide who’s smart, friendly, and genuinely entertaining!

Awesome tour and a great experience - Roberto is an awesome guide filled with great history and insights. We really enjoyed our tour and felt like we got a glimpse into Mexico City. Highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting. We booked a four hour tour to be sure we had time to see the highlights and I still feel like we only scratched the surface of everything there is to see and do.

Fantastic 6 hour tour with Marisol! - We had an awesome 6 hour tour with Marisol! We had a 28 hour stopover in Mexico City and wanted to see as much as we could during the day. The tour is extremely customizable and we were able to select everything we wanted to do and see based on our interests. We even needed to make a quick stop to the doctor and pharmacy and Marisol helped us with that and we greatly appreciated her kindness and patience. Marisol was very knowledgeable and her passion for her culture and hometown really shows. We ate some amazing street food and other treats and also got to see a lot of things during our one day in Mexico City. We wouldn’t hesitate to book this tour again and I highly recommend Marisol as a guide.
