Great way to see the highlights of the historic area and sample some typical food & snacks. - The guide (Daniela) was very knowledgeable. We saw the major sites in the historic area & sampled some great food, including an Oaxacan restaurant, a stand with blue corn quesadillas & the town's most popular bakery. I highly recommend this tour!

Highlight of first trip to Mexico City - My partner and I did the History Colors and Tequila Downtown tour with Andres in early November. Andres is an AWESOME guide and the experience was one of the best things we did during our week long trip. He does an amazing job of tying historical references to current culture in Mexico. We learned so much about the Mexican people and he took us of the beaten path to sites we would have never found without him. We cannot wait to come back to CDMX and do more tours with Mexico a Pie !!!

Of course learned the difference between Mezcal & Tequila. Highly recommended tour when you visit Mexico City...
