Fantastic way to experience the streets of Mexico City, get our bearings, learn about the history of the city and sample the local street-food.
Another great tour.

This was our second tour led by Velia and Augustine. Riding through the streets covers so much territory and the information provided along the way is really fascinating. So many nuances to the history. And then comes the food stops .... A pasteleria that wholesales to city ... unbelievable! Thanks so much. I think we have one more tour to do to complete the trifecta.
The staff are a class-act. :)

Went with friends via the Downtown History Tour on 2/16/25. While the tour was of course great, the staff that took care of us (Valentino, Miranda, and Amistad) were AMAZING. I had gotten horribly sick from an espresso con leche I drank earlier that morning. It all came back up several times during the first and second stops and took me until the fourth stop to get well. The three checked in on me constantly and Amistad even gave me some antiemetic pills to help. Miranda offered many times to accompany back to the meeting point if I wanted to, but of course I was going to stick it out (I had paid for everyone, plus when is the next time I'll be back in CDMX, lol). The three were very awesome at heart and went above and beyond for me that day while taking care of my buddies and the others in our group. Very much grateful.
Excellent Food and History Tour in CDMX

Excellent way to spend a half day. Perfect combo of easy biking (never felt unsafe in traffic), historical sites and amazing authentic food. Our guide Valentin was fantastic and his helpers were great too. I highly recommend this tour.

Two of us booked the evening before our tour and had an amazing time on a private pedal around with Isaac. The depth of Isaac's knowledge and analysis was way way beyond what we expected. This was a really unique way to absorb some of the history of this magnificent city with a unique glimpse of life and culture. The cycling was exciting and the snacking was fun. We loved it and are so grateful for this wonderful way to see Mexico City.

Coordinated a private tour via email in advance for 6 pp, Pre-communication was excellent and upon arrival our guides, Issac and Valentin greeted us and had our bikes and helmets ready to go. They were so knowledgeable about the history of Mexico City and current life. They customized the tour to keep our 3 teen boys and 3 adults engaged and excited about the food and history of the city.
Perfecto!!

What a fun tour! My husband and I recently participated in the history and food tour, and it was one of the best experiences we had in CDMX. Valentin and Augustine were incredible hosts. Super knowledgeable on the history of the city, and they both ensured we could safely bike through the (at times) chaotic city center. The cafes and taco shops we visited were delicious. I would recommend you take this tour when in Mexico.
The V team rocks!

We had the “V” team! Velia and Valentino. This was such a good tour. Packed full of interesting sights, excellent history lessons and amazing food! I think Velia should get danger pay…she was our “ blocker”( the person who stops traffic when needed). Biking in Mexico City was not that scary and quite easy to manœuvre around especially with two guides and only 4 tourists. The service was very personalized. I now need to come back to go on another tour!
