awesome experience and guide - I booked Pata de Perro based on TripAdvisor reviews. I am glad I did. Communication and service was top notch. Santiago, our guide, made our trip. It felt more like being with a friend showing us his home town than being on a tour. He showed us the best of Mexico City and was able to take us to places in Mexico City we wouldn't have seen or learned about otherwise. He was fantastic. I would highly recommend Pata de Perro. Their services and guides are the best.

Fantastic Guide - We had a wonderful tour of the Historico Centro and beyond with Lala. She was an amazing guide. Very knowledgeable about architecture and history. Most importantly she shared many insights and stories that made Mexico City and her people come to life. Rarely have I learned so much and had so much fun at the same time. She was the best smart, irreverent and fun! I'd go on a tour with Lala anywhere she wanted to take us ( and I'm not generally a guided tour kind of person)

Yaya is super smart and friendly, and the sights you visit are very well chosen a great mixture of insider info only a local would know, and more touristy everyone-should-know-and-see-this-place-when-visiting-MC. Just loved it.</p>
