About Tour Guide Oskar enrique M.
I am a young historian who has been working as a tour guide for 4 years. During this time I have met people from all over the world, which has taught me a lot about interacting with all kinds of people as well as showing my city in an authentic and interesting way. I like to take people to places that show another side of Mexico City, a closer perspective of how its inhabitants live day to day. I also enjoy taking photographs on my tours.

“Oskar was the highlight of our trip”
I traveled to Mexico City with a group of six people from the United States and United Kingdom. We utilized Oskar’s services for a historical tour of the city center and for a tour of Xochimilco. He arrived every day on time. His transportation was safe and comfortable. On each journey, Oskar made sure to hit everything that the group wanted to see. His passion from Mexico City, its culture, and its Art is unsurpassed. The group learned a lot and had a lot of fun in a large part due to Oskar. Highly recommend.

“An excellent tour with an excellent guide”
Whenever you are about to visit CDMX and are considering getting a local guide, Oskar should be your go-to person. Our tour exceeded my expectations - not only did we (I) not have to look at the watch, Oskar provided the most comfortable environment for such an event by sharing his knowledge, giving hints & tips when it comes to local food, and - where needed - helping out as a translator. Worth every penny.
Oskar enrique M.
Hey Michael! Thank you so much for your kind words. I appreciate that. That concert We went together will stay in my mind forever. People like you make me love my job. Some days ago I dreamed you were back in the city and to my surprise... you were not traveling alone this time. I hope that dream comes true, whether we meet or not the next time. I will always be here open to help. Thank you! Oskar
