Travel by Cable Car in Mexico City-Iztapalapa

4.8
(33 reviews)
Mexico City, Mexico

3 to 4 hours (approximately)
Offered in: English

I understand that foreign people are afraid to visit the poor area of Mexico City. It is true that there are very dangerous areas and they are not pretty to see.

I would like foreigners to open their minds and venture out of areas like Polanco, Roma or Reforma.

We will take the transportation that normal Mexicans use on a daily basis. Upon arriving at the first cable car station, we will begin to see the ghetto and its surroundings. We can walk around but only at specific places on the trip. At no time will we go down in red areas.

From that point, I will give you information about the different social classes in Mexico and why this country continues to be a place of poverty.

Likewise, we will talk about Mexican culture and its valuable people. Specifically about the people who live in that area.

You don't always have the opportunity to travel to a place like Latin America. So you have to make the most of the trip.

The tour is English and/or Spanish.

With me you will be safe :)

    Most tourists always visit the same places. They don't know the real Mexico. With me you can learn about the life of Mexicans without being in danger. I will meet you at the Bellas Artes metro station and from that point our trip by public transportation will begin to the beginning of the Cablebús (Cable car). I will be with you at all times, so there will be no danger. Together we will travel through the sky of the marginalized area of Mexico City. At no time will we go out on the dangerous streets, so the trip is very safe and perfect to get to know the other reality that almost no one talks about. We will return to the same starting point. Ideal to enjoy the Museum of Fine Arts. On this trip the language will be spoken in English and/or Spanish.
