Great Tour, Guide, Service and Professionalism all around!
We arrived in Mexico City on a Sunday evening and thanks to the professionalism and exceptional service of Estigo Tours were able to book online (via chat and then phone) a private driver and tour guide for the next day to the Pyramids and Church of the Virgin Guadalupe. The price, despite the last minute booking, was very reasonable and the tour guide, Francisco, was exceptional. We were picked up at our hotel as a part of the tour price. We spent a beautiful day touring the Pyramids and Church, had a wonderful lunch near the Pyramids, visited a very high quality Native American jewelry shop, and were returned to our hotel very satisfied and much enlightened about what we had seen. Francisco our guide spoke excellent English and was very knowledgable. Definitely a Five Star experience. Definitely will book another tour with Estigo Tours when we return to Mexico!
Response from the operator: Hola BurtH_11, Many thanks from Estigo Tours for taking the time to review your day with us. It was our pleasure helping organize your excursion. We hope to have you back with us again soon ... please keep us in mind for your future travels through Mexico , we have many more beautiful places to show you in Oaxaca, Cancun, Puerto Vallarta and San Miguel de Allende. Thank you ! Gonzalo.

Three Fabulous Tours in Mexico City!
My daughter and I spent 5 days in Mexico City. Three of those days were spent with Francisco, our tour guide with Estigo Tours. The 3-day tour was arranged carefully by Gonzalo with such efficiency that we could experience a great number and variety of sites in a short time. Both Gonzalo and Francisco were outstanding. I called Estigo shortly before our trip and Gonzalo helped me plan fabulous tours: Day One to the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe and the Pyramids of Teotihuacan; Day Two to Xochimilco with a boat ride on the lake, as well as a visit to Coyoacan with the Casa Azul of Frieda Kahlo and the house of Leon Trotsky; and Day Three to the Chapultepec Castle and incomparable Museum of Anthropology in the large, beautiful green park, Bosque de Chapultepec. In addition, Gonzalo and Francisco recommended several other enjoyable and informative sites that we explored on our own—Mariachis and good food at Café Tecuba, the Aztec ruins in central Mexico City, the Palacio de Bellas Artes, and the historical and inspiring Metropolitan Cathedral. Gonzalo arranged rides to and from our hotel as well as the airport. He was in touch daily and often met our needs before we even experienced them! The guided tours were led each day by Francisco—knowledgeable, friendly, accommodating, and all with a wonderful sense of humor. We saw and learned so much about the remarkable history of Mexico City with just the right amount of time to linger in each place where so much of the past is well-preserved. We stayed at the marvelous Hotel Catedral in the historic heart of the city and were only a few steps from the Metropolitan Cathedral and Aztec ruins. If you would like to have a trip to Mexico City beyond your wildest dreams, book Estigo Tours!

Estigo and Grerado trip review
I wanted to take a moment to thank your company for an incredible experience in Mexico City. The city itself was amazing, but what truly made the trip memorable was our tour guide, Gerardo. Gerardo was exceptionally knowledgeable, professional, and friendly throughout the tour. His passion for the history, culture, and landmarks of Mexico City was evident in every stop we visited. He had a way of bringing the stories and history to life, making the experience both educational and enjoyable. Beyond his knowledge, Gerardo's positive attitude and warm personality made us feel welcome and comfortable the entire time. He went above and beyond to ensure we had a great experience, and it was clear that he genuinely cares about his guests. We were extremely impressed and would absolutely recommend your tour company to family and friends. Gerardo is a tremendous asset to your team, and he played a huge role in making our visit to Mexico City so special. Thank you again for such a wonderful experience.

Unforgettable Experience! A Perfect, Flawless Tour
Our tour to Teotihuacan was exceptional. We opted for a private tour and could not be happier with Estigo. Gonzalo was so supportive and instrumental in curating our private tour. He reached out to us to understand our interests and curated a perfect tour of the temples. Our guide, Francisco was friendly, extremely knowledgeable and flexible to adjust our tour to our liking without missing any of the amazing sites. Highly recommend Estigo for any of your tour needs while in Mexico City.
Response from the operator: Hola Outandabiut, Many thanks for taking the time to share your experience with us in Mexico City , it was my pleasure helping. We hope to have you back again soon . Gracias ! Gonzalo.

Why this scores 81
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private from Mexico City: Pyramids of Teotihuacan & Basilica of Guadalupe: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Mexico City.
How much does Private from Mexico City: Pyramids of Teotihuacan & Basilica of Guadalupe cost?
+
Prices start at $92 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Mexico City usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private from Mexico City: Pyramids of Teotihuacan & Basilica of Guadalupe take?
+
Plan for about 9 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Mexico City is not rushed.
Is Private from Mexico City: Pyramids of Teotihuacan & Basilica of Guadalupe worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 81 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 95 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Mexico City, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private from Mexico City: Pyramids of Teotihuacan & Basilica of Guadalupe?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private from Mexico City: Pyramids of Teotihuacan & Basilica of Guadalupe suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 6. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 9-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Private from Mexico City: Pyramids of Teotihuacan & Basilica of Guadalupe?
+
Around 33 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Mexico City can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Mexico City and add a light layer if any part of the 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private from Mexico City: Pyramids of Teotihuacan & Basilica of Guadalupe start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Mexico City within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Mexico City?
+
On Outty we rank every Mexico City experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Frida Kahlo VIP [Museum Tickets Included] Walk, Markets & Churros, Local Foodie Adventure CDMX: Tacos & more with Sherpa Food Tours, Mexico City Historical Centre Food Tour with 7 Tastings & Drinks. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Mexico City?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Mexico City?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
