Being and architect, to be able to tour the city with a practicing coleague, was an absolute best.

Juan Ramón, was not only super hospitable and friendly, but really took all my interests into account, and tailored an amazing experience throughout the city. Added to this, being an active professional himself, he knew all this inside information and fun facts about the architects that designed the buildings we visited! We even got to see one of the projects that he personally worked on (Habita Hotel) and had time to stop for coffee, which he kindly payed for.

If you're really passionate about architecture, this is definitely the tour to take. No questions!!

Many thanks for your wonderful feedback! There is such a plethora of great architecture in the city, but paradoxically there are NOT many architecture tours in Mexico City, and next to none that offer a PROFESSIONAL tour with a working architect.
As a huge architecture fan myself, I searched long and hard to find the right person for this architecture tour!

As an Architecture Professor and an active working architect, Ramon knows SO MUCH about this city and its buildings, but he also knows how to balance the day. He is fun loving, and approachable. He also understands that some guests are very particular about engineering, others about design, process or urban conditions, and others just love to feel inspired and take photos!

I am so glad you enjoyed the itinerary he tailored for you and you felt appropriately spoilt across all senses.

We look forward to taking you out again the next time you are in Mexico City!
Best

Review of: Private Downtown Street Art and Graffiti Tour in Mexico City

We spent a wonderful Sunday morning in CDMX exploring the City’s vibrant street art culture expertly curated by DJ, artist and political historian Jocan Deka. His knowledge of the various artists as well as the events that inspired some of the murals was encyclopedic. And he had a fun surprise for us at the end.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful feedback about your Street Art Tour with Jocan Deka. We opened up the street art tour precisely because it is an incredible portal for seeing the culture, history, politicas and art of the city. And Jocan is definitely the master at keeping it fun!

We look forward to taking you out again during your next visit.

Great Tour - Flexible & Informative

Review of: Teotihuacan Pyramids Private Tour from Mexico City

Went on a Private Teotihuacan tour with Javier. Through the company, Stylewalk MX. We stopped off at the Basilica of Guadalupe ( both old & new) on our way. We’re not young and at the ruins, Javier took that into account and made things easy for me. I had a list of things I wanted to see and read it to him in the car. He organized all the stops at the ruins in a very logical and easy manner. He was very knowledgeable and gave us the essence of what we were seeing, which I really appreciated. He was very pleasant company as well and gave us information about things we passed on our way there and back. After visiting the ruins, we then stopped at this lovely little restaurant where my friend got to try different tacos as well as a tequila drink which is very special - ask for it. Right next door to the restaurant was a Mezcal place where a charming Mexican gentleman, with excellent English and French in addition to Spanish, explained to us the numerous uses of the agave plant. They actually make their own Mezcal on the property. ( not Tequila because it is made from the blue agave only). They also have an indigenous co-operative shop which features jewelry, clothes and souvenirs. We also got to taste the popular drink, pulque. We left happy.
Javier was patient and a very good driver. The van was very comfortable as well. Just a great well-rounded trip with a great guide. Would highly recommend.

Thank you so much for your detailed feedback. There are many tours which go to the Pyramids but we believe it is a once in a lifetime opportunity, so it's important to get a balance of all elements right. Robotic facts or long academic lectures don't do Teotihuacan justice. And as you say not everyone is equally mobile. That is why a private tour helps our guests get the most out of the day.

We love Javier because he measures all the elements at play. And when he has guests such as yourself who want to try mezcal or pulque in an optimal environment for understanding these traditions, he is happy to assist.
If guests are not interested in this, he moves on. Not a problem.
It's quite simple. The day is yours to enjoy as YOU would want it.

We are glad you felt well tuned into, and well taken care of.

Safe travels and we hope to see you again soon!

Six hour private Teotihuacán Pyramids Tour

I took a tour to the Pyramids with three friends. Santiago was our tour guide and he was amazing and gave us such wonderful historical information. He was also extremely patient with us as we wandered off several times taking pictures. I can't recommend this tour company enough. This was my third tour with them and each one was wonderful. Thank you Stylewalk and Santiago.

We are so pleased to hear this was another great experience with us. We only work with a small group of guides because we are careful to choose professional, licensed guides who are knowledgeable, but who also understand that your overall experience comes top of the list. Santiago is indeed a treasured member of the team for that reason!

We are elated to know we have been a top hit three times in a row for you! Many thanks to YOU for your continued loyalty and ongoing trust in us!

Sending you our best from Mexico City,
Laura

Cancelled on us

We had the shopping trip scheduled and they cancelled via email (also called our hotel and left a message). Unfortunatety the guide had gotten ill. And there was not a replacement person. The company offered to organize us on a different trip for free and also was VERY apologetic and felt terrible. For our part, we were disappointed but didn't want to be exposed to the flu. I'd use this company again if we went back.

Many thanks for your kind feedback and your understanding! It is a rare occasion that our guides get sick, but if this does happen, our priority is our client's welfare. That is to say, we do not put our clients in a situation where they will be exposed to a guide's flu or cold, simply so a tour can go ahead. As visitors to the country, your immunity is much more vulnerable than a local's, so we keep this in mind when assessing what to do.

Unfortunately, because this tour took place in high season, our other guides were also fully booked so that is why we offered you a free alternative tour to replace the cancelled one. We didn't want for you to suddenly have no options for the day, so we felt the least we could do is offer you a complimentary alternative.

Once again, thanks so much for your understanding! You were really appreciative of our efforts to look after you.

We hope to see you the next time you come to visit!
Best
