Why choose our Mexico City private tours? Expert guides!

With hundreds of tour companies now operating in Mexico City, choosing the right guide can feel overwhelming. Here’s what sets our private tours apart —and why so many travelers interested in history, archaeology, and authentic cultural experiences choose us.

Expert Guides with Academic Credentials

While many tour operators offer friendly locals who love their city, we bring professional expertise that transforms your visit into an educational journey:

  • Licensed by INAH (Mexico’s National Institute of Anthropology and History)—the only organization that certifies tour guides for archaeological sites
  • Advanced degrees in history, archaeology, anthropology, or related fields—your guide isn’t just sharing facts, they’re trained scholars who understand the deeper context
  • Years of experience working with university study-abroad programs and discerning travelers
  • Fluent English speakers who can explain complex historical and cultural concepts clearly

Think of it as having your own walking encyclopedia—one who adapts to your pace, answers your questions in depth, and reveals the stories beyond the surface that most visitors never hear.

Our private guides are historians, archeologists, experts in the field. Here: David!

 

Authentic Experiences, No Hidden Agenda

  • No commission stops: We never take you to shops or restaurants that pay us kickbacks
  • Local perspective: Our guides live in Mexico City and share their genuine favorite spots
  • Food and drinks not included—giving you complete freedom to choose when, where, and what you want to eat or drink based on your appetite and budget. Your guide will have excellent recommendations ranging from street food gems to upscale restaurants!

Fully Customized Private Tours

Your interests drive the itinerary, not a rigid schedule:

  • Mix multiple experiences in one day: Combine a morning at the Anthropology Museum with an afternoon walking tour through a historic neighborhood, a visit to a street food market, and exploration of contemporary street art
  • Flexible pacing: Linger longer at sites that fascinate you, skip what doesn’t interest you
  • Pre-trip planning: We design your itinerary together before you arrive, ensuring every day matches your interests
  • Real-time adjustments: Changed your mind during the tour? Your guide can adapt the plan on the spot

    Beyond Standard Sightseeing

    Whether you want to understand the symbolism in Aztec art, discuss the layers of Mexican history visible in architecture, explore pre-Hispanic cosmology, or dive deep into specific topics like muralism or ancient trade routes—our guides have the knowledge to take you there.
