“This tour was amazing and it exceeded expectations. My wife and I signed up for the tour a few days before our trip to CDMX. The first couple of bicycles they put out for us had some minor issues but we eventually got some bikes that worked. We ended being the only two people taking the tour so we had just one tour guide - Ivan. Ivan was nothing short of amazing. We were a little nervous about riding bikes in CDMX after experiencing some tense moments riding in taxis. But with Ivan leading the way, we felt safe the entire time. Ivan gave us two tour options. We chose…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 53 reviews · 6 to 8 hours (approx.) · from $49

Spend 6 to 8 hours visiting Coyoacán, Casa Azul when tickets are available, UNAM’s murals, and Xochimilco’s canals. A guide such as Ursula, Daniel, or Carlos may lead the day in English, with hotel pickup from selected central areas, a small group of up to 16, and a trajinera ride included.
