Hector was a fantastic guide, enthusiastic about the pyramids and an excellent driver. His knowledge of Mexico City is priceless, we would highly recommend.

My husband and I have traveled quite a bit and have booked many guided tours. Hector is hands down the best guide we’ve ever had the pleasure of experiencing. His laid back but extremely insightful approach made for a stress free, full of information yet relaxing day! He was on time and immediately connected with us by sharing the wonders of Mexico City as he drove to the ruins of Teotihuacán. This stop is a MUST for anyone visiting Mexico City for the first time and we strongly encourage you request a tour with Hector. He speaks English and Spanish perfectly. Gracias, Hector. A gorgeous day we will remember for the rest of our lives! Highly recommended!

This private tour was great and allowed us to get to Teotihuacan early to beat the crowds. Our guide was very informative and efficient. We were back in the city by noon which allowed us time to do other things that were on our itinerary. All in all, a great tour!

It was very mystical being there at the pyramids Edith spoke of them so beautifully. The whole day was very relaxing and informative. Hector did such a great job driving with so much traffic.

I have been to over 45 countries and hired many tour guides, and Hector is by far the best guide I have had. He is engaging and passionate about his tour, which is common with many guides. However, he understands that people don't have the tolerance for paying attention to a tour that will last up to three hours. It is certainly my case. I'm maxed out after two hours. What does he do to make it engaging? He brings a medium-sized whiteboard and draws on it while explaining the historical events. I couldn't stop paying attention. It was absolutely genius. I wish all other guides I hired would do the same. Hector even brought a binder with pictures to show us historical artifacts. Hector also offers guided tours of the Anthropology Museum and Chapultepec Castle. I didn't do those, but a friend did and told me it was unreal. Thank you so much for an incredible tour.

What an amazing private day tour with Hector! Edith from the tour group emailed and connected on WhatsApp to confirm everything the day prior, and the pick-up at the hotel was exactly on time. Hector confirmed directly with us also when he was almost at the Hotel, arriving in a clean and spacious car. There were 3 of us on the tour with Hector, and from the moment we stepped foot in the car heading to Teotihuacan and speaking with Hector we knew we were in for a fun day. Bottled water was provided free along with some umbrellas if needed for rain or sun. Its recommended to bring a hat and sunscreen, but there are plenty of opportunities to purchase hats for cheap at the entrance to the site. Worth pointing out that Hector took care of everything such as the entrance tickets - which was included in the price of the tour. Apart from Hectors amazing personality, his passion and knowledge of Teotihuacan is mind-blowing, his ability to visually the explain the history, - combine all of these together and you're in for a great day of learning and picture taking. Lunch is not included in the price, BUT Hector takes you to a really nice restaurant where you can grab a bite to eat for a very reasonable price - and did I mention Hector got me some chapulines (grasshoppers) to try. The pace of the tour for the three of us was perfect and the great thing about the private tour is that you can go at your own pace. We never felt rushed, Hector ensured that we had the best experience possible and that we took away all that we needed from the tour. As an added bonus, after the Teotihuacan tour we stopped by the Palacio de Tepantitla to view some murals that are around 1600 years old!. We are going to be talking bout this trip for a very long time, forever even, and hope to book further tours with Hector when we come back to CDMX. Thank you Hector!
