“Our morning with Rafael was the quintessential Context experience - and why we keep coming back. We saw a part of Tokyo we would never have experienced on our own, but more importantly we left with a deeper understanding of Tokyo, why it’s developed the way it has, and how its citizens actually live their lives. So much more valuable (and interesting) than simply seeing the sights.”

“William literally writes the book(s) on the D-Day memorials which led to an incredibly informative day tour. From age 77 to 11, we were all captivated by his knowledge and his ability to connect the dots.”

“Fantastic way to learn or refresh your understanding of key aspects of the history of Britain... One of the great things about a Context private tour is your guide. You can tailor your experience to your group's individual interests. This was our third Context tour. We are 3 for 3 in terms of top shelf guides, each very knowledgeable and personable. Highly recommended!"

Rodrigo was fantastic. He was knowledgeable, fun, and he tailored the tour to our interests. This was a perfect way to familiarize ourselves with the history and development of Mexico City.
Really great intro to San Miguel de Allende... a mix of history, stories and insider tips presented by a truly expert guide. Luis had a easy going conversational manner, was very friendly and had well planned out tour of the city center. Thanks Luis!
Rodrigo gave a "high-yield" tour.. in two hours, he imparted so much information about the history of Mexico, the history CDMX and the artists at the Bellas Artes. Though the tour packed a lot of information in two hours, it was well paced, engaging and well timed. We really appreciated how good he was when we went to other sites, like the Frida Khalo museum and the MNA. Really a superb guide.
