The day started off meeting our lovely, knowledgeable and funny guide Sergio. We visited some of the oldest and most historical neighborhoods in all of Latin America, stopped for the *best tacos ever* in a local market before exploring the San Angel bazaar and then the Convent of Carmen. At every step, Sergio was there to give us fascinating insight or crack a joke. By the end of the day, we were sad to say goodbye. This itinerary is perhaps a little bit off the beaten path compared to the headline attractions of CDMX but it was a lovely, relaxing, informative change of pace. Highly recommended.
Unmissable in CDMX
