Fascinaing and educational - Our tour included the Zócalo, the National Cathedral, the Templo Mayor excavation, the Angel of Independence, and the National Museum of Anthropology.
It was all very interesting and well done but I'll focus on the museum. The Mexica (Aztec) and Teotihuacan rooms are full of masterpieces of those cultures, gorgeously displayed and lit.
One caveat: I assumed the tour would spend most of the time at the Museum of Anthropology and that I'd have time to learn about Teotihuacan, which I was planning to visit the next day. Obviously, I had no idea how big the museum is or how different the various cultures were. When Gabriela said we would only see the Mexica room, I was surprised and disappointed - but not for long. She graciously adjusted the tour so that we saw both the Mexica and Teotihuacan rooms, and she did a fabulous job on both. I lost track of time, but I'm pretty sure she and the driver, Eduardo, worked longer than usual that day.
I will recommend this tour to my friends and colleagues.

Do it right away! - Nice people, nice sights. Not expensive! Lots to see. If you come from Europe, you are kind of an attraction there yourself. Take that into account when you are a woman!

Of the best places to visit if you go in knowledge and walk. There is much to see and learn. - You can not miss it, if you go to Mexico City it is mandatory to do this tour. Also that half a day is very little time to make a real tour. What is there is very beautiful.

Great experience, bad timing - Don´t miss the visit to the Archaeological Museum with impresive historical pieces and samples, the best was Gabriela the museum guide, ask for her.

Pickup was close to 45... - Pickup was close to 45 min late. Ended up a private tour. Guide was not very fluent in English and did not appear very knowledgeable - maybe also due to language issues. So a 5 hr tour ended in 4.
