Indiana Jones called and said you’ll be uncovering the ancient Aztec ruins that lie beneath Mexico City. Alright, not quite. But you'll join one of our hosts to discover the historic wonders of the city. Visit sacred historic sites, colonial neighborhoods and an ancient barrio, among other ancient relics. Immerse yourself in Mexico City’s culture and history through exploring Templo Mayor, Zócalo and the Centro Historico. Modern Mexican culture has Aztec roots and you’ll see evidence of it everywhere you look.

Our handpicked hosts are culinary connoisseurs and history buffs, bakers and bankers, students and seniors. Like the people who travel with us, they have different backgrounds and interests – but they’re all so passionate about the place they call home, they choose to spend their free time sharing it with the like-minded travelers matched to them.

Your meeting place, time and your itinerary are flexible, so you can plan the experience to meet your needs.
