Fernando our driver who doesn’t speak English but still was able to communicate with us, came promptly to pick us up from the airport and waited for us to find where the meeting spot should be ( MEX was huge and we didn’t realize that some of the exit doors are in the second floor from the arrival area).
Despite the rain. Daniela our guide was waiting for us in the historic quarter and even bought us an umbrella to keep me and my daughter dry during this walking tour. She was able to still show us the most important highlights of the area and gave us tips on taquerias and panaderias if we ever come back to Mexico City ( which we intend to do in the very near future).
Fernando then came to pick us up from the historic quarter and safely back to the airport.
A very worthwhile tour if you have very limited time in Mexico City. ( This was an overnight layover for me and my daughter on our way home to Las Vegas from Puerto Vallarta)
If not for the rain ( which was beyond anyones control), it would have been a perfect tour!

Estefanía was an excellent and super knowledgeable guide! She took us through the historic center and explained, in detail, the 3 significant periods of the area. She took us to the best quesadilla spot in the historic center (not a touristy spot) and gave us the opportunity to make stops when we needed to or wanted. I highly recommend taking a tour with Estefanía, especially if you have a long layover.

What made us take this layover tour were the good reviews, so let me add one more! Oscar was an excellent guide with the cultural and ecological history, and the fascinating architecture of the city. You’ll certainly get your steps in, as every block trekked held so much to see. Plus, the airport pickup/return by Pepe was smooth and safely navigated. It’s definitely time well spent in a layover versus the day wasted in the airport terminal. Now we need a return trip to explore further the interesting highlights they shared, and absorb the vibrancy of this vast city.

Estephania did a wonderful job taking us around Mexico City and being flexible as my traveling partner has a bad ankle. She took us to a fantastic authentic quesadilla spot and the food was amazing. She was so knowledgeable and enthusiastic, answering our questions and engaging us with great storytelling. She went above and beyond, keeping us hydrated and checking in on my friend's ankle. We really appreciated how she was able to tailor the tour to our needs. She was funny, friendly, and full of positive energy. Highly recommend!!

I can’t recommend this tour highly enough. I received very clear meet up instructions via WhatsApp, and my driver arrived on time. I was taken down to central Mexico City where I met my guide, Daniela. Daniela was fabulous! She was a fountain of knowledge and very fun to spend the day with. I saw a mixture of historic sites, art and culture, food stops, and local culture. I was taken back to the airport in plenty of time to catch my flight.

A great opportunity to get a taste of the incredible history, art and culture of an amazing city. Ana, Fernando and Imiliano made what would have been a difficult layover an incredible experience getting us to and from the airport with no worries.

Great tour, filled all out expectations. Daniela was excellent. Definitely recommend she showed all the sites and then went out for dinner and then some shopping. Beautiful city and we couldn’t of done it without her.

Fernando and Emiliano were great guides! Fernando first picked us up from the airport to meet Emiliano in the city center. He was a lot of fun and had good insight on the city. Emiliano then gave us a tour through El Zocalo’s past through present. He was super knowledgeable, engaging and has a passion for the country’s history, culture and current events. After the tour, Fernando took us back to the airport and got us there on time despite heavy crowds and traffic. The guides were very nice, accommodating and try to base the experience on your interests. This has been one of our most favorite tour experiences! Thanks guys!

I had a 6 hour layover in Mexico City and Mexico a Pie made it happen! My driver Fernando got me where I needed to be both ways. I spent 2+ fantastic hours with Daniela learning about Aztec Culture, the history of Mexico and eating some awesome tacos. Very professional and thoughtful experience! I only had a little bit of time and of course need to come back for a full visit - but this quick tour was so much better than waiting in the airport.

I had a long layover in Mexico City, and I wanted to leave the airport but was nervous about getting lost or going to dangerous places without knowing. I saw this tour, and thought it was a bit expensive, but thought it was the best and safest way to get a quick tour of the city. After the tour, I was really happy with my decision. My driver, Fernando, and my guide, Dani, both did a tremendous job, were extremely kind, and made me feel very welcome in their city and country. I was able to eat some churros and tacos, see some sites, and experience the culture of Mexico. Dani is very knowledgeable about the city and knew great spaces to go. I would recommend this experience to anyone.
