    Knowing about the buildings of religious, governmental, and artistic natures. Going in and out of a few places and tasting the food. Being informed that the President of Mexico is living in that main building in the square where only foot traffic and markets are to be near his people! That meant a lot to him to me. I AM very pleased with how the tour guide informed me of so many things! He was professional yet down to earth where everybody enjoyed everything about the tour! Thank you! Ms JJ

    We did not think that the tour guide was great. She was on her phone a lot. It was noisy on the street. The two taco places that we went were not great. We did not enjoy the final market place. The different foods were not our style at all

    Unable to find that start of this tour so missed out on the experience. We used Uber to make our attempt to get to the tour and found out how big and confusing the old town is. We asked for a refund but were denied by the local tour compamy, Amigo Tours. We’ve appealed our request for reimbursement and hope to receive positive news. It sounded like a fun tour.
