We have taken many tours throughout the world and did many other tours in Mexico. Hector is hands down the best tour guide we have ever had. He was warm, kind, and genuine. He shared so many interesting things with us on our ride to and from Teotihuacan and we really felt connected to Mexico City during that time. His tour was incredibly professional. We really liked that as he was explaining things he was also writing them or drawing examples on a white board. We are all visual learners in our family so it really helped us retain the information. He also had a magical bag with pictures and physical objects to help us connect to the tour information. I have had a handful of surgeries this year and he did a fantastic job of being patient with me while also making sure the tour included everything. I unfortunately got sick halfway between The Feathered Serpent and the Moon Pyramid (food sick from prior night probably). He took exceptional care of me, and when I let him know I needed to get to a restroom, but wanted my son and husband not to miss a thing he executed perfectly. He took care of me getting where and what I needed while also sending my husband and son on a stop to view a few things then meeting back up with them to finish the tour while I was in the restroom. He was so kind about it. After the tour he dashed to his car and cranked the A/C so that I may be comfortable the minute I got to the car. What a kind soul. We learned so much, and the way he taught it really stuck to our minds and hearts. Thank you Hector!
This was a fantastic tour. Hector was wonderful company and very knowledgeable about… well, everything! I loved being able to get in as soon as the archeological area opened. We also really appreciated that Hector took time to really dig in to the symbolism and history of the ruins. Having the option to walk rather than drive between sites was great and allowed us to see the underground layer and decorated jaguar heads up close. Thank you for a perfect morning, Hector. We would go again in a heartbeat.
Hector was a fantastic guide, enthusiastic about the pyramids and an excellent driver. His knowledge of Mexico City is priceless, we would highly recommend.
My husband and I have traveled quite a bit and have booked many guided tours. Hector is hands down the best guide we’ve ever had the pleasure of experiencing. His laid back but extremely insightful approach made for a stress free, full of information yet relaxing day! He was on time and immediately connected with us by sharing the wonders of Mexico City as he drove to the ruins of Teotihuacán. This stop is a MUST for anyone visiting Mexico City for the first time and we strongly encourage you request a tour with Hector. He speaks English and Spanish perfectly. Gracias, Hector. A gorgeous day we will remember for the rest of our lives! Highly recommended!
This private tour was great and allowed us to get to Teotihuacan early to beat the crowds. Our guide was very informative and efficient. We were back in the city by noon which allowed us time to do other things that were on our itinerary. All in all, a great tour!
We had the most memorable tour with Hector. He was extremely knowledgable and actually fun to be with. Loved the ruins and would highly recommend this tour and Hector to anyone.
It was very mystical being there at the pyramids Edith spoke of them so beautifully. The whole day was very relaxing and informative. Hector did such a great job driving with so much traffic.
I have been to over 45 countries and hired many tour guides, and Hector is by far the best guide I have had. He is engaging and passionate about his tour, which is common with many guides. However, he understands that people don't have the tolerance for paying attention to a tour that will last up to three hours. It is certainly my case. I'm maxed out after two hours. What does he do to make it engaging? He brings a medium-sized whiteboard and draws on it while explaining the historical events. I couldn't stop paying attention. It was absolutely genius. I wish all other guides I hired would do the same. Hector even brought a binder with pictures to show us historical artifacts. Hector also offers guided tours of the Anthropology Museum and Chapultepec Castle. I didn't do those, but a friend did and told me it was unreal. Thank you so much for an incredible tour.
Edith was a wonderful tour guide! We learned so much and she was very friendly. We highly recommend this tour!
Edith was a great tour guide who was very friendly, personable and knowledgeable on the topic. We highly recommend her and would do this again.
We highly recommend this tour. You learn a lot from Hector and he is well prepared. It’s totally worth it :-)
What an amazing private day tour with Hector! Edith from the tour group emailed and connected on WhatsApp to confirm everything the day prior, and the pick-up at the hotel was exactly on time. Hector confirmed directly with us also when he was almost at the Hotel, arriving in a clean and spacious car. There were 3 of us on the tour with Hector, and from the moment we stepped foot in the car heading to Teotihuacan and speaking with Hector we knew we were in for a fun day. Bottled water was provided free along with some umbrellas if needed for rain or sun. Its recommended to bring a hat and sunscreen, but there are plenty of opportunities to purchase hats for cheap at the entrance to the site. Worth pointing out that Hector took care of everything such as the entrance tickets - which was included in the price of the tour. Apart from Hectors amazing personality, his passion and knowledge of Teotihuacan is mind-blowing, his ability to visually the explain the history, - combine all of these together and you're in for a great day of learning and picture taking. Lunch is not included in the price, BUT Hector takes you to a really nice restaurant where you can grab a bite to eat for a very reasonable price - and did I mention Hector got me some chapulines (grasshoppers) to try. The pace of the tour for the three of us was perfect and the great thing about the private tour is that you can go at your own pace. We never felt rushed, Hector ensured that we had the best experience possible and that we took away all that we needed from the tour. As an added bonus, after the Teotihuacan tour we stopped by the Palacio de Tepantitla to view some murals that are around 1600 years old!. We are going to be talking bout this trip for a very long time, forever even, and hope to book further tours with Hector when we come back to CDMX. Thank you Hector!
Hector was our private tour guide to Teotihuacan and on the previous day to the National Anthropology Museum. He recommend we tour the sites in this order and I was so happy we did. His tour of the Anthropology museum provided excellent background knowledge before visiting Teotihuacan the following day. On the day we visited Teotihuacan, Hector picked us up from our hotel promptly at 8 am and his vehicle was clean and comfortable. We toured all 3 pyramids and some lesser known/crowded areas of Teotihuacan. I was extremely impressed by Hector’s vast knowledge of Mexican ancient history. He was able to answer all of our questions and did a wonderful job simplifying the complex ancient history in a way that was easy to understand as someone without any prior knowledge. This tour was the highlights of my visit to Mexico. I absolutely recommend Hector as your tour guide and can guarantee he will provide you with a memorable experience curated to your interests.
Hector was absolutely incredible and made our visit to Teotihuacan the highlight of my trip to Mexico City. He is super knowledgeable about the history of the site and was able to answer all of our questions. He took us to a lesser known area of Teotihuacan as well where we were able to see up close many original murals of the archeological site. I would recommend Hector to anyone wanting a memorable and meaningful visit to Teotihuacan. You will truly understand the history and culture of this special place after touring with Hector.
Hector was our private tour guide for both the Anthropology Museum and Teotihuacan. It was so helpful to go to the Anthropology museum first to learn all of the history before seeing it first hand. Hector is not only knowledgeable but he adapts his immense passion and learning to his group for the optimal experience. We had little knowledge of Mexico’s history and he made everything very easy to understand. We had a fabulous time with him and we have already recommended him to our friends for their visit. I want Hector to be my guide for every tour I book in the future!
Everything was excellent! The best guide, with visit as an excellent “tailored suit” Planning and organization, taking care of all the details. Highly recommended, very patient. Everything went wonderfully
