Hi! Welcome to one of the greatest cities in the world. Let me show you around. I'm a history and anthropology enthusiast, an art and culture expert, writer, amateur photographer, food scientis and professional brewer, born and raised in Mexico City. I've been exploring the city since I was a little kid, I know its ins and outs, the classic landmarks, and the hidden secrets. I would love to share all of this with you. I've lived in various cities both in and outside Mexico, so whenever I came back, I would take some friends with me and show them around. I loved doing it, so I decided to train myself and research extensively in order to offer the best tours I could. I won't lie, this city is a monster, and as any monster can be kind of intimidating, but if you are kind and patient, with a little bit of help (hopefully my help), the monster will open up and show you the magic that's hiding in plain sight, in the middle of the chaos. Feel free to contact me in order to customize a tour to your interests and needs. I'll tailor something so you can move around as if you've lived here all your life.

Overview of your Mexico City tour

If you only have one day to see the city, or you would like a general overview of it in order to give you ideas of what to see on your own, this tour is for you. We will go all around the city mainly by car, only stepping out at the main square and for photos. We will also go into the Cuicuilco archeological site where you will be able to climb the pyramid (Note. Cuicuilco is closed on Mondays) I've included the city's main landmarks, but if you want to visit another one just send me a message and I will include it.

Diego was simply excellent. We did two all-day tours with him -- "Private tour to Teotihuacan" and "Explore Mexico City Essentials". We wanted tours that would provide as much historical knowledge as possible, and both of Diego's tours greatly exceeded expectations. Diego has deep historical knowledge and provided deep, thoughtful answers to whatever questions we had (some of which were rather random). Diego clearly put significant thought into his tour design, where his storytelling builds step by step throughout the day. We have been disappointed by other ToursByLocal experiences (e.g., a Yucatan tour). You won't be disappointed with any tour you take with Diego.

Diego was an outstanding guide! He showed us so many hidden gems in Mexico City, and his kindness, knowledge, and incredible storytelling made the experience truly memorable. I’ll definitely reach out for another tour the next time I visit!

This was a truly fabulous day with Diego. He made it so interesting and tailored the pace to us perfectly. He is a master story teller captivating us with his account of the history of Mexico City as he took us to the historic centre and the very early settlements in the south of the city. His knowledge of the city is huge and brings to life the areas we passed through with ease and great skill. I cannot imagine a better guide to introduce you to the City and take you deep into the history in a very accessible and enjoyable way. This was a perfect way for us to get an understanding of the city and Mexico, in the one day we had in the city. We are so happy we chose to spend this day with Diego on this tour.

To put in simply Diego was way beyond expectations. His attention to detail and dedication to us meant we really were able to get loads out of Mexico City and in fact the history of Mexico. He is beyond a tour and more of a story teller. He took us everywhere we wanted to go and more. He took us to excellent local restaurants and much more. We totally enjoyed our time with him and cannot recommend high enough. He simply won’t let you down.

I had a wonderful time spending the day with Diego touring Mexico City's historic center, Xochimilco, and Coyoacan. I would recommend his tour (or any other tour he offers) to anyone visiting Mexico City. I hope to take another tour with him next time I'm able to travel to Mexico City.

Diego is a super guide combining knowledge and an ability to turn facts into memorable narratives. Very pleasant manner and goes the extra mile to make your tour unforgettable. Highly recommended.
