Top Mexico City Private Sightseeing Tours

Roberto was very passionate about the history the culture and gave us a wonderful tour of the site. His passion showed through his descriptions. Seeing my interest in local minerology he took us to a gem and mineral dealer who showed us around her shop ( on the way). Roberto grew up around the site so was very in tune with the history. It was a wonderful visit.

The tour actually went the other way around - we met up and spent about 3+ hours at the Museum, walked across the park, and then went through the castle. Our guide was informative and efficient getting us through the highlights of the expansive museum (while still more than happy to do a deep dive on any particular piece or answer any questions), and was clearly very passionate about the history he was taking us through. He also seemed to have firsthand experience with many of the archeological sites from where the exhibits were sourced, and was immediately ready to say whether pieces were originals or recreations. The museum is incredibly impressive. Then we walked through the park and climbed the hill up to the castle, where we went through the murals and exhibits and took in the excellent views of the city. Be prepared to approach this with some stamina: it was 5+ hours of being on your feet nearly constantly and you will certainly get some serious steps in, but it is very much worth it. It's a really good way to make sure you get the most out of a visit to what is likely the most famous museum in the city without needing to spend 1-2 days seeing every last piece, and the castle is just beautiful with some interesting art, artifacts, and history as well. Highly recommend.

We had a great time on this tour. We started in Xochimilco, and Sarai made sure we got the full experience — drinks and food on the boat, and she even called over a mariachi band to sing for us. It was a lot of fun. We also visited Coyoacán and the Frida Kahlo Museum, and Sarai made sure everything went smoothly even with heavier traffic than expected. She was friendly, helpful and made the whole day feel very easy and personal. We really enjoyed it and would definitely recommend the tour.

Eliezer and Álvaro were exceptional guides throughout the entire tour. They were knowledgeable, patient, and made every part of the experience enjoyable. Their explanations were clear and engaging, and they took the time to make sure everyone understood what was being presented. The translation was excellent—smooth, accurate, and very easy to follow. It helped create a comfortable environment for everyone, regardless of language. Both of them showed professionalism, kindness, and genuine care for the group, which made the tour feel even more special. I truly appreciated their effort and dedication. Highly recommended.

We took this private tour on our first day in Mexico City, and it turned out to be a really good way to start our visit. Arturo was knowledgeable and very easy to spend time with, and the tour gave us useful historical and cultural background that helped us understand the city better afterwards. What we especially appreciated was that Arturo wasn’t rigid about the itinerary. The tour actually lasted longer than originally planned, and he also took us to a few places and showed us things that weren’t part of the original plan. It felt much more personal than simply following a fixed route. Very interesting experience and a great introduction to Mexico City.

Such an amazing experience! It was a private tour for us, and our guide Oscar was super knowledgeable about the museum, the history and the stories. It’s a huge museum and can be overwhelming for visitors (esp if you don’t speak Spanish). Having a guide makes it much easier and fun. We didn’t get to cover everything in 3 hours, but we learnt a ton! Thank you Oscar.

The tour of the pyramids was the highlight of our trip to CDMX. We went on New Year's Day and had no traffic. It was basically an Uber driver who picked us up and drove us there. We got there relatively quickly (40 minutes) and met with our guide who spoke English. I sometimes had a hard time understanding him, but he was very friendly and knowledgable. The pyramids are absolutely incredible. You should not miss them. Although you cannot climb up the Pyramid of the Sun, you can on the Pyramid of the Moon, and the view is amazing. Don't miss doing that! There are a lot of vendors between the two pyramids, but not really in an annoying way. I liked some of the items they were selling and bought a magnet that I really liked and seemed like good quality. After the tour, we were taken to a restaurant where we ordered and got served the best food on our trip. The tortilla soup was probably the best I've ever had and the mole was also fantastic. My family ordered various other things and everything was delicious. Definitely go with the tour that includes the lunch. I was so happy we did that instead of the cave lunch I originally wanted. Although it would have been cool to see the cave, I cannot imagine the food being better than what we were served on this tour. Also, the cook was a lovely woman who handmade everything herself. Great experience. Don't hesitate to book this tour!

The tour is for a large group, but our guide, Alan, was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about Teotihuacan and its history, which made the tour much more engaging. I learned so much throughout the experience. I highly recommend the early access, as it gets very crowded later in the day.
