Great cities are great conversations, and this place has a million stories to tell. My name is Francisco, and I'll be your host. I'm a writer, photographer, and foodie who has traveled over 500 cities around the world. I've lived and worked as a guide in Tokio, Barcelona, Berlin, Amsterdam, and the Middle East. For the past 11 years, though, Mexico City's Historic Center has been my home.
In this private walking tour, you'll embark on an immersive journey guided by a celebrated local writer. Choose a real storyteller to tell you this city's history. Whether you're an art enthusiast, aztec aficionado, or simply a curious traveler, this tour will leave you with a deeper appreciation for Mexico City's soul.
Inspired by the composer, we orchestrate unique tours that capture his eclectic spirit, from the traditional exploration in his Romanian folk dances to his groundbreaking avant-garde works. We believe there is another way to walk this city. Bartók's way.

I had an absolute ripper of a walking tour in Mexico City with Francisco, a top-notch writer and all-around legend. He took us through the historic center with such flair, weaving in fascinating stories and local gems. At the end of the tour, he pointed us to this amazing soul food restaurant that served up the best feed I've had in ages. We ended up hanging out with him, listening to Herbie Hancock on some seriously impressive audiophile equipment. It was a cracking experience from start to finish, and I can't recommend Francisco's tour enough.

The walking tour with Francisco was A+++. His knowledge of the city's history made the experience truly captivating. He had an effortless way of weaving stories and historical facts that kept me thoroughly engaged. By the end, I felt like I had been time-traveling all day. I can't wait to book again with him.
To top it all off, when I told him that I am passionate about music, he recommended a fabulous underground jazz club for the evening, which turned out to be an absolute gem.

The private walking tour with Francisco, an author and music lover, was an outstanding experience. Francisco's knowledge of the historic center, he lived there for over a decade now, combined with his engaging storytelling, made the tour truly memorable. He even got us into a really cool concert featuring music from Mali. Additionally, Francisco recommended an underground contemporary art exhibition in a building under construction, adding an unexpected and fascinating twist to our exploration. I highly recommend this tour.

Francisco’s tour was an exceptional mix of intellectual stimulation and cultural discovery—an absolute must for anyone wanting to explore Mexico City beyond the usual tourist spots. He wrapped it up with a recommendation for an outstanding taqueria. But the real icing on the cake was his tip about an avant-garde concert featuring Ligeti's piano concerto, which was a mind-blowing experience.

This tour was a highlight of our trip and exceeded all expectations. Francisco guided us through the city's historic center with a blend of historical facts, stories, and local underground insights. His post-tour recommendations really made our stay; he suggested an Afrobeat concert happening that evening and pointed us towards the most delicious Vietnamese restaurant I’ve been to in a while. A few days later, we decided to try his gastronomic tour, and I recommend you to ask him about it, it was soooo good. Francisco's private walking tour gave us a deep dive into the heart of Mexico City, his insightful narratives, recommendations, and genuine passion for his city made it outstanding. If you're looking to explore Mexico City in a unique way, I highly recommend booking a tour with Francisco.
