Irving Santos was well informed as to the history and features of the psrk and many othe CDMX destinations. His enthusiasm for his city and country is contagious. He is a charming and entertaining guide and host.
Amazing walking and bus tour of Reforma and on foot and by Cable Car through Chapultepec. Great assistance from Irving as a guide.
Pura VIDA! Johnny. Muchas gracias por todo, fue todo un gusto conocerlos. Aqui esta su casa en CDMX!!! Saludos hasta Costa Rica!!! Santos.

Increíble!! our guide Irving was really great, it was like talking to and listening to a best friend who is super intelligent , friendly, open minded, and knowlegable. Non stop wow moments. Thank you so much!! We will never forget this experience.
Thank you so much, Callum! You got a friend in CDMX anytime!
I had a blast! Checked off two more things from my CDMX bucket list. The guide was friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. There is a lot of walking, so be prepared. Chapultepec is a huge and beautiful park worth exploring and the cable car experience was captivating. Go on the ferris wheel for another perspective of the beautiful area.
Thank you, Moxie! I had so much fun with you! Looking forward to seeing you very soon!
I am a solo female traveler from the U.S. in Mexico City for the first time, and Irving made me feel so safe and comfortable. I was the only one booked for this tour last night but he didn't cancel and gave me a customized experience filled with warmth and wonderful conversation. I definitely want to return to CDMX in the future and will bring friends next time -- and when I do, I will reserve with Irving again so they can meet him!
Thank you so much, Karen! I had so much fun with you! I learned so much from our shared trip! You got a friend in CDMX anytime!
Irving was a great guide for this tour. It was informative, entertaining, and all around enjoyable experience! Would definitely recommend.
Hi Nadia, Thank you so much for choosing us for your cable car ride, ferris wheel ride and Chapultepec visit! Keep enjoying CDMX, I hope to see you soon! Santos.
The Discover Mexico City's Heart and Lung From Above (Cable Car Ride) was a wonderful experience. Our group was small and our guide was personable and deeply knowledgeable. We bonded as we talked and walked from the Angel of Independence and looked at and discussed a castle, multiple museums and sculptural exhibits, the previous home of Maximillian, and rode in the cable car while discussing the city below and it's rich history. This tour had the highest value (benefit to cost ratio) of any of the tours we experienced during our visit to Mexico City. We were so deeply involved that we honestly forgot time, except when we rested. I really respected our guide as a person as well as a guide. El recorrido "Descubre el Corazón y Pulmón de la Ciudad de México desde Arriba" (Teleférico) fue una experiencia maravillosa. Nuestro grupo era pequeño y nuestro guía, amable y con un profundo conocimiento, nos hizo conectar mientras conversábamos y caminábamos desde el Ángel de la Independencia, conociendo y comentando un castillo, varios museos y exhibiciones escultóricas, la antigua casa de Maximiliano, y mientras viajábamos en el teleférico conversábamos sobre la ciudad y su rica historia. Este tour tuvo la mejor relación precio-beneficio de todos los que experimentamos durante nuestra visita a la Ciudad de México. Estuvimos tan absortos que, sinceramente, nos olvidamos del tiempo, excepto cuando descansábamos. Realmente respeté a nuestro guía tanto como persona como guía.
Thank you so much, Michael! It was a pleasure being with you and your wife, showing you my beautiful city!! Send you my best wishes, Hasta pronto amigo!
Irving was fantastic! Spent almost 4.5 hours with him and he made sure to make me and my family (2 kids) super comfortable while exploring and explaining history. We loved the cable car experience to top it all. 100% recommend Irving.
Thank you, Sethu! It was an honor and my genuine satisfaction to show you a little bit of my great country! I am glad you enjoyed it. Hasta pronto!!
Great trip, I booked this tour to enjoy the cable car ride. Totally worth it! Walking to auditorio nacional was super awesome, what a beautiful building! I enjoyed the walk though the park and around the city. Irving kept engaged with us the whole trip. Awesome guy! Thanks Irving!
Thank you so much, Erick!! I enjoyed you guys so much! See you soon!! (:
