We booked this tour based on it's itinerary and reviews. We do enjoy an occasional private tour. We were picked up on time at our hotel. Veronica was our guide and was amazing. We went to a flower market before getting on the floating boat. The ride was lovely. Veronica told us a lot about the city it's history and culture. We went to the Diego Rivera museum which is amazing. Then to the Coyocan market where we grabbed a bite to eat and have some free time. Then the Frida Kahlo museum which is a must see. The driver was excellent, smoothly guiding us around the city. We also stopped at the University which wads fascinating. Veronica is very proud of her city and it shows. Her energy and enthusiasm were palpable. The price for what you get is a real bargain. Highly recommend

Vail, our guide was terrific. We learned a lot about the history of San Miguel, and enjoyed all the restaurants we visited. Highlights were the shrimp and jicama tacos and the churros. I have some mobility problems due to a total knee replacement I had a few months ago, and she changed the itinerary to accommodate me. They even picked us up at our hotel and brought us back! My husband and I were the only ones on the tour, so they went out of their way to customize the experience. One piece of advice: go hungry!

We had a great time riding bikes in Mexico City! It’s a must experience! The whole things was perfectly organized and I felt 100% safe riding a bike in the streets of CDMX thanks to our tour guides. We had one guide in front of the line and one in the back. The tour guide had a lot of knowledge and gave details about CDMX I had never heard before. If you haven’t had a bike tour in CDMX I definitely recomended this one! They have different kind of routes and they adapt to your needs.

Spent 2 days with David and am happy to recommend David and Annamaria, without hesitation, for whatever kind of tour you would like, in or around Queretaro. For example, we had an exceptional day visiting the monolith near Bernal; followed by a lovely time in the town itself; including a couple of fascinating extra touches; and topped off with wonderful lunch at a picture perfect hacienda. Annamaria & David will go out of their way to see that you have a great experience in Queretaro. Bob

I contacted Ricardo ahead of our visit to Morelia. It was extremely easy to book a walking tour of the city that suited our needs. Ricardo picked us up at our hotel and drove us to the outskirts of the old center. From there, we walked through the city. Rodrigo built our experience around Morelia’s historical landmarks. He spent time providing us a very thorough historical background of Morelia. His expert knowledge of the conquest of Mexico by Spain and the Catholic Church helped put in perpective how Morelia has developed into the urban center it is today. Rodrigo also took us to a phenomenal artisans center. As we parted ways, he was kind enough to walk with us to a very nice restaurant he recommended for lunch. He also shared with us the names of a few places to shop on our own. It was a phenomenal tour! Morelia is a wonderful city. Rodrigo’s prices are extremely competitive. I can’t recommend Yei Tours enough!

As I (Albert Coffee) guide you through this magical place, where I had the privilege of participating during the 2004 excavation field season, I'll share what I have gleaned through personal hands-on experience and years of study about ancient Mesoamerica, the legends & wisdom of local people. I am a graduate of Louisiana State University and a federally licensed tour guide. This special tour includes years of documented legends, wisdom & memories of the elders of the ranch communities on and around the historic location. You will hear about each place and its cultural significance as you journey along the path the ancients took to reach the pyramid. I have taken over 20,000 people on tours since the site opened to the public in 2011. My passion is relating in an enjoyable way information that is just coming to light in an area recently investigated. I hope to see you soon. This is "a must do while you’re here…!" "An experience that can’t be missed." "Don’t get left behind."

A great guide always contributes to a great tour experience, and this was the case here. Diego was charming, knowledgeable, fun and professional. He conveyed the essence of the art, history, geography and the soul of Guanajuato. This is precisely what we were looking forward to. Guanajuato is a special and charm filled experience not to be missed. It's so distinctly dissimilar to San Miguel de Allende and that was a fun surprise. Spend your money intelligently on good guides, this is a good one.
