An art deco extravaganza - Loved all the art deco buildings and a visit to the newly opened Secretariat of education building with their abundance of Diego Rivera murals. Also toured the Palacio de Belles Artes which is my favorite building in Mexico City. I was surprised that it was a private tour for just me and the guide catered it to my interests

Nice to meet you - The center of CDMX has many places to visit and many activities to do alone or in the company of someone. Saturdays and Sundays there are a lot of people, so I recommend going during the week.

Meet Me At The Flagpole - Our guide Juan Carlos gave us the perfect tour of historical Mexico City. We walked around and viewed the art and architecture from Spain up until modern times. His friend Marco drove us to another part of the city to learn about the ruins of Tlatelolco. At the end of the day after sight seeing and learning they made sure we got back to our hotel safely.

There was no tour or guide on the ligaments, just walk - Our guide was very friendly and friendly. Plus we were lucky enough that we were only 2 people. But it was poor as a tour guide, we expected a little more explanation about the monuments and history of the historic center and the truth was rather a walk with visit to the government house and walk through the places, but without a historical guide proper about the places or points of interest. Our pickup was quite late, but that was no problem for us, but if we were only in central Mexico at 11:30 in the morning when the sun could not be stronger, when it should have started at 10. I think they improvised with us a little bit.

Great customer service but average tour - I should preface this review with the fact that we had originally organized it for a Sunday and it happened to be the celebration for the president so we had to reschedule for another day and due to our schedule we had to shorten it. The customer service was great and communication was very good as well. That said here’s the good points - the historical downtown has amazing architecture, the buildings are in fairly close so you can get a great deal done in a short period of time, the guide did her best to accommodate our 4 hour schedule and she was very nice and even gave us a little key chain as a thank you gift. She was not as prepared as other guides we have had on past tours, that’s why I’m saying it’s an average tour. I’m sure if you do a little research and tell the guide ahead of time what you are most interested in, they will give you a great experience.

Bad experience - No one just showed up to make the visit. We arrived 10 minutes in advance on site. We searched at various points and nothing. I sent several messages before and during the booking time and tb I had no return. I am waiting for refund
