We really appreciated our time with Jorge. He was incredibly gracious and knowledgeable, and did an excellent job of sharing his passion for history and legends. We would recommend this tour (or his other tours) for anyone visiting!
We had a wonderful tour with Jorge. He is a scholar and great storyteller. You can see his love for the city.
I seriously can't recognize this highly enough! This isn't a ghost tour, to be clear, though Jorge does tell you one at the end (if you want) that's a bit chilling. This is a great mix of stories: some facts, some legends -- all of which he's researched thoroughly on his own. And maybe because of that, it's just so clear that he loves the material. Plus, he's a born storyteller. And the price is great -- especially for a private tour. Honestly, when I booked the tour, the price was so low that I thought I had to be misunderstanding "private." So I showed up expecting a group, but no, it was just my friend and myself. Also great is that he's happy to stop and give you a little time to take pictures or to duck into a cathedral he's just told you a cool story about. Plus, having it at night was great. Not just for the ambience, but because most museums/tourist spots close at 5 p.m. here. Since most tours are in the day, you generally have to choose between doing that and ticking off a museum, a palace, etc. With this tour, you can go somewhere to take in the sights, leave at 5, grab a bite to eat (or take in Centro Historico in general), then meet Jorge at Bellas Artes without rushing. Seriously, don't hesitate -- buy the tickets!
Historic church with intricate carvings and paintings, serene ambiance, and significant as the resting place of St. Francis Xavier. Provides guided tours for historical insight.
Great tour , we learned so much history The stories told were very interesting and engaging , our tour guy made it very easy to get hooked to the stories
This is definitely an unforgettable experience. I like the tales that George tells me. This tour gives me very special perspective to understand Mexico. Also, it is relaxed for me to walk around the Mexico City and talk with George. Anyway, if you want to know more about the city, you can choose this tour!
Jorge was an excellent guide! He was very enthusiastic and told great stories. It was a great way to see the city and hear some lesser-known facts and legends.
My partner and I love to do ghost tours since she loves the paranormal and I love the history. Jorge's tour gave us both and really was my favorite that we have done together as a couple. We mostly did it in Spanish, but Jorge would pause when he could tell I didn't know a word or concept. He was a professor and that emotional intelligence shows. Since it was just us, he could tailor it more about our common interests and where his knowledge of Mexican and world history matched our own interest. He was also open to our own stories and anecdotes, which really made it a conversation as much as a guided tour. Highly recommend!
Jorge was a patient and thorough guide bringing years of professional and personal research on Mexico to life through the tour. Lots of breaks and opportunities to take photos. Lovely experience!
Really great story teller! Punctual, considerate, and very knowledgeable. Would highly recommend if you want to learn more about the city and history.
I liked his style and his way of expressing himself, his Latin English gives a special touch of originality and freshness to all your stories. It's interesting how you got me into the New Spain Era. The Legends that you shared with me: They were very interesting as well as reflective for the most part. Thanks George, I promise I will recommend you!
George is an amazing tour guide!! Very knowledgeable. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone visiting CDMX.
The city lights and the stories are fabulous. George is a great guide on top of his game. Totally recommended 110%
An incredible experience, it was my second visit to Mexico and I was really interested about its culture, buildings, leyends and history. This trip was absolutetly complete!! My couple also enjoyed it!! we were really grateful with George, he is really trained and rich in knowledge
A truly unforgettable experience. We toured the charming colonial streets of Mexico guided by Jorge, an excellent storyteller and knowledgeable about history. With his passion and knowledge he took us on a journey that went beyond time, immersing us in a world of legends and myths where the real and the dreamlike intertwine. If you are looking to discover the historic center at night from a magical and deeply cultural perspective, this experience is the right one. 100% recommended.
I really enjoyed the experience with Jorge. He is a very kind man and narrates the stories very well, the night became very pleasant because he immerses you in his legends and anecdotes. It is very worth going on the tour with him.
Mr. Jorge will not only give you a tour providing information, facts and legends—he will make you feel confident, that you learn, and that you will never forget the experience. I recommend it 100%!
Jorge gave us an unforgettable experience. His knowledge and enthusiasm for the city are impressive. It taught us to appreciate Mexico’s cultural and historical richness. A 5-star guide!
On the tour we were very well cared for, by Jorge excellent events and legends that he told us during the walks, everything was very entertaining.
The truth is that it was very nice to do this part of Mexico City at night with Jorge, for his kindness and his great way of telling us the legends. A complete success to do so. Jorge is incredible to do any tour with because of how well he treats and the passion he has when it comes to transmitting, as well as the experience that shows. We have been very comfortable in what we have done with it during the good days we spent in Mexico.
Excellent tour guide! I was delighted with your passion, professionalism and attention from the moment I booked the tour. It was a completely different experience than any other tour I have taken. I recommend it for those who wish to know more than the history of this city.
Too great, highly recommended, we went on our holiday walk from Costa Rica and were delighted with the attention.
An EXCELLENT walk through the largest city in Mexico with a great person and guide Jorge made our visit an unforgettable moment with the knowledge he has and with his way of being so pleasant time stands in every story, he knows a lot about his culture and his history, he is a certified guide and always learns more, so if you want a good experience, Safe and Nice I highly recommend the truth Jorge Thank you very much for your attention and care, keep loving your place like this Thanks again
Knowing facts that almost no one knows about legends and the history of buildings. Magnificent guide and very passionate about his work.
Interesting and entertaining tour. I liked Jorge's development. The weather really made me very entertaining. I'll recommend it.
I really liked the way and narrative style of guide George. Demonstrates many hours of previous investigative work on the tour and in the venues as well as in the selection of the Legends and Events chosen by him. Congratulations: You met all my expectations! Thank you.
He is a very friendly, fun and reliable person, makes the whole tour very enjoyable. He amply demonstrates his knowledge of the subject and his mastery of them, infecting his good vibe at all times. I definitely recommend this experience.
The best experience in Mexico City!! Jorge is a very friendly and fun guide, full of passion, with great knowledge of all the history and legends of this beautiful city!! 100% recommended!!! Thank you for this beautiful experience 👌
It was quite an entertaining experience, legends that leave you reflecting and a very enjoyable night; undoubtedly the legends could be felt in every place where they were narrated. The city itself is beautiful at night and with these legends they highlighted the stories that have developed in our country for years. In particular the legend that intrigued me a lot was that of the incendiary nun, if the title sounds interesting, the story is even more so.
All the legends are very interesting and teach us many things that we did not know I highly recommend and a tip for tourists to wear tennis and a camera to capture images as the city is beautiful at night.
Interesting, legends that I did not know out of the ordinary, much learning!! Jorge congratulations on your professionalism and passion for what you do..
I loved the tour, I highly recommend it, very entertaining at all times and with very good explanations.
A tour that I took to know and especially know things that I did not know, I learned a lot because Jorge has extensive knowledge of the subject!! I recommend it!!
Stories and legends very well documented and better told, I was pleasantly satisfied and surprised
At night the City looks beautiful and is a perfect setting, the legends that Guide George told us were unknown to me and I liked the way he narrated them. I highly recommend it.
