About UsWho We Are The People Behind Y&D Travel
Over Eight Years Showing Mexico City to the World
We are Y&D Travel
Y&D Travel started with a simple conviction: the best way to experience Mexico City
is with someone who actually lives here.
We are a Mexico City-based tour agency founded over 8 years ago by locals who grew up in this city, studied its history, and spent years learning every corner of it — from the ancient ruins an hour north of the center to the floating gardens in the south that most visitors never find. We built Y&D Travel because we believed there was a better way to do tours: smaller groups, deeper knowledge, and guides who treat every traveler like a guest rather than a ticket number.
Today we offer some of the most carefully designed day tours and experiences in Mexico City — from the iconic 3-in-1 Teotihuacan tour to kayaking through the ancient Aztec canals of Xochimilco. Every itinerary we run has been refined over years of feedback, iteration, and a genuine commitment to showing people the real city.
Why Small Groups Make All the Difference
We cap every tour at a maximum of 12 travelers. That’s not a marketing line — it’s a deliberate choice that changes everything about the experience.
When your group is small, your guide can actually stop and answer your questions. They can adjust the pace. They can take you down a side street that isn’t in any guidebook because they noticed you were curious. They can tell you the story behind the story — not just the dates and names, but what it actually felt like to live through the events you’re standing in front of.
Mexico City has over 21 million people, 3,000 years of layered history, and an energy unlike anywhere else on earth. It deserves more than a 45-second stop per landmark. Our tours are built around giving you real time at the places that matter.
Certified Guides. Bilingual. Passionate.
Every Y&D Travel guide is certified by Mexico’s Secretary of Tourism and fully bilingual in English and Spanish. But beyond credentials, what we look for is passion — for Mexican history, for this city, and for the kind of human connection that makes a tour feel like an adventure rather than a lecture.
Our guides don’t read from scripts. They tell stories. They answer questions that weren’t on the list. They know where to eat lunch, which angle to photograph the pyramid from, and why the building you’re looking at matters — not just that it exists.
