Average tour. Saw a couple sites of ruins and went inside a cathedral with some decent info from the guide. Rest of the tour was largely spent walking past various cafes and shops that were ~recommended~ by the tour guide... also went inside a department store to observe the roof. If there are similar or cheaper tours available, I'd consider looking into those first as this was one of the less interesting walking tours I've been on, though the rest of the group seemed to have a good experience.
Mexico City, Sandra’s edition.
2025-05-08
Sandra was exceptionally knowledgeable on every aspect Mexico’s history. She started off the tour by welcoming and introducing everyone to each other and made it very clear that questions were encouraged and welcomed. I have been to Mexico City before but I never realized how much history is built into every corner of the city. As a Mexican American, I gained a new found appreciation and understanding of my country and I wish for everyone to experience it. Book Sandra, she isn’t just a guide, she is a reflection of what our country has to offer, an incredibly knowledgeable and talented individual who is making our country better through her wisdom and understanding of our nation’s history. Very thankful for the tour and for her dedication.
Good experience

Very interesting and informative. It was rather warm though and one had to walk a bit. I do wish that the palace Bella de artes could have been covered in more depth.
