A unique experience that includes history, top sites, tacos, and local drinks. This one is ideal for newcomers and seasoned travelers alike. We introduce you to Mexico's history by visiting three bar terraces corresponding to the prehispanic, colonial and modern times as we also make a stop at a taqueria.

​

WHAT YOU WILL DO

This experience is designed to introduce you to town, show you Mexican history, and to see one great World Heritage site from above.

Many people visit us, but don't know where to start and often end up getting lost and wasting their time. This is why I put together this tour which not only tells you about our history, but let you see our great Historic District from above. This is a journey through the different cultural eras of Mexico with different views, including the Pre-Hispanic, Colonial and Modern times. I will show you the city’s greatest landmarks in their historical context, while sitting down and admiring the greatness of the city at night and from above.

During this experience, different kinds of Mexican street food will be tasted. This tasting will feature tacos al pastor, or tacos de canasta, depending on the date or availability. The taquerias or stands will be found at street level while going between rooftops. By the end of the experience, you will have enough knowledge to incorporate all your past and future experiences in Mexico as I will share stories about the people, architecture, culture, religion, and international events that have shaped this important city and financial hub in world history.
