Like the people who travel with us, they have different backgrounds and interests – but they’re all so passionate about the place they call home, they choose to spend their free time sharing it with the like-minded travelers matched to them.

I only had a short time to see the city and Lando made sure I got the most out of my visit. He is very knowledgeable about the city's history and I learned a lot!
Great to hear you had a good time with Lando in Mexico City! Thank you for your positive review—it means a lot to us.
Nicolas gave an excellent walking tour of downtown Mexico City. We had no knowledge of the city, so we just let him decide what to see. Nico arranged a walking tour from the modern business district to the ancient Zocalo. It was fascinating to see the history unfold in reverse order. Nico was very patient with a group of very tired gringos who awoke at 4 am to catch a flight from Mazatlan (eclipse viewing trip). We stopped for coffee to gain energy. The evening was capped off with a fantastic restaurant recommendation from Nicolas. We were very pleased with the trip!
It's fantastic that you entrusted Nicolas to decide what to see, and he arranged a captivating journey from the modern business district to the ancient Zocalo, allowing you to witness history unfold in reverse order. Think of us next time you travel, we have hosts worldwide!
Ingrid was wonderful. We had a really fantastic experience on this layover tour. We loved the markets and making fresh guacamole at a local food stand was an extra treat.
When you plan your next trip, remember us—we boast a network of over 1,200 hosts worldwide. I'm thrilled to learn that you had a fantastic time with Ingrid! Your words are truly treasured!
Lando was excellent at bringing the history of Mexico to life for us! We only had a few hours between flights but the experience was amazing!
Your positive review is incredibly valuable to us and Lando. Thank you sincerely!
Fantastic day, instead of waiting in the airport I enjoyed learning a lot about Mexico City's historic center. David was a very knowledgeable guide and also lots of fun!
Had a great walking/taxi/public transport tour with Ernesto! I was on a long layover so it was the perfect introduction to Mexico, a place I’ve always wanted to visit! (Picked up and dropped back off safely and comfortably at the airport) Ernesto was really cool, informative and accommodating before and throughout the tour, and I’m actually quite surprised at how much we managed to fit into the short time! His knowledge of the city and it’s history/culture was excellent and we had a great laugh taking it all in while trying some authentic (Albeit vegetarian- I’m veggie) tacos and the famous Mezcal!! Thanks a million!
