Med et areal på 647 ha er Chapultepec Forest en af de største oaser i Mexico City. Indgangen til skoven viser os Monumentet for Børnehelte, står overfor udfordringen med at klatre op på den lille bakke, kronet af Chapultepec Castle, som var et kejserligt palads og præsidentbopæl.
Dette verdensklasse museum ligger i en udvidelse af Bosque de Chapultepec og er et højdepunkt ved besøg af CDMX. Den lange, rektangulære gårdsplads er omgivet på tre sider af to-niveau displayhaller. De 12 saler i stueetagen (haller) er dedikeret til præ-spansktalende Mexico, mens salater på øverste niveau viser, hvordan Mexicos oprindelige efterkommere lever i dag, med de moderne kulturer beliggende direkte over deres forfædres civilisationer. Det store museum tilbyder mere, end de fleste mennesker kan absorbere ved et enkelt besøg.
Elskende kaldet El Ángel er uafhængighedsmonumentet på Reforma Avenue i Mexico City et umiskendeligt symbol på Mexicos hovedstad. Gylden og herlig svinger den bevingede sejerstatue over trafikken, kaos, protester og turister, der passerer under hendes fødder hver dag.
Alameda Central er den største bypark i Mexico City. Alameda er let en af de ældste byparker i Amerika. Alameda har været et symbol på byen gennem gode tider og dårlige i mere end 400 år.
Palacio de Bellas Artes (Palace of Fine Arts) er et prominent kulturcenter i Mexico City. Det har været vært for nogle af de mest bemærkelsesværdige begivenheder inden for musik, dans, teater, opera og litteratur og har afholdt vigtige udstillinger om maleri, skulptur og fotografering. Derfor er Palacio de Bellas Artes blevet kaldt "Kunstkatedralen i Mexico".
Bygget fra en holme i midten af søen voksede Mexico City med et netværk af kanaler og kunstige øer, og Templo-borgmesteren tog form. Spanierne bygget den Metropolitan Cathedral og hukommelsen af det gamle og imponerende pre-spanske tempel gik tabt i århundreder.
Inde i dette storslåede kolonipalads vil du se Diego Rivera-vægmalerier (malet mellem 1929 og 1951), der skildrer den mexicanske civilisation fra ankomsten af Quetzalcóatl (den aztekiske slangegud) til den postrevolutionære periode. De ni vægmalerier, der dækker nord- og østvæggene på 1. niveau over terrassen, fortæller om det oprindelige liv før den spanske erobring.
Metropolitan Cathedral er uden tvivl en af de vigtigste bygninger i Mexico Citys historiske centrum. Ud over dets religiøse betydning indeholder det et resumé af mexicansk kunst og arkitektur værd i fem århundreder. Bygget på resterne af et aztekisk tempel i det, der var centrum for den aztekiske hovedstad i Tenochtitlan, byggede de koloniserende spanierne den mest storslåede kirke i hele Amerika. Dens imponerende størrelse, fascinerende historie og smukke kunst og arkitektur gør denne til en af de mest fremragende bygninger i landet.

We had an amazing experience, and learned so much about Mexican culture and history. I highly recommend to anyone who wants a better appreciation for Mexico and the people. I would be happy to do this again.
Excellent tour of Mexico City. It was great that we could visit the most important places in Mexico City in one day. The guide was excellent, with a lot of knowledge of Mexican history and flexible to go at our pace.
Tour was excellent I had a great time! Jacqueline gave sufficient history background but we also had a good casual chat the entire day. I also liked the restaurant she brought me to, very authentic. Lastly, she was patient enough to take Iots of photos of me haha I definitely recommend!
Wow. What an amazing experience. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable, had a great energy and could answer any questions. She gave a compelling explanation of everything and gave great historical context to the day.
The guide is great, this tour was wonderful, I learned a lot about mexican history and we got to see highlights of Mexico City. Good job!
Jorge was wonderful , I learned a lot about the city , the most important places , everything was fine . Highly recommended
This tour was a lot of fun. My friend and I had been to a lot of the places before, but the guide still gave us new information during his explanation of the history behind the buildings and the city. He took pictures for us and gave us plenty of time to look around. He was thoughtful of the order we visited things so we avoided the rush of school children coming, so we never had large crowds anywhere we went. At the end of the day, he allowed us to stop for an unscheduled ritual going on in our path back to the car. It w as perfect because my friend and I flew home the next day. That ritual is one of the most memorable experiences I have from my trip. I highly recommend this tour.
Thank you Katie for your nice review. I´m happy you enjoy that much this tour.
We were not able to take this tour because the company cancelled at 1am the evening prior to our tour. After paying with a credit card, they contacted me directly to pay in pesos for a 15% discount. After declining to pay in pesos, my tour was cancelled a few hours later with no explanation.
Hello Adam. Thank you for your comments but in this case It is not accurate what you are saying since as a viator provider you can not cancel a tour before 11 pm in the system. Despite this I offer you a sincere apologize since the guide you had asigned told us that night she would not be able to do the tour since she had a problem (something out of our control), and that night we were trying to get another guide that had worked with us (to ensure an amazing experience) but all were already assigned to other tours. I´m sorry no one explained this to you, we will improve the communication with our clients when some change happen. Regards.
Jorge did a wonderful job taking two disabled ladies around Mexico City. He and our driver, Gabriel, managed to fit both of us and rollator walkers into their vehicle and tailored the experience to our mobility and energy levels. I would highly recommend this tour for the interesting tidbits of knowledge, the ease of getting around, and the flexibility. If you’re looking for a private tour of this beautiful city look no further!
Thank you so much Michelle. It was a pleasure for us to show you girls our amazing city.
Although CDMX itself was amazing and this tour covered all the essentials you should go see - was not a fan of the tour guide. Poor decisions such as choosing a restaurant for tacos that required being stuck in a car during rush hour traffic was not appreciated, especially when I was hungry. We could have just chosen a street vendor at one of the tour stops but I didn't want to be rude in suggesting that. Did not follow instructions when I chose a bakery as my pickup instead of hotel - which caused additional delays at the beginning. Kept quizzing me about history at almost every stop despite me telling him I wasn't much of a history person and would appreciate him just explaining vs making me feel stupid at every count. Definitely not worth the price for such lack of professionalism and perfectionism - I've travelled to 26 countries and 13 of those solo, and had way better tours for a small fraction of this price.
Hi Yurshin, Thank you for your review. As an agency delivering premium, fully private travel, we take all feedback seriously to ensure our high-end standards remain flawless. I would like to clarify the operational reality and exceptional value of this unique 8-hour experience. This is a 100% PRIVATE TOUR where a single traveler absorbs the entire operating cost of having a BILINGUAL GUIDE and a dedicated PRIVATE TRANSPORTATION AT YOUR DISPOSAL FOR 8 HOURS, alongside all skip-the-line admissions for both Chapultepec Castle and the Anthropology Museum. Managing premium logistics and private transit across Mexico City’s major landmark districts is a high-end service that requires significant resource allocation, which is fully reflected in the pricing. Regarding our guiding style, our travelers consistently praise our INTERACTIVE STORYTELLING. We do not lecture; we engage our guests with dynamic, common-sense questions and lighthearted humor to keep the experience alive and immersive. However, for an interactive tour to succeed, open communication is essential. During our day, we noticed your focus was primarily captured by editing and uploading photos to Instagram during the historical explanations. While we completely understand the desire for social media content—and we always leverage our expertise to help guests capture CREATIVE PHOTOGRAPHY to share with friends—it is impossible to perceive the value of a deep cultural journey if there is zero interest or engagement in the history itself. Furthermore, we always provide a tailored shortlist of at least three distinct dining options, breaking down the pros, cons, and wait times so that the client ultimately makes the final choice based on their appetite and schedule. We pride ourselves on our absolute flexibility. We can easily pivot to a purely photo-centric layout or a relaxed sight-seeing pace, provided that our guests are honest about their expectations when we ask about their interests at the start. Safe Travels, Jorge Luis
