Top Mexico City Private Sightseeing Tours

Sarai is totally delightful and very knowledgeable. We especially loved our boat ride at Xochimilco -- so calm and relaxing after the hour-long drive through crazy Mexico City traffic! Also was a really good thing to start early in the morning while it was still a little cool. Coyohuacan is charming, and I could definitely spend more time there. The Blue House gives a good idea of what Frida's (and Diego's) life was like, although it was quite crowded and difficult to see all the exhibits due to other tourists blocking the way.

Roberto was a fabulous tour guide! We planned a 3 hour custom tour. Communications prior to our tour date with him was very strong. He proactively reached out several times and was extremely responsive. He also met us at our hotel. We had previously told him (via WhatsApp) what we were interested in seeing to ensure that it was part of his plan. We went to historic downtown and from the moment we met him, we knew the experience would be terrific, especially with his anthropology background and expertise! We learned so much about Mexico’s past and present and Mexico City itself. We loved the fact that our conversation with him was engaging throughout, covering a wide range of topics spanning history. He took us to several notable buildings, landmark locations, historical sites, museums, church/cathedral, and of course city center. He was flexible, accommodating, super pleasant and extremely professional. In fact, we enjoyed our time so much together that after our tour was over, we invited him to join us for lunch! Would highly recommend this experience - and ask for Roberto!!!

Great tour of Teotihuacan and Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe including delicious lunch. Our tour guide Veronica was fantastic. She spent the entire time providing us a history of the sites, details of cultural significance, tips for viewing, and lots of help with a 102-year old family member.

This tour covered a huge amount of history and culture in a single day. Our guide, Lily, was a font of knowledge and very organized, despite the challenges of a large and diverse group of people! We managed to see an Aztec archeological site, the Guadalupe Bascilica, learn about obsidian and local liquors along with local culture, shop, have a Mexican buffet, and a full visit to Teotihuacan and were still back in Mexico City by 5:30. Highly recommended

Our walking tour was the perfect first experience to get us acclimated to the city. It was a great overview of the Zocalo. Aris was very knowledgeable and thorough. I enjoyed the sites and the history and took note of where I wanted to explore further.

An amazing trip. Alan and Hector were wonderful, bilingual, guides, switching effortlessly between English and Spanish. They were kind and attentive throughout the day. The university visit was fascinating and then the trip to Cocoyan steadily paced so we reached the Frida Kahlo museum in good time. Casa Azul was a dream. Cocoyan was fabulous , just wish we had had longer there as I had to race round the market and barely saw the area after the museum. Xochimilco was special too. Obviously hugely busy and touristy but that doesn’t take away from the sheer joy of colourful boats, people offering food and drink on neighbouring boats, seeing mariachi bands & a tiny piglet as well as a heron & a man with a huge snake wrapped round his body. Wild. Highly recommend this trip.

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!

Highly recommend this with the early start. Its well worth it when you see the bus loads of people arriving as you leave. If anything, even earlier is better because it can get really hot. The guide was okay. Note that afterwards you are taken to tequila & mescal tasting and where you can buy souvenir, the vendors are nice and not too pushy. So glad i went.
