An immersive photo and history experience in the historic center of Mexico City, created by photographer Alex Coghe and historian Carmen Surbia.
AVAILABLE IN ENGLISH, ITALIAN AND SPANISH LANGUAGE
3 FORMATS: SHORT WALK (2 HOURS), CLASSIC EXPERIENCE (4 HOURS), DEEP IMMERSION (7 HOURS)
This is not a traditional guided tour.
It is a journey through time, culture and visual storytelling.
During the walk, participants explore the heart of Mexico City accompanied by a professional historian and a professional photographer, discovering the city from two complementary perspectives: historical understanding and photographic vision.
Carmen Surbia, professor of history, guides the group through the most emblematic streets, plazas and buildings of the historic center. She reveals the stories behind the architecture, the transformations of the city, the social and political events that shaped Mexico, and the hidden layers of meaning that most visitors never notice.
At the same time, Alex Coghe leads the photographic experience. Participants are guided in observing the city with a street photographer’s eye, learning how to build strong compositions, read light and shadows, anticipate moments, work with people and capture the soul of the streets.
The tour is designed to be highly interactive.
Participants are encouraged to photograph continuously, ask questions, experiment, and receive live feedback while walking.
You don’t just learn history from books.
You walk through it.
You don’t just take pictures.
You learn how to see.
