14 Hop-On Hop-Off Bus Tours in Mexico Worth Booking

1.Hop-on Hop-off Bus Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 1,043 reviews · 1 - 2 days · from $21Our pick

Ride Mexico City’s Turibus across Historic Downtown, Polanco, South, and Basilica routes. Hop off for museums, markets, Coyoacán, Guadalupe, and major plazas, then rejoin with one bracelet. Audio is offered in nine languages, though Spanish announcements can overpower the headset commentary.

“All those comments about the Spanish version of the tour being blasted on the bus are true but manageable imo. The bus were recent and clean, and the drivers were good. I did the Centro route which was the perfect way to discover the main spots and take notes to where I wanna go back and spend more time. I will do the Polanco and the South circuits before I go, that’s for sure.”

Solo que no estaba puntualmente a la hora de salida (a las 10 en terminal) decía que debíamos estar por lo menos 15 minutos antes y el coche llegó 10,15, según el personal de la terminal es la hora que llegan todos los días. El circuito lo organizó a gran velocidad. No se detiene en las paradas si no lo solicitas antes o te pones frente al coche cuando estás abajo esperando. La actividad en Aquaworld, espectacular, superó nuestras expectativas. Mike un genio!!”
