Elise was a wonderful tour guide. My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our experience. She was very fluent in English, spoke loudly enough for my husband who is partially dead to understand and ,had a lot of knowledge to share with us about these 4 unknown neighborhoods in the city. With her we had the opportunity to see 4 new areas, learn to appreciate what they had to offer and , come to learn that we in fact could live quite happily in Mexico city. Th experience was very chill and quite fun. It was like hanging out with a very knowledgeable new friend. I would highly recommend to others who want to see and learn something about Mexico city that does not involve the more touristy parts of Mexico city. Two thumbs up!!!

I was able neighborhoods that are primarily Mexican and close to the city center. This was a unique experience because I wouldn’t have gone to these areas otherwise. I explored with Elisa and she was wonderful.
