Hey there, I'm Alex, your go-to guy in Mexico City! Picture this: you're strolling through a neighborhood with humble little houses, then BAM—one block later, you're surrounded by high-end malls. That's the magic of this city, and I can't get enough of it! Whether it's hunting down the best coffee shops or diving into global cuisines, I'm all about the flavors and vibes of Mexico City. And when I'm not eating (which is rare), you'll find me exploring the city on my trusty bicycle. I know the nooks and crannies of Coyoacán like the back of my hand, especially those hidden gems that whisper tales of the past. So if you're into spicy food, spicy stories, and a little adventure off the beaten path, I'm your guy! Looking forward to a great adventure with you!

My reviews

All around great person. We both had an amazing time. We had a few private tour experiences in CDMX but this was by far our favorite.

An altogether delightful experience, and a great overview for first time visitors. Alex went above and beyond to teach us about a city he feels passionate about.

Alex was awesome….his stories were great. It was Day of the Dead and he showed us the plaza where we enjoyed people watching.
