Definitely recommend taking the Turibus to give you a feel of a small portion of CDMX. We took the Central Historic route and found it highly enjoyable! If you are not fluent in Spanish, be sure to bring headphones, so that you can listen to the tour in your native language. By the way, we didn’t have headphones and still enjoyed the experience. It was a beautiful day, so sitting on the upper deck was FUN!

Viktor was an excellent tour guide (chef by trade) who took us to 7 fantastic spots, many of which were already featured on popular restaurant lists (ie Eater), so we were pleasantly surprised by the restaurant selection! We were staying in Polanco and it was nice to discover new parts of the neighborhood that we would never have known existed if it weren’t for the tour!

A great way to see the main places of interest without the hassle or having to use several means of public transport in a huge city like Mexico City.

So informative, covered a lot of ground, easy to hop in and out

Very nice way to get to know the city. Safe and comfortable
