Great visit to understand history of Mexico

Anna_O, Mar 2026

The visit to the park and castle was great. Very knowledgeable and interesting guide helped choose from a massive amount of information and artifacts to see. He presented a comprehensive story line including all major events and explaining dependencies. If I could do it again I would start with Chatapultec followed by the Museum of Anthropology. That way all things you see fall in place. Strongly recommend

The early morning trip to...

Tami_S, Feb 2026

The early morning trip to Teotihuacan was absolutely worthwhile - the bus trip alone justified the cost. Ernesto was a terrific guide; energetic and gave lots of info in rapid fire English and Spanish.

Great tour full of...

Great way to start your vacation in CDMX

Gokce_S, Sep 2024

I booked this tour with my mom and girlfriend as our intro into the city. We were very impressed with how professional and informative the tour was. Would highly recommend taking this tour. Our guide was Jorge and he was incredibly knowledgeable and personable. This was a wonderful was to start out vacation and would definitely do another tour with Jorge when we eventually return.

THE GUIDE HAS NO SHOWED UP , VERY BAD EXPERIENCE

Dayana_D, Jul 2024

Unfortunately a very bad experience as the guide has not showed up, I have tried to contact agency sending several messages and did not receive any answer. I had done The tour alone, and want my money back.

The tour itself was good...

Tim_G, Mar 2024

The tour itself was good and the guide was knowledgeable. He was also 45 minutes late for our party of 9, which was very frustrating.
