No pickup

Terrible experience. Woke up at 3 am to meet at the location provided at 4:10 in order to be picked up at 4:20 as we were told. Waited, and waited. Saw many vans come by and asked each one were they with amigo tours. Everyone said no. The one van that did come 25 minutes late for amigo tours picked up 3 other passengers and stated that another driver had us on his list. Ultimately we waited until 5:15 am then received a text message stating we “missed” transportation that never came. This experience was supposed to be for my birthday and I was unable to do it as we left the next day. Would not recommend Amigo tours because even if they do pick you up, they will be later. Horrible. Go with CDMX instead

A 1000 out of 1000 !! ♥️👌🏻Alex and David do a great job, our group was in Spanish and we went with Alex.

If I ever return, I would definitely do more tours with them. Thanks a million for everything!! They are great promoters of their culture 🙏🏻
