Our private walking tour with Lando was exceptional!! His knowledge of his beloved city, his friendliness, and his enthusiasm for our questions made this one of our top rated tours we have ever taken in any city around the world.

The Half-day city tour was perfect for getting familiar with the central area of Mexico City and our guide Lando was extremely knowledgeable about all of the history of the city, the buildings, the restaurants and has many unique sights to see. Highly recommend this excellent tour and guide!

We thoroughly enjoyed our 4 hour tour with Lando who brings a wealth of historic knowledge to the experience. He knows everything from the ancient pre-Spanish cultures through the. Colonial period and the establishment of the republic. We also enjoyed the many hidden gems he showed us along the route and will be going back to explore more of this area in future days. A truly memorable and worthwhile experience.

Lando was superb. Local, knowledgeable and a great spirit. He planned a simple itinerary (per our request) to accommodate our family - age ranges 10 to 84. We walked, learned and (ate our way through the neighborhoods) as Lando pointed our history and places we should try tacos or have a coffee. Highly recommended!
