Free Walking Tours in Mexico City of Street Art and Graffiti

One of a kind tour: unforgettable and highly recommended! Eduardo was an excellent guide from start to the end. He explained the metro and cable car system, mentioning many highly interesting historical facts from how it was established to how it is being maintained. He introduced Iztapalapa - a vibrant 1.8 million neighborhood in such an interactive way! Our group - a complete strangers at the beginning parted as buddies. The lunch in the local market was a highlight. An experience that I want to repeat next time I’m returning to CDMX!

Alexia was awesome and knowledgeable. As someone who has visited before this exceeded my expectations. Totally unique and fantastic tour. We took the metro and cable car for over an hour each way. Learned a ton about Mexico City’s recent history, transit, social justice and urban development in Ixtapalapa. Very highly recommend. An opportunity to explore outside of the tourist areas with a local

Great tour!

Gabriel was awesome, great personality and excellent guide. I was surprised by how cool the tour was and how muhc information that was provided. Highly recommend!

A great way to see parts of MXC I wouldn’t have visited on my own. Great views, history and introduction to the ease of public transport. Gabriel was a fantastic guide, kept the group together, lots of energy and great information, welcomed questions and was patient in helping direct each group to their post-tour destination.

This is an amazing tour to see the hidden or remote parts of Mexico City. It takes you up over the roof tops of the most populated neighborhoods outside the city and on top of surrounding mountains. Our very pleasant, knowlegeful and experience guide was full of history and culural anecdotes. The most helpful valuble part was taking us through and learnig how to navigate the overwhelming conneting routes of the Metro system which was needed to get to the Cable Cars. At the top of the trip we stopped and visited a local town and its large farmers Market. The added bonus was eating local traditional Mexican food. HIgly recommended.

Gabi was an incredible guide and our group had a great time! We are so glad we took this tour and would recommend it to anyone looking to get more familiar with public transit here, learn some history about the city, and go outside the city center. 5 stars!

The Cable Car + Urban Art Tour with Kactus Tours was an unforgettable way to see the largest neighborhood in Mexico City. Riding above the city and exploring its vibrant murals felt was really cool. Our guide Fernanda was realy knowledgeable, sharing context, history, and local stories with genuine kindness. This tour blends culture, community, and stunning views beautifully. I highly recommend it with Kactus tours.

Fer was an excellent tour guide. Highly recommended

Fantastic tour. Guide was energetic knowledgeable and good fun !! Would highly recommend this tour it’s great to see the different and authentic side away from the tourists

Eduardo took us on the metro and cable car. He explained the public transportation system to us. We loved the views and learning about the neighborhood, how it started, about the life there, about the art on the roofs and walls. We are so happy we saw the "real' Mexico City and not just the touristy sights. I would recommend this tour to anybody. We also enjoyed chatting with our group during the trip. Unlike other walking tours where you mostly walk with the group but don't interact with others, riding the metro and the cable car gave us opportunity to chat with the other participants, which was fun.

Excellent tour. Highly recommend. Our tour guide Alicia did a very good job.

Certainly the tour takes you to a part of Mexico City you would otherwise miss, which makes this tour unique. Alexia shared tons of great information. Alexia was quite knowledgeable, and it was clear Alexia has a passion for her city and people. We had quesadillas and local frescas. The locals were very welcoming. If you have the time, and get Alexia, the ‘walk” will be worth it.

Besten Dank für die tolle Führung. Mal eine tolle andere Idee wie man die Stadt kennen lernen kann und muss. Alexia gelang es kulturelles mit Humor zu verbinden. Danke für den tollen Moment 😊

This tour is a hidden gem, didn't know what to expect but absolutely brilliant, Alexei was so helpful and a great person Travelling over Mexico City on a cable car gives you a different perspective and I can't recommend it enough

It’s been a really nice tour. The ride with the cablecars were incredible! You have some stunning views over cdmx. Gabi, our Guide was super friendly and Knowledgeable. We also went to a very nice and local market and had a light lunch. I can really recommend the tour to everyone, who wants to see a different and bot touristy side of the city

Gabby is lovely! Very fun, positive, informative. We had a small group and it felt like a group of friends exploring together. Loved it!

What a fun tour full of interesting bits of Mexico history. Our guide Tomas was a fabulous blend of humour and knowledge!

Oscar was a great guide. He provided useful information on how to use the public transportation system, recommended places to go during our time in CDMX, and answered any questions we asked. It was exciting to travel like a native and to eat at local market.

Great tour with Alexi. She was very helpful and knowledgeable with interesting information to share the whole time. This particular tour involved less walking than most, but the time spent in the gondola gave a great unique perspective of things and was a nice quiet ride, so very easy to understand everything. The area she took us to is somewhere I wouldn't go to on my own, so it was great to see a new area of town.

Gabby was awesome and was so much full of energy and funny. She really made the trip fantastic. It was really fun to go to a couple local true Mexican places.

If you only do one tour in Mexico City, do this one. Gabby was a fantastic guide and cat herder! She managed to get our group of eight onto the metro and then onto the cable car and gave us lots of background info on the area. Loved it and highly recommend.

Gabby made the tour very enjoyable for us.

Alexia was an amazing tour guide, we enjoyed the cableride tour with her. She is also very pleasant and friendly. She recommended a lot of nice places to go and good food to eat. Gracias, Alexia!

Great tour, found out a lot about Mexico City, how to use the metro and the cable car. Both journeys were good - the cable car was amazing! Our guide was delightful - thank you Gabriel!
