Our guide Led (his parents are Zeppelin fans!) took us on a fantastic off-the-beaten path tour of the city's many official murals, some that could only be seen on foot. By traveling via bike, we covered much more area—and who doesn’t feel 10 again riding a bike?? Helmets were provided and with Led leading the way, we felt safe even on crowded streets. He even blocked a bus for us! Stopping for coffee along the way gave us an opportunity to learn more about this wonderful city from our knowledgeable and creative guide. A highlight of our visit!
Highlight of our trip to Mexico City was the tour of street art on bike with Pablo. We spent at least 3-hours biking through several neighborhoods seeing wonderful murals and hearing the stories behind them. Bikes were comfortable and Pablo adeptly navigated us through busy streets and back alleys. This was a wonderful way to get around, learn about the city, the people, the art, and get a little exercise. Gracias Pablo. Fue maravillosa!
