What are people saying about Mexico City

Balloon flight + pick up in CDMX + Breakfast in Cave + Teotihuacan

Rita_S, Apr 2026

Bucket list item - check!

A full day experience. It's tiring, but worth it. Very well organized and a lot of fun. A few things to note that I wish I knew before. - The balloons are huge, and there are more than 20 people on the ride. Your group is placed in small sections of 4-5 adults in each. There's not much room to move around. - The vans are a little old and very bumpy, especially in the back. If you get car sick, be careful. - The "bread and coffee" before the balloon ride - it was muffins (with NUTS), cookies, and sweet coffee. FYI, in case you have to watch your sugar intake or have food allergies. - It's cool/cold in the morning, especially while waiting for the balloon to fill up. While in the balloon, it's windy, but the heat from the fire is also hot. It gets very warm during the late morning pyramid hike. LAYER your clothing, and bring a hat/sunscreen for the second part of the excursion. You can leave your items in the van at each stop. Note, you're not allowed to bring anything on the balloon, even a small purse. - The breakfast at the cave is beautiful and delicious (chilaquiles or omelets). They have vegetarian and vegan options, too. Just ask. - During the market/mezcal tasting. If you like the Obsidian stone items, purchase them there. I thought I could find it back in CDMX, but I couldn't find it easily in the city.

A Wonderful Coyoacán & Frida Kahlo Experience with Maria

Maria gave an outstanding tour of Coyoacán and the life of Frida Kahlo. She was warm, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about the history of the neighborhood and its cultural significance, which is rare and refreshing. She brought the streets of Coyoacán to life with fascinating stories about its colonial past, artistic heritage, and how it became one of the most charming areas of Mexico City. Her explanations were engaging and easy to follow, with just the right balance of historical detail and local insight. The portions about Frida Kahlo were especially memorable. Maria shared thoughtful context about Frida’s life, art, relationships, and lasting influence in a way that felt personal and human rather than the usual recycled trivia people cling to like souvenirs. She was organized, friendly, and happy to answer questions throughout the tour. If you want to understand both the spirit of Coyoacán and the legacy of Frida Kahlo, Maria is an excellent guide. Highly recommended.

Ilse our guide was...

Ilse our guide was amazing. Very knowledgeable in informing us of everything we needed to know about Teotihuacan. On the way there she would pinpoint out anything significant that may be of interest to travelers. Special mention to our driver. Whose name I can't remember. He got us there and back to the hotel safely.

Very well planned

This experience is extremely well planned. 6 of us joined from Roma Norte in Mexico, we got pick up from Airbnb. Our ride to hot air balloon was very smooth, drive felt really safe. We were greeted by Raul at the spot, our hot air balloon ride started right on time. It was breathtaking. Breakfast was average but the overall breakfast in cave was worth it. They also took us to a market place which can be skiped but it doesn’t take too long. We were taken at pyramids of teotihuacan, we climbed one of the pyramids. We were back to Roma by 2.30pm

Excellent Private tour of Teotihuacan

Fantastic private tour. They were very flexible with our timing for pickup and lunch. We went straight from Mexico city to Teotihuacan which meant we got there before all of the crowds which was nice. The tour guide Stephy had great English and was super knowledgeable about everything. There are lots of steps so wear comfortable shoes. We went to La Gruta for lunch, which was fine. The mezcal tasting and shopping stop after the pyramid tour was fun.

Historic Center Food Tour in Mexico City

Chad_S, Apr 2026

CDMX thu the eyes of an expert!

We really enjoyed our tour with our guide Tania! We hit 8 spots throughout our three hour tour, including a historic market, a beautiful cathedral, a local bar, a legendary bakery, a couple of stunning restaurants, and the main, popular stretch of the Centro Historico. Along the way, Tania was so knowledgeable about food, culture, architecture, and the history of everything that we saw, visited, and tasted. My wife's favorite bite was the fresh ceviche tostada at the San Juan mercado, and my favorite bite was the plantain-bean empanada at the El Bajío restaurant. We highly recommend this tour. Although it was long (be prepared for the full length in the description), it was action-packed, with a great variety of eating and walking (bring comfy shoes). It was also nice to meet and speak with the other travelers who signed up for the tour.

Nicholas was a great ambassador of the amazing CDMX

We had a wonderful walk through the Centro Histórico with Nicolas. He is a fountain of information and proud of his heritage. It's so much nicer to explore such a history rich city, when your eyes are supported by a story teller giving it a much deeper meaning. The 3 hours were over before we knew it, but Nicholas wasn't yet done. Still spent almost half an hour extra showing the his favorite building, the current Grand Hotel Ciudad de Mexico.

Mexico City E-Bike Tour with a taco and churros stop

Zak_L, Mar 2026

Best Way to See Mexico City

Had an awesome time on the Adriana y Norman electric bike tour through Mexico City. The route was really well thought out — we rode through Condesa, Roma, Juárez, and into the Zócalo, and it felt like the perfect mix of neighborhoods to really understand the city. The pace was great. Not rushed, not slow — just enough time to take things in without feeling tired. The e-bikes made it easy to cover a lot of ground without it feeling like a workout. Adriana and Norman were welcoming from the start and made the whole experience feel personal, not scripted. You could tell they genuinely enjoy what they do. The food stops were a great touch too — nothing over the top, just real, local spots that added to the experience. If you want to actually see Mexico City and not just pass through it, this is the way to do it.

San Miguel de Allende Tour from Mexico City

David_m, Mar 2026

Wonderful

What a delightful day. Weather was amazing and our guide was the best. Such a sweet girl ( I'm sorry I'm rubbish with names, but it was the girl who I was talking about york and Edinburgh to) There was a slight problem completely out of the companies hands which restricted us for a short while entering the main square around the church in san Miguel. It was open by 1.30 and it didn't affect our day so ill put this out there first . She was very informative about the town and very friendly. Many many thanks for a super day

Teotihuacan, Shrine of Guadalupe & Tlatelolco Day Tour

Lindsy_o, Dec 2025

Great

Good experience that allowed us to learn more about the history of Mexico with a small group of 10 people—not overwhelming and just enough to strike up a mix of conversations. Good blend of time together and free time to explore. Guide and driver were attentive and friendly. They impressively and seamlessly switched between English and Spanish based on the needs of the group.
