HOLA! Welcome to Mexico City that once was called the City of Palaces! and still remains so. . . Many people believe that one of the best ways to get to know a place is one of the easiest - JUST WALK AROUND IT! Yes, Mexico City is huge , walkable and still unknown in many aspects by foreigners and even locals. As a Mexico City born I know the ways to get around the city and I have been working as tour guide since 2007 with people from all over the world and in different languages: English, French, German and of course Spanish. Also I have designed itineraries for visitors travelling on business or for pleasure. Having traveled to 30 countries in 4 continents becoming also a TRAVELER . I am one of very few CERTIFIED tour guides by The Mexican ministry of Tourism that is also a SOMMELIER (wine professional).

Overview of your Mexico City tour

You will experience a traditional market beyond tourist path in a very beautiful and quiet neighbourhood either in Tlalpan or San Angel where most tourist visit only its Saturday market. A visit to National University campus is also a great opportunity not only to admire its architecture but also see how peaceful its campus can be with its natural reserve and impressive and modern cultural center or and I am sure that you will love the boat ride in Xochimilco and eating some corn, a snack or some beers, and even visit a Chinampa ! Visit neighborhoods that are often ignored by visitors like National university campus, Tlalpan and a highlight of Mexico city: magnificent floating gardens of Xochimilco with all Mexican folklore.
