Miguel & Ricardo were... - Miguel & Ricardo were great. Lots of great information was shared with us. We made one stop for a super quick overview and tasting of alcohol. Which was perfect for us because we didn’t want the tourist selling stop. They accommodated are requests. I would definitely recommend this tour and guides.

Best way to spend a day in CDMX - Miguel and Ricardo were excellent guides and gave us a very memorable Christmas. When we were originally looking to book an activity we saw so many of these similar guided group tours, but we are so glad we decided to go for a private VIP tour with Miguel. This offered our small group of 3 a lot more freedom and flexibility with how much time we wanted to spend at each place and more time to ask questions etc. They also helped take all our photos and videos. The van was spacious and Miguel drove very comfortably to avoid any harsh road conditions. There were also umbrellas provided because there is no shade at all when you get to the ruins. Thank you for a great experience!

Exceeded Expectations! - We were fortunate to find Miguel, with Father and Son Tours, who provided an in depth tour of Teotihuacán and the Basilica. He took care of all of the details related to our tour, and was a wealth of knowledge. We travelled with our 2 teenagers, who remained fully engaged with the information that Miguel shared. We had such a positive experience that we booked Miguel for a tour of Coyoacán and Xochimilco. We will not hesitate to reach out to Miguel the next time we visit CDMX.

Private tour I recommend - A super private tour, we loved it! We went in January, I think it was because of our Airbnb that we found your card. Super punctual and accommodated us to the schedule we wanted. The very friendly Guide and Driver, experts in the history of the city and the pyramids. Next visit anyway we will be contacting you 😀. Super recommended!

Excellent experience. - An excellent family business, from the beginning they make you feel at home. Miguel (father), Miguel (son) and Don Roberto are extraordinary people, with exquisite knowledge about their culture. I recommend 100%. We tour Teotihuacan, Xochimilco and Taxco. They also provide Airport-Hotel-Airport pick-up service. Service 20/10.
