Best tour with expert historian guide! - Vladimir was an incredible guide and a font of information! He could answer any and all questions! He obviously has a passion and deep knowledge of ancient cultures. He also explained how he feels an intense connection to the gods whenever he visits this site. So I felt this same respect when we climbed the steps of the temple. Michele was a wonderful driver. He drove us to the temple of the moon. We couldn’t have asked for a better tour with both Vladimir and Michele. We loved that it was a private tour so all of our questions were answered and we had the full attention of Vladimir. Thanks so much!

Magnificent Tour of Teotihuacan - My wife and I really wanted to visit Teotihuacan during our short stay in CDMX Polanco. However, we were very concerned with spending too much time on the group tours with multiple destinations offered by other operators. Very glad we found the express private tour from Local Vibes. Our tour guide Clara and driver Edgar were both wonderful. Clara is not only very knowledgeable and passionate about history of Mexico but is also a great listener. She gently adjusted pace of the tour through the ancient city to our abilities. We are very glad we went for the tour. Our trip to CDMX would not be complete without it.

Smooth transport, expert guide - My friends and I had a fantastic experience visiting the Teotihuacán pyramids. Transport to and from Mexico City was on-time and smooth. We could not have asked for a better guide than Julia who was able to answer our every question about Mexico and the pyramids. The tour lasted the perfect amount of time (~2.5 hours at the pyramids) and we were given the chance to stop for a drink on the way back.

Recommend for a nice tour od the pyramids - Diana and Michel (our driver) were lovely. They picked us up at our Air bnb. Diana was quite knowledgeable, and attuned to what we wanted to see, how much, how long. We cut the tour a little short because it was hot and we had seen all the important stuff. Would recommend for anyone looking for a private tour. Chill, friendly, and very down to earth. They even dropped us off at a taco joint on our way back that they recommended. It was fantastic!!

Super convenient way to explore the pyramids - The express tour was the perfect amount of time to spend at the pyramids. We got there before the crowds and before the sun got unbearable. We even got a chance to climb the steps of the temple of the feathered serpent. Sergio was very knowledgeable and even had a cool program on his tablet that displayed renderings of what the temples would have looked like in their heyday. The tour was a great, convenient way to explore this significant historical site. We were picked up at our AirBnB, supplied with water and snacks, given ample opportunity for sightseeing, got picked up on the opposite end from where we started walking (to the great relief of our kids who thought we would have to walk all the way back to the beginning) and then were driven back to our place.
