Nic showed us everything we asked for and then some. Our expectations have been exceeded. We are spending relatively short amount of time in Mexico City and he showed us some sights of the beaten path in addition to several major attractions. Both my wife and I really enjoyed the experience.

The pre-tour experience of planning what we wanted to do was efficiently and smoothly done, and gave us great confidence that the trip would be very enjoyable - we weren’t disappointed. Once booked and Adriana was allocated to us as our guide, she emailed us to enquire as to the sorts of things we wanted to do, our interests etc. She then compiled a draft itinerary which she sent to us in advance which looked great, and she’d clearly paid attention to what we’d asked to do, and put in the time planning our day. Having swapped mobile numbers we also had a few other WhatsApp messages from her ahead of our tour reconfirming meeting times etc. On the day Adriana was prompt, polite and really informative as she took us around areas of Mexico City which we’d never have discovered on our own (our high level brief was that whilst we would like to see some of the main sights, we wanted to get a feel for the “real” Mexico City its people, history, culture and food). We always felt safe, and learnt so much from her during our tour. We packed loads in, but it never felt rushed or too much. SHe’d incorporated options to eat / drink on the way, as well as toilet stops, and nothing felt like too much trouble for her. This was a perfect way for us to spend our first day in Mexico City, and gave us a brilliant introduction to this vibrant city.
