Do not book this tour! I am extremely disappointed with this tour service. We arrived on time and waited at the exact location (a pin on Google Maps was provided in their confirmation email). When Daniel didn't show up after 15 minutes, I began messaging the tour operator but received no response. We waited for a total of 45 minutes, yet there was absolutely no correspondence from the company.

Despite trying to contact them several times using the numbers provided both by the tour company and Viator customer service, I received no response. When I asked for a refund, Viator informed me that the tour operator claimed they never received my contact number, but I was never asked for one in the first place. They only sent me a confirmation email. In lieu of a refund, I asked to reschedule the tour, but I still received no response.

This tour service is a scam, and I strongly advise against using them. Save yourself the frustration and avoid this company at all costs.

Mariel was a great tour guide and given her background, knew a lot about everything. One of the monuments she wanted to show us was closed for some reason but she managed to show us quite bit other than that. We loved the walking tour with Mariel because we got to see the city and some of its historical places with information that we might not have learned otherwise. Would definitely recommend Mariel to anyone interested in a fun, informative 3 hours.

We had a really great day with Daniel who took us to some really beautiful and fascinating spots in Mexico City's historic centre; places we would never have found ourselves and which it would have been a shame to miss. Daniel's relaxed but informative style suited us well. He carefully tailored his tour to take into account the exceptionally hot weather and made sure we were comfortable at all times and not bored for a moment. His love for the City was really infectious and we can't wait to return. We would definitely use him again on another visit.

Mariel was so great! For starters, we really underestimated the traffic in Mexico City so we were a little late for our tour. Mariel was so gracious and still showed us a great time. She was so knowledgeable about the history of Mexico City, especially with regard to the indigenous people. We also stopped at a taco place that was amazing - best taco we had in Mexico City. 10/10 would recommend, especially for first timers or history buffs!

Absolutely enjoyed the walking tour with Mariel. She was friendly, and gave a good backstory, history to all the areas that we walked to along with some fun trivia. She was very informed about the historic importance of each building and that was helpful when visiting as a first timer. Would recommend her if anyone is visiting the Historic district in Mexico City for the first time.

We had a great time with Daniel- he was so knowledgeable and fun - he’s very chill and sweet and made sure that we had a good experience - he allowed lots of time for us to duck into wherever we wanted and the trip to the market with him was exceptional - our Spanish is minimal and he explained all the different foods and dishes - we stopped for coffee as well- a relaxed and fun way to see the highlights with a pro like Daniel !

Mariel, was a very passionate and extremely knowledgeable guide whose passion for her country was very evident in the way she shared the info on the tour. It was interesting how she was able to bring in all the socio economic, cultural,and political of the history of Mexico. A very warm and personable guide. We would have missed out on understanding the true workings of the city. A tour with Mariel is a must when visiting the city. Thanks to the informative tour, we enjoyed and were able to interpret the Ballet Folklore De Mexico.
I would give her a 100 out of her 100

Mariel, our guide, studies social anthropology and has a passion for the history and culture of Mexico. She provided a wealth of information about the history of this area in a very interesting way. It was our first time in Mexico City and we learned so much through this tour. Highly recommend!

Daniel was very friendly and easy going. He allowed us all the questions we wanted. It was really like having a friend show you around their home. It was really enjoyable and i will definitely choose Daniel for other tours as well.

Our tour guide was friendly and knowledgeable, although we had a bit of trouble finding each other as the designated meeting place is quite crowded and it wasn’t easy to identify him. We spent a lot of time on the first several stops, which was very interesting, but seemed to run out of time for the last few. Our guide did not show us the Catedral Metropolitano or the Presidential Palace, except to point them out from a distance and we did not go inside or even near those important landmarks, which was disappointing. He did buy us some bottled water but there no snacks or drinks as mentioned in the tour description.
