Tour description

Do you think that CDMX is something more than Roma, Condesa, city center, or Coyoacán? Do you want to go to a real neighborhood in Mexico City? Then this tour is for you.
We will be walking through the emblematic, traditional, and oldest neighborhood of the city, the hidden gem of Mexico City: Santa María la Ribera. 
This is a tour of an unconventional and non-touristy place. You will get a taste of the real Mexico City and see how mexicans really live. A tour for professional tourists. A tour without filters, where you will see the best and the worst of the city.
We will visit the largest library in Latin America, we will see beautiful churches, and museums and will experience real life in the city, going into the streets, houses, and parks.
You will be accompanied by a local bilingual guide, with more than 30 years of living in the place.
Tour is not suitable for kids, teenagers or reduced mobility people.
