Carlos and Christian are an amazing tour guide duo for Mexico City and its surrounding historic sites. As we left Mexico City, we started our day at the El Angel sculpture, stopped by the Palacio de Bellas Artes, glimpsed a view of the Catedral Metropolitana, and visited the Tlatelolco archaeological site.
The tour of Teotihuacan was very educational and interesting, between the pyramids of the Sun and Moon and learning of the migration of people from the Mayans to the Aztecs. The drive to and from the pyramids was smooth, and we had time to stop for lunch at La Higuera before heading to the Basilica de Guadalupe. We marveled at Our Lady of Guadalupe and the vastness of the church, along with visiting the myriad of other churches in the vicinity.
Throughout our trip, Carlos shared his vast knowledge through captivating storytelling, and even joked with us about US idiosyncrasies. He was an immaculate host, and Christian was incredible behind the wheel. We hope we get to do another tour with these two in the near future!
