The image of the Lady Virgin you see everywhere in Mexico has a story, and that story began at the Shrine of Guadalupe. This 4-hour tour led by a knowledgeable guide takes you through one of the most popular Catholic pilgrimage sites in the world. Admire the architecture of its two basilicas and gaze at the miracle cloak on display. Learn about the events that gave rise to the shrine, and ascend nearby Tepeyac Hill, where it is said the Lady appeared. Transport from central Mexico City is included.

Our tour guide Lithage?? was truly excellent. She picked us up at the hotel on time and provided some history of the areas that we passed through on the way to the Shrine. Inside she gave us very detailed information and did not rush us at all. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone.

Our tour was perfect! I can’t remember her name, but she took us everywhere, spending as much time as we wanted. Pick up was on time. Nothing tops seeing Our Lady of Guadalupe, and attending Mass at the basilica comes in second. Our tour encompassed everything, and nothing was rushed. Highly recommend her.

The site itself was beautiful and amazing! We went back on our own the next day and spent even more time there. The tour was very overpriced and not what we expected (I have done TA tours before and they have always been top notch). Our guide was nice and knew a lot about the facts/history about the area and the Guadalupe Shrine, but she did not have the skills to be a good tour guide. She didn't ask us anything about ourselves, did not make the van ride engaging, and did not take command of the tour. We could have almost done the same thing on our own, just as we did the next day without a guide. We took another TA tour two days later to the pyramids, and that guide was exceptional!

Mario was a great guide! I did this on a Sunday afternoon. We walked around the basilica, and Mario gave us some of the history. At the end some of us went to mass, and others had time to wander around for 45 minutes which was nice

I found Alberto to be very knowledgeable especially about the background of Juan Diego and his indigenous nature. This is a subject commonly overlooked by tours who simply recite the common published story. If you'd like to learn more about the lesser known aspects of the story, then Alberto is a great guide. However, you need to express an interest in a specific topic. As I have been researching this apparition for awhile, he brought good insights to more completely tell the story.

I give Ligia top ratings because she is knowledgeable and pleasant company. We also commend her for her patience. I misunderstood her instructions where to meet after visiting the first Apparition. She waited awhile and I apologized for the mistake. She’s the most experienced tour guide at Amigo Tours, working there for 19 years.

The tour guide was great
Viator/Amigas, please schedule this tour earlier so that we can see more of the area around the basilica. We saw the main building and one other but did not have time for the other churches nor the hill. If the tour started at 1:00 that would be enough time to enjoy all that the area has to offer. The buildings close at 5:00 so we have less than an hour to see those that we saw but we were rushed.

While many folks were booked for the tour only I showed up. That didn’t stop the guide from taking me around! Highly knowledgeable and strongly recommend.

Marvelous!! Our guide Alexa explained everything to us in detail in a very dynamic way. We loved it. We would hire him again.
