Adventurous Experience - I had a blast! Checked off two more things from my CDMX bucket list. The guide was friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. There is a lot of walking, so be prepared. Chapultepec is a huge and beautiful park worth exploring and the cable car experience was captivating. Go on the ferris wheel for another perspective of the beautiful area.

Irving is awesome -- 100% recommend - I am a solo female traveler from the U.S. in Mexico City for the first time, and Irving made me feel so safe and comfortable. I was the only one booked for this tour last night but he didn't cancel and gave me a customized experience filled with warmth and wonderful conversation. I definitely want to return to CDMX in the future and will bring friends next time -- and when I do, I will reserve with Irving again so they can meet him!

The Joy of a Rich History and Knowledgeable Guide - The Discover Mexico City's Heart and Lung From Above (Cable Car Ride) was a wonderful experience. Our group was small and our guide was personable and deeply knowledgeable. We bonded as we talked and walked from the Angel of Independence and looked at and discussed a castle, multiple museums and sculptural exhibits, the previous home of Maximillian, and rode in the cable car while discussing the city below and it's rich history. This tour had the highest value (benefit to cost ratio) of any of the tours we experienced during our visit to Mexico City. We were so deeply involved that we honestly forgot time, except when we rested. I really respected our guide as a person as well as a guide.
El recorrido "Descubre el Corazón y Pulmón de la Ciudad de México desde Arriba" (Teleférico) fue una experiencia maravillosa. Nuestro grupo era pequeño y nuestro guía, amable y con un profundo conocimiento, nos hizo conectar mientras conversábamos y caminábamos desde el Ángel de la Independencia, conociendo y comentando un castillo, varios museos y exhibiciones escultóricas, la antigua casa de Maximiliano, y mientras viajábamos en el teleférico conversábamos sobre la ciudad y su rica historia. Este tour tuvo la mejor relación precio-beneficio de todos los que experimentamos durante nuestra visita a la Ciudad de México. Estuvimos tan absortos que, sinceramente, nos olvidamos del tiempo, excepto cuando descansábamos. Realmente respeté a nuestro guía tanto como persona como guía.

Best host and great ride - I booked this trip the same day I arrived in the city.
I wasn't expecting very much from this tour as I don't like guided tours, but this is the exception!
Turns out Irving speaks perfect English! He reached out making sure I got all the instructions prior to our trip, he was very personal!
The trip itself was worth it, I was taken to several locations within the park, and Irving made sure to explain in detail each location as we stopped. The cable car ride was definitely the gem.
I knew Mexico City had some cable car systems, but I was not expecting it to be this beautiful and reliable. The city is truly amazing!
Thank you so much Irving!
