Hi! I’m Juan, a certified tour guide with Mexico’s Ministry of Tourism and a graduate in English Teaching from the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM). I was born and raised in Mexico City, and I’ve spent my whole life in this lively, fascinating place. After several years as an English teacher, I met a student who had been a tour guide for many years. He saw my passion for Mexican history and suggested I try guiding tours—and he was right! Not long after earning my certification, I realized that guiding had become my true calling. I love sharing Mexico through my eyes, helping visitors return home with unforgettable memories, and, of course, fantastic photos (I also enjoy photography and know the best spots for great shots!). My goal is for you to enjoy Mexico City safely, at your own pace, with a trip tailored to your interests. Feel free to reach out so we can customize your experience in CDMX whether before you arrive or even during your stay. I look forward to showing you the best of what this incredible city has to offer. Get ready for an unforgettable adventure! - Certified tour guide by the Ministry of Tourism in Mexico (SECTUR) - Degree in English Teaching from the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) For groups of more than 4 people (or those who prefer extra comfort), I can arrange a spacious Toyota Sienna or similar vehicle with a professional driver, available for an additional fee.

Overview of your Mexico City tour

The tour is designed to make sure you visit all the highlights of the place without having to walk long distances (the Avenue of the Dead is 2. 5km long) We will start at the museum, where I will provide more context about this marvelous ancient city. We will visit the majestic Pyramid of the Sun, and afterward, we will walk along the Avenue of the Dead to reach the Temple of the Moon. Throughout the journey, we will see a magnificent mural of a puma that is nearly 2000 years old! Later, we will arrive at the residential area where the Teotihuacan elite lived. At this point, I will walk back to the car while you explore the Palace of Quetzalpapalotl. In this area, you can take a break and capture many photographs from the viewpoint. I will pick you up in our car, and we'll head straight to the Citadel (saving more than 40 minutes) to visit the Temple of Quetzalcoatl (my favorite!) We will have the option of a lunch break, and we will conclude the day at the Basilica of Guadalupe.
