A wonderful walking tour in historic center!

Our guide, Estefania, provided an exceptional introduction to Mexico City’s rich history, spanning from the Aztec civilization and colonial period to the modern era. Her enthusiasm and meticulous attention to historical details made the experience both engaging and informative. This tour is indispensable for first-time visitors to Mexico City. Additionally, exploring the city amidst the vibrant evening lights and festive atmosphere was truly delightful. Estefania also offered excellent recommendations for restaurants and activities, greatly enhancing the beginning of our journey in Mexico City.

A must do in CDMX!!

Published on Dec, 2024

Our tour guide was Estefania and she did an amazing job of showing us the historic center of Mexico City. She was very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. We covered lots of history and architecture during the tour. The walk was not too strenuous. There was a stop in between for coffee/restroom. Overall a must do early on in your trip to get context of other tourist sites!!
