This tour is a must for anyone exploring the vibrant history and architecture of Mexico City. The self-guided format allowed me to immerse myself in the heart of Mexico City at my own pace, discovering hidden gems 🙂

This tour was great! Not only did we learn about the history of the city and its places of interest by playing the challenges and answering the questions, but we also had a lot of fun. A great way to get to know the city.

Wow! The Explorial Trail in Mexico City was a delightful experience. The app was smooth with a user-friendly interface, the clues were clever, and the spots chosen were a mix of popular and off-the-beaten-path locations, giving us a well-rounded experience of the city’s culture. We faced some issues with the internet connection in some spots, but overall, it’s a fun and unique way to explore the city!
