Amazing cultural tour of Mexico City. Booking was straight forward and any queries raised were answered by the taketours team either via correspondence or on the phone. Once we arrived at Mexico City we found the local agent very helpful, friendly and punctual. We were picked up and dropped off at the airport with plenty of time to spare. As for the daily tours they were very well planned. The local guides were knowledgeable and accommodating. The hotel and local restaurants we visited were very clean and the food absolutely amazing. Also the arts and crafts stop overs were very interesting with prices to match all budgets. People were courteous and was no hard selling involved. We had an amazing time and unforgettable time.
