Family Trip

We had a great day exploring, our guide Noah was very informative and clear in the history of the site. There is no way we would have learned as much had we come without a guide. Also it was so easy, we were picked up at our hotel and dropped off at our desired location. Highly recommend.

Xochimilco, Coyoacan and Frida Kahlo with Optional Lunch

Mark_T, Aug 2026

Very enjoyable and diverse day

Wonderful day—Xochimilco and Frida Kahlo are must-sees along with a couple short stops and lots of history during the drive. The lunch was good (variety of options and live music). German and Sal were informative and friendly. Definitely recommended if you’re ok with larger bus tours.

Angel was a great guide

Angel was the most adorable guide, and very knowledgeable on the pyramids. Be aware that the cost of this tour can soar if you take into account the nice but expensive craft that are presented to you during the first stop, and the lunch at the Cueva. We build some nice memories from this trip

Teotihuacan Tour with Basilica of Guadalupe & Tlatelolco

Maria_R, Jul 2026

Fantastic Experience

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely incredible experience from start to finish! This was hands down one of the best tours we’ve ever been on, and I would recommend it to anyone without hesitation. Our tour guide, Eager, was outstanding! His knowledge, energy, and passion made every stop so much more meaningful. He explained everything in such an engaging way and made sure we never missed a thing. Eager truly went above and beyond to make the tour smooth, fun, and stress-free. He was always happy to answer questions, made everyone feel welcome, and genuinely cared that we had the best possible experience. Thanks to him, we left with unforgettable memories and a much greater appreciation for everything we saw. If you’re thinking about booking this tour, don’t hesitate—you won’t regret it! Thank you, Eager, for making our trip so special!

Tolantongo Caves Hot Springs & Waterfalls Small Group Tour

Alexandria_R, Jul 2026

Such a dream! An absolute must.

Such an amazing experience, and SO glad I went, but be prepared. It's a LONG day! Three hours each way. While I didn't feel rushed, I would have liked to have had more time at the actual hot springs. If you're unable to swing it, this is a great option, but don't plan anything else for the day, as getting back will be difficult (think LA/ATL prime traffic gridlock). If you have a few days to spare, rent a car and stay at least 1 night to really enjoy it. Our tour guides were awesome! Took us to the cutest cafe to have breakfast. Best coffee ever! And went to an empanada shop on our way back. If you've never been and are limited on time during your trip to CDMX, it's 10000% worth going!

Puebla, Cholula & Tonantzintla Day Trip with Optional Lunch

Kerry_H, Jul 2026

An incredible day trip...

An incredible day trip from Mexico City! Puebla is beautiful, Cholula was fascinating, and the views of Popocatépetl and Iztaccíhuatl were spectacular. We were even lucky enough to witness Popocatépetl erupt while leaving the Great Pyramid of Cholula, a once-in-a-lifetime experience! Alfonso was a fantastic guide, knowledgeable, organized, and made sure everyone had a great day. Highly recommend this tour!

Early Access Chapultepec Castle & Anthropology Museum

Miguel_C, Jul 2026

Fernando is the best tour guide!

We absolutely loved our tour with Fernando! Nos encantó nuestro tour con Fernando! You may read several reviews that state the tour is long but honestly if you have Fernando as your guide, it is not a problem as he gives staggered breaks for you to sit, use the bathroom, or grab a quick bite. Fernando made the tour so fun and packed with knowledge. He gave such a great overview of important history and fun facts while staying focused on the most famous and popular exhibits in order to make the most of our time. I highly recommend booking with Fernando!

Magical ballon ride over the pyramids

What a magical experience over the pyramids. The tour guides were excellent, and the photographer was amazing. Another moment in time crossed off my bucket list. They stayed in communication with me during my booking and up until the moment of pick up. So dependable and reliable for sure.

Great trip! Guide was...

Great trip! Guide was very knowledgeable and was able to communicate in both Espanol and English to the split tour. Driver was great and drove with care. Good experience at all 3 stops. Food stop was ok, lots of vendors at the artisanal shop and teotihuacan. But overall, learned a lot and had a great experience
