Itinerary

Begin your walking tour in central Mexico City with visits to major landmarks that are easier to understand with a guide than on your own. Start near the Palace of Fine Arts, one of the city's most important cultural venues, then continue to the Postal Palace and along Calle Madero, where your guide explains the history behind buildings such as the House of Tiles and a former Franciscan convent.

Continue to the Zocalo to see the National Palace and Metropolitan Cathedral—a key example of Spanish colonial architecture. Walk to the Templo Mayor ruins, viewing the remains from the outside while learning how the former Aztec ceremonial center fits into the citys layered history.

The experience finishes at the Torre Latinoamericana, a central landmark that long held the title of the tallest building in Mexico City. Learn about its construction and significance before deciding how to continue your visit.

If you select the option with viewpoint access, you have free time at the end of the tour to go up independently and take in panoramic views over the city from the observation level.

Tour of mexico city...

Louis_C, Jun 2026
TOUR OF MEXICO CITY CENTER AND ZOCALO We thoroughly enjoyed our walking tour of the Zócalo and Torre Latinoamericana with Alexa. Alexa is an exceptionally knowledgeable guide, and her English is excellent. She provided a comprehensive and engaging introduction to the historic heart of Mexico City, helping us understand not only the significance of the Zócalo itself but also the many layers of history that have shaped this remarkable area over the centuries. As we walked through the city center, Alexa pointed out numerous sites of historical and cultural importance, explaining how they fit into the broader story of Mexico City’s development. Her ability to connect events, places, and people made the history come alive and gave us a much deeper appreciation for the area than we would have gained exploring on our own. We especially appreciated her flexibility and professionalism. She thoughtfully adapted the route to accommodate local circumstances, including closures related to preparations for the upcoming World Cup, while ensuring that we still experienced all of the highlights. The tour was very well paced and kept both adults and teenagers engaged throughout. The evening concluded with a visit to the Torre Latinoamericana, where we enjoyed spectacular nighttime views of Mexico City. Seeing the city illuminated from above was the perfect ending to an excellent tour. Alexa combines historical knowledge, clear communication, and genuine enthusiasm in a way that makes learning enjoyable. We highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a deeper understanding of Mexico City’s history and culture.

Book it!

Heart of the city insight

Rizwan_K, Dec 2024
We enjoyed our nighttime walk and really appreciated the sights and sounds of the heart of Mexico City. Carlos was an informative guide who worked hard to keep both language groups engaged!

Rainy but beautiful — Alexa is the best!

Pallavi_R, May 2024
Our second booking with Amigo tours and our second time getting Alexa — she is the best!! Not only does she carry photos, a whiteboard, historical info galore, she is the most inventive & hilarious storyteller with the most delightful details. We had a bad thunderstorm JUST as we began but it did not deter her enthusiasm or commitment. We walked through the rain to every location and truly enjoyed her narration. You wont regret the tour anyway but if you get Alexa, consider it a lottery win!

Response from Host, May 2024

Dear Pallavi_R, Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful experience with Alexa and Amigo Tours! We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your second tour as much as your first. We appreciate your kind words and look forward to welcoming you on another adventure soon. Kind regards from the entire quality team at Amigo Tours. Chelsea

Excellent informative tour! 5*

Martin_B, May 2024
Had a great experience with Bernardo! The history and architecturale information was excellent. Although it was an english tour, it was a nice surprise that he was also fluent in French as we were. Merci beaucoup!

Response from Host, May 2024

Dear Martin_B, Thank you for sharing your experience with Bernardo! It's wonderful that his fluency in English and French added to your experience. We appreciate your feedback and look forward to welcoming you back on another tour soon. Best regards from the entire quality team at Amigo Tours. Chelsea

Not recommended, worst guides ever.

RamiroArturo_H, Jun 2023
Tour itself it’s good, for the places we visited. guides were terrible, there were two guides a she and a he, they were in a hurry all the time, playing dumb jokes to themselfs, irresponsible and disrespectful, not taking the tour serious. Didn’t even let me take pictures, and at the end just throw me at torre latino without saying a thing. Hated this tour.

Response from Host, Jun 2023

Dear RamiroArturo_H We are very sorry to know that the experience was not what you expected. We will take your comments into account to improve our services. Mariana, Amigo tours

Foul play by comapny and lazy guide

Elijah_R, Mar 2023
The guide had no contact with me and I ended up not being able to even do the tour. It was a scam. I gave my number on Whatsapp and they had absolutely no contact. I was expected to locate the guide in the middle of a park with hundreds of people and the landmark given was essentially useless

Response from Host, Mar 2023

Dear Elijah_R, we are really sorry to know you couldn't enjoy the activity, we have investigated your case and we see that our team in charge of the logistics of the tour sent you the confirmation of the tour with the address attached to it, we can not share the contact number of the guide, although we shared the number of our partners in operations so they can point you in the right direction, in this case, you can contact your agency to follow up on your case. Ivana, Amigo Tours

Avoid! Don’t waste your time.

Dario_I, Dec 2022
Nobody showed up, we waited from 5:45pm until 6:18pm. When we contacted the tour guide nobody answered, they then later responded stating we had cancelled the tour, which was not true, if we had cancelled the tour wouldn’t still be active and I wouldn’t be able to write this review. I looked them up on Google and not surprised this company has bad reviews. Very unreliable.

Response from Host, Dec 2022

Amig@ Dario_I We are very sorry for what we experienced, we will verify what happened with the operational team to find out what happened, we are very sorry, and we will stay in touch to review your case. Dulce, Amigo Tours

Great opportunity to see the Zocolo

Kevin_S, Dec 2022
Very informative and neat to see all the hidden history in and around the Zocolo. Our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly.

Response from Host, Dec 2022

Dear Kevin_S, we are very happy to know that you have enjoyed the tour alongside our dear colleagues. Have a great day! Ivana, Amigo Tours

Average experience

Dan_L, Oct 2022
Was ok. Probably something I could have done on my own. Brief history of a handful of historic buildings.

Response from Host, Oct 2022

Dear Dan_L, we are sorry you did not quite enjoy the tour. We were really happy to share this with you though, have a great week! Ivana, Amigo Tours

Fun night tour - perfect for solo travelers!

Bianca_R, Mar 2022
Our tour guide was Edith — she was friendly and knowledgeable. I enjoyed walking around the city at night and learning about the history behind these buildings. As a solo traveler I felt very safe and enjoyed myself. Highly recommend!

Response from Host, Apr 2022

Monica_R, Mar 2018
Our guide was Emanuel with Amigo Tours and he was wonderful! We had a mixed English/Spanish speaking group and he switched between the 2 languages very easily. He was enthusiastic and engaging. It was a great overview for my first night in the city. I was a solo female traveler and I felt safe with the group. Thank you, Emanuel!

My guide was Alejandro and he was fantastic! He was knowledgeable and as a solo traveler, I felt safe. By the end of my tour I felt that I truly understood the culture and history of Mexico City. Great tour!

¡Alerta de estafa! No reserven con esta empresa

Meagan_G, Jan 2025
Esta empresa es una total estafa. Todo nuestro grupo, excepto dos personas, llegó a tiempo, pero no pudimos encontrar el punto de encuentro. Las instrucciones eran absurdamente vagas, simplemente decían "detrás del museo," lo cual no tiene sentido tratándose de un museo enorme en el centro de la ciudad durante Año Nuevo. Les enviamos múltiples mensajes por Viator, pero nunca respondieron. También llamamos varias veces a su oficina, pero nadie contestó. Después de 15 minutos, logramos comunicarnos con alguien, pero se negaron a darnos un punto de encuentro claro. Dijeron que el guía había esperado 10 minutos y se había ido. Luego nos dijeron que contactáramos a Viator y nos colgaron. Viator tampoco nos ayudó, afirmando que el guía había esperado 20 minutos. Estamos seguros de que éramos el único grupo reservado ese día y que cancelaron porque la zona estaba muy ocupada y caótica. Tenemos capturas de pantalla de todas las mentiras que nos dijeron y vamos a reportar el cargo como fraude con nuestra tarjeta de crédito. Eviten esta empresa a toda costa.

Buen viaje

MaraLorena_A, Jul 2022
Excelente la información y bien aprovechado el tiempo. Muy amable y paciente el guía Alejandro. Recomiendo visitar el mirador de la Torre Latinoamericana.

Response from Host, Jul 2022

Querid@ Amig@ MaraLorena_A Muchas gracias por tu participación, el mirador de la Torre Latinoamericana es increíble y es una clasica mirada de la ciudad que no se puede dejar pasar. Agradecemos mucho tu confianza. Dulce, Amigo Tours
