From the expansive bustling Zócalo on the ruins of the Templo Mayor, to the soaring skyscrapers of the Paseo de la Reforma, purple jacaranda-lined avenues, art and anthropology museums, Belle Epoque architecture of the Postal Palace and Palace of Fine Arts, local churrerias, pulquerias, and taquerias, and of course the impressive hilltop views from Chapultepec Palace, this tour gives you the full cultural and aesthetic experience of CDMX along with a aerobic workout. José is an outgoing, knowledgeable tour guide with fluent English and a passion for history. If you only have a brief time in CDMX, this tour is the perfect way to experience the soul of the city.

Where do I start!! Never in my life have I experienced such a unique roller coaster of emotions. I basically felt like a little kid free to roam around and explore! This was my very first time in Mexico city and wont be my last thats forsure!! Haha the view, the people, the FOOD and the art etc was a breathtaking experience. Site seeing was an amazing experience theres SO much to do. As we had our days planned and arranged for Mr.Jose to guide us. The comfortable of having our experienced trip advisor Mr. Jose navigate us around was a very comforting experience. 👏 he was very professional, attentive to us all and was very great at elaborating the history of each site we visited. I definitely recommend taking Mr. Jose as an advisor because you don't have to worry about finding a ride. Your entire group joining can fit in one ride together and return together and safe! We had nothing but good laughs and learned so much of Mexico city! I'm definitely ready to return and experience more! Thank you Mr. Jose for making mexcio city an experience of a life time!

I had the best time. The tour guide Jose was amazing. Very knowledgeable, polite, on time and acknowledge. He also accommodated me in my personal needs. Mexico City is beautiful and he brought it to life. I do recommend.

We used touring Mexico City for 2 days during February: the first to visit Cholula and Puebla, the second for the butterfly experience at Cerro Pelon. On our first day, to Cholula and Puebla, we found at the last minute that our driver would be Rafael – whom we did not know. A moment of concern – but he actually turned out to be excellent for the trip, was knowledgeable, calm, an excellent driver and allowed us to 'do our own thing' in the two centres. The second day was the Cerro Pelon butterfly tour. Having researched, I was pleased that we had found what, to us, was the best solution. The Cerro Pelon area is not overwhelmed with tourists the way the others are. There is an opportunity to help the local people a little with our business at the same time as having a great trip up a beautiful mountain to experience the Monarchs. Jose's 'package' included all costs (although we added some tips) and details, so we knew exactly what we were letting ourselves in for. It probably worked out cheaper than going on a bus tour (2 of us) or trying a DIY, which would have meant spending the night somewhere else. Having some doubts about the altitude, without time to acclimatise, we rode the horses some of the way. However, eventually we decided to give them a rest, walked the remainder to the top and down the other side. So, although this area is said to be more 'challenging' it was not too much of a problem with equine help, as long as you can manage rough walking at 3,000-3,500 metres. (Both of us aged over 70 but experienced mountain walkers.) Jose was excellent, walked all the way to the top himself and had clearly done the tour many times before. Overwhelmingly the experience was brilliant, but with the small caveat that Jose's administrative skills were not the best. We weren't absolutely sure until the last minute that all would go well, as he's often away driving, there was some delay in getting details organised and he was difficult to contact if you didn't have a phone which worked in Mexico. However, all went well for us in the end. You probably don't have to worry if you have that experience, too. Highly recommended.

José was fantastic. He put together a great customized itinerary for us, from the culturally significant, to happening restaurants and bars - all over a very busy dia de los muertos holiday season. José was friendly, knowledgeable, professional, adaptable, and really cared about the experience that his group was having. He went above and beyond several times to make sure that we got the experience we were looking for, and was very responsive to our requests and inquiries. Our experience was tailored and unique, and our trip to Mexico City and Tepoztlan wouldn’t have been possible (or nearly as fun) without him. When we go back, he will be our first call! Adam

Have used Touring Mexico City twice and have been very satisfied. We were never rushed, we were taken to all the places I wanted to visit and felt comfortable we had two male guides with us explaining what was safe at what time. We ate at the best spots couldn't ask for anything more. I will always use them in the future .

I cannot say enough about Jose’s tours. My wife, son, and I wanted to visit Mexico City but all we were certain about was visiting the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe. Jose fleshed out the rest of our 4 day visit with exceptional tours of sites of cultural, artistic, historic, ecological, and religious significance. Every place Jose took us to was amazing. Furthermore it was an all inclusive experience for a set, very reasonable price: airport pick up/drop off, tickets to attractions, transportation, and historical and cultural interpretation at the attractions. No surprises; what he says he’s going to do, he does, for the price he said he was going to do it for. However, the best part of our experience was to hang out with Jose as he took us to “his” Mexico City: the insider’s tour of the city, so to speak. We went to his favorite spots to experience some things tourists don’t get to with a hotel sponsored tour: craft and food markets, cafes, pastry shops, tequila bars, pulque bars, etc., safely and securely. If you want to do something different, just ask and Jose will show you the real Mexico City! Jose was more than a tour guide, he became our friend.

I had the pleasure of touring Mexico City and the surrounding area with Jose on 2 separate occasions! What an incredible time I had exploring with Jose in Mexico city! From museums to parks and many street food stands and coffee shops! We also ventured outside the city to Teotihuacan pyramids and to the city of Puebla. Jose will taylor the tour to your needs and wants. He speaks great English and is a pleasure to be around. If you are thinking of touring in and around Mexico City I highly recommend Jose and his tour company.

My family of four visited Mexico City. Unfortunately, none of us speak Spanish. I searched for a tour guide to take us to the pyramids as well as show us Mexico City. Jose took us around all of these places and gave us a lot of information. He was willing to take us to places that we had not heard about as well as take us to restaurants to enhance our enjoyment of our trip. I highly recommend this tour group. I have even referred other family members to Jose.

My family with two kids went with Jose and Touring Mexico City for three days to various locations around Mexico City for Day of the Dead / Dia de los Muertos festivities and had a great time. Jose made the experience safe, entertaining, and education at the same time and took us to places that would be very difficult for tourists to go without a local guide, especially during the festivities. I highly recommend Jose and Touring Mexico City.

Last March we had the opportunity to travel to Mexico City. We found Touring Mexico City thru Facebook. Jose was our driver and guide and was excellent. We hired him for the full five days that we were in Mexico City. He was punctual when picking us up everyday and was very friendly. We were able to visit so many places by having Jose with us. We highly recommend him and we will definitely use him again when we go back to Mexico. He had great suggestions for places in The city that we hadn’t planned on visiting. To us, there is just no other way to visit such a big city without a private driver.
