After picking you up at your hotel, we will go to Xochimilco where we will board a Trajinera in the Xochimilco Canals through small floating islands made more than 500 years ago.
Later we will move to the old neighborhood of San Ángel and near there you will see the attached houses of Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo (Museo Casa Estudio).
Then we go to Coyoacán where we will visit the church of San Juan Bautista. We will walk through its main streets, we will get to know the Frida Kahlo neighborhood, after spending some time in these beautiful places we will go to the Historical Center where the guide will explain some important places such as the Plaza de la Constitución, the Metropolitan Cathedral and several historical buildings of this ceremonial center of ancient Tenochtitlán, which continues to be the heart of the most important city in the country.

Excellent service, the guides Verónica and Ramoncito and Rosi have extraordinary knowledge of Mexico and its wonderful history, culture and gastronomy.
I recommend them 100%
Another thing I noticed about Verónica and Ramoncito is that they master the English language very well.
I recommend them 👏🤩

Booking a private tour with Arturo was was best decision. Our tour with Arturo was the highlight of our trip.
Arturo’s vast and deep knowledge of not only Mexican but also world history, architecture, politics, horticulture, art and culture coupled with his passion for storytelling, makes him the perfect historian and tour guide. We came away from our time with Arturo with a better understanding and deep appreciation of Mexican history and culture.
Arturo’s professionalism, thoughtfulness and desire to provide a tailored experience that suited our needs shined through the whole day. He set expectations throughout the day with respects to timing, the itinerary, if we we’re running behind/ahead of schedule. He gave us choices if we wanted take quick detours through other parts of the city to see more historic buildings but only with our agreement that it would add more time. Every time we agreed, we were never regretted the decision because he had a great story to tell. He was full of information at every turn. We could have easily filled 2 full days. He also managed transitions well (from car to foot, foot to car etc.) gave ample warning and alwyas ensured we were safe while crossing streets. Lastly, he was very considerate of us -a group of 3 ladies - to always take us to the cleanest bathrooms vs. the public bathrooms. This was key!
Overall, an incredible experience worth the time and money because of Arturo.
Pro-tips:
- request Arturo as your your guide. You won’t regret it.
- The scheduled itinerary contained a couple places we had already visited. Our tour guide was flexible and able to accommodate changes to suit our preferences. For example, we had already been to the Frida Khalo museum and opted to go to the Botanical Gardens instead. Also, we requested a 10:00am pick up instead of the 9:00am advertised time and they kindly accommodated the change.

October 2021 we visited beautiful Mexico City. Tripadvisor recommend a trip with Mexico Tours Freelance. This was a very good advice.
Our charming and friendly guide Veronica is very knowledgeable and has developed a feel for what her guests really would like to see and hear.
Our driver was very capable and guided our tourbus through the Mexico City traffic with ease.
The morning trip on the Canals of Xochimilco was tranquil but soon we were entertained by friendly Mariachi musicians. Atmosphere is touristic put people are not pushy. Local familie also celebrate their sundays on the canals in the boats called Trajineras.
The upcoming celebration of Day of the Dead gave the whole morning a speciale vibe.
The afternoon was filled with visits to rustic Coyocán and the homes of Frida Kahlo and Diego Riveira.
The day was concluded with a visit of the Artesan Silver Market in Zona Rosa, the best place to buy authentic handcrafted Tasco silver, prices can be negotiated…
