Amazing Experience! - Monica was a truly amazing guide and made the experience of seeing the pyramids absolutely unforgettable. This was the highlight of our entire trip to Mexico City and we would 100% recommend that people do this. Monica knew so much about the area and the history, and it made the trip so much more than simply seeing the pyramids. Also, our driver was fantastic - he made sure that we were comfortable and, as someone who gets car sick a lot, he made sure the trip out there was smooth. I very much recommend that all travelers do this!

Professional, Informative, & Engaging - Diana is an excellent guide. Professional, informative, enthusiastic about the City and the Pyramids. Since there is no written record from the builders so much is unknown. She shares current interpretations and asks the travelers their thoughts which is a very nice touch when traveling in a small group.

Exceptional Tour! - This was a wonderful tour. The guide, Monica, was extremely professional, personable, pleasant, patient, and knowledgeable. Her communication both before the tour and during it was excellent. She shared a wealth of information about the culture, art, architecture, religion, history, geography, and anthropology of the site. The trip was very well planned, coordinated, and conducted. Our group was very pleased with everything. Monica did a fantastic job and we highly recommend her and Local Vibes!

Best tour guide experience - I am delighted to express my satisfaction with the tour I recently booked with this company. The guide exceeded my expectations in every aspect. Not only was she highly knowledgeable and articulate about the Aztec ruins, but she also possessed extensive knowledge about other regions of Mexico. Her wealth of information and engaging storytelling made our tour an unforgettable experience. The communication was flawless. We were also able to incorporate a last-minute detour to Our Lady of Guadalupe Basilica. The driver was exceptionally courteous and ensured our safety. His driving style instilled a profound sense of relaxation within. Muchísimas Gracias
