The SAFEST Ways to Get Around Mexico City ⛔️⚠️

Did you know Mexico City actually has one of the most reliable public transit systems? It’s well connected by metro and bus but it’s also great for walks and bike rides.

And the good news: they’re all safe! — BUT of course, as in any city and place you’re not familiar with, ALWAYS take caution and be aware of your surroundings :)

Walk 🚶🏻‍♀️

We walked an average of 18K steps a day and enjoyed every bit of it. The streets are lined with so many plants and shade and it was almost always nice and cool.

Bike 🚲

We didn’t rent any bikes on this trip, but they have EcoBici everywhere (equivalent of Citibike in NYC!). Perfect for getting away from their notorious traffic.

Metro / Bus 🚍

We didn’t really need to use the metro on this trip but it’s supposed to be very convenient, cheap, and safe. Their buses are also everywhere and typically have their own lanes!

Uber 🚘

Our second most used transportation since the places we went were either close enough to walk or affordable enough to get an uber for. We never had trouble booking and they are a great way to get around, as long as you avoid busy areas & rush hour. From several blogs I’ve seen, avoid hailing cabs from the road.

Save this for future reference!

Mexico City is renowned for its extensive and reliable public transportation network, including the EcoBici bike-sharing program, which allows visitors to explore the city at their own pace. With neighborhoods filled with tree-lined streets, walking is also a popular and safe option. The metro system is affordable, convenient, and provides a great way to reach various attractions. In addition to public transit, utilizing Uber is advisable, especially to avoid the busy streets during rush hour. When visiting, it's crucial to remain aware of your surroundings and exercise caution. Many travelers recommend avoiding hailing taxis off the street for added safety. For a richer experience, combine walking with metro trips to fully immerse yourself in the vibrant culture that Mexico City offers. Don’t miss the vibrant street life, ample parks, and the aromatic street food available throughout your journey. Whether you opt for a bike ride in the Parque México or a leisurely walk through Roma, engaging with locals and venues adds to the experience. Ultimately, with the right precautions and choices, navigating Mexico City can be a delightful adventure!
