We did the glimpse of Mexico city tour and it was excellent. Our guide was really nice, easy to communicate with, and offered excellent insight into different aspects of Mexico city including the markets, and historical & cultural perspectives. Highly recommend.

I have been on many walking tours in many cities and the "Glimpse of Mexico City" led by Gabriel is one of the best.
I have rarely met someone with so much passion for a city.
Her in depth knowledge of architecture, food and history made the full day tour pass by quickly.
It was like spending a fun day with a good friend who loves the city.
Helen F, MI
The first tour gave me a great overview of the history, architecture and life of the city including several strategically timed food stops. And I was able to gain an insight into the complex issues that Mexico City and Mexico as a whole currently faces, from a local's perspective. I would never have achieved this on my own or with a large tour group. I also felt quite safe riding the Metro, taxis and venturing into local markets in out of the way areas with a local Spanish speaker.
