For our first visit to Mexico City, we were looking for a walking tour to give us an orientation to the city on our first day. Nico was our tour guide and he delivered! He met us near our hotel in Reforma and we explored the Centro Historica. He is super positive, friendly and knowledgeable. We enjoyed spending the day with him and learned so much in a short period of time. He gave us just the right amount of information about history and culture without overwhelming us as he showed us around so many key sights and took us to a few locals places to grab a snack and lunch. Highly recommend! Suggest 4-5 hours as there is a lot to cover so you can go at a relaxed pace and have time to stop for a snack and grab a bite to eat.

We did a tour with Nicolas on Saturday, 10/12, and from the moment we booked, his incredible hospitality and fun energy shone through. He connected with us on WhatsApp and instantly made us feel like we had a friend in Mexico City. The tour started at 8 am in Roma Norte, and Nicolas expertly guided us through the city at a comfortable pace, offering great commentary and plenty of laughs along the way. He took us to his favorite coffee and lunch spots, shared fascinating insights about the area, and even provided helpful tips before and after the tour to ensure we made the most of our time in CDMX. My girlfriend and I are so grateful for the memorable experience, and we can't recommend Nicolas enough. We will absolutely book with him again when we return to Mexico City. He's truly the best Colombian tour guide in Mexico :D !

Nico was a great guide and so much fun to be around. We all loved the joints we visited, and the food was absolutely delicious. Book this tour. You'll get to know a lot of the city and try authentic -not touristy- real Mexican food.
