Great guide/good friend
"Chris, was a great guide. The communication prior to our tour was excellent Because of our conversation I felt comfortable booking a total customized trip with him. I told him what we wanted and he created a wonderful experience based on that. My wife was a little worried that if we did not like him or he was a terrible guide, we would be forced to take another tour and spend 5 more hours with him. Luckily we hit it off right away and he was a great guide as well. I would call him a friend. I asked him to come see my wife and I should he ever make it to our neck of the woods. Thanks Chris. Thanks With Locals as you have not let me down for private guides. "

Victor is passionate aniut his city.
"Victor met us in the agreed upon location and proceeded to give us nice tour and history lesson about Mexico City. We’ve never been so it was a treat to learn some of the well known and lesser known spots in the city. He was very accommodating and personable. He was an enjoyable guide and went above and beyond on additional places to visit. He really knows the city and the history. We enjoyed the time and tour he gave us around the Reforma area. "

Great experience at Templo Mayor
"My friend and I had a great time with Rogelio at Templo Mayor. Rogelio was very patient and kind - he came to find us when the uber dropped us at the other side of the entrance, he answered all of our questions and let us go at our own pace, and was extremely knowledgeable about the history and artifacts. He even gave us a great lunch recommendation nearby. I recommend you make sure to eat and hydrate enough to get you through the morning because the museum doesn’t allow food and drink (understandably) and the tour can take a long time. Another nice thing is, you can take a break for food and come back to the museum, as long as it is the same day, so if you want to spend more time, you can. I really enjoyed this tour and Rogelio was an excellent guide. "

"I had a wonderful experience with this tour guide in Mexico City. She is a very nice character, extremely friendly, and easy-going. She guided me through beautiful neighborhoods and places, both walking and biking, which helped save time and allowed me to see more. When I couldn’t create an account needed to unlock/rent the bike, she quickly resolved the issue with her own resources. She shared a lot of interesting information about the places we visited, and we also had great conversations about life in Mexico City. Overall, it was a fantastic experience that I strongly recommend to everyone!"

Killer Kickstart to CDMX!
"I can’t believe how much Al was able to pack in such a short amount of time. We did the “kickstart” tour on our first evening in CDMX and it was the perfect beginning to a fantastic trip. We learned so much about the history of the city and the Centro area in particular. Al was so kind, energetic and fun. He’s got what feels like “secret” spots for some really awesome views too. Would 100% recommend this tour to anyone just getting to know the city!"

Great food tour!
"We had a great time on our food tour with Daniel! He’s super knowledgeable and took us to some excellent off-the-beaten-path spots we never would’ve found on our own. We also got to explore a local market and see some sights along the way. Huge thanks to Daniel for being so flexible - we showed up late thanks to a parade that turned traffic into a parking lot. He also shared great tips on where else to eat and visit during our trip. Highly recommend!"

Fascinating Insights with Laos
"Laos was incredibly insightful as to the cultural, artistic, and architectural history of the CDMX Historical Center. We enjoyed his enthusiastic stories and historical retellings as well as his passion for art. Laos was also very generous with his time and rescheduled us easily when we were sick at our original meeting time. Overall this is a cant miss experience if you want to understand the historical center on a much deeper level."
