I have lived in Mexico City all my life, but since I started high school I have had to take public transportation (metro, cablebus, trolleybus, metrobus...) And you don't know how happy I am that people from outside the country are interested in our public transport, it touched my heart and thank you very much for making the video. 🇲🇽❤️
I came to mexico when I was only 3 years old From venezuela to Mexico I now live a very happy life and the closest line to my house is the 12 line very good line with a lot of TV and it announces station have relaxing music open gangway and new modern doors When they announce station ''Proxima estacion Calle 11 prepare su descenso apertura de puertas lado derecho'' it also displays on. The Tv's and it haves a light outside that illuminates when the doors open Also. On all lines except for the line 6 have a special model that is rainbow We all mostly call it CDMX because it displays CDMX outside and also it has neumatic lines except for A and 12 Those lines are only metallic wheels. Neumatic linrs are only on Chile and paris (everything I know) and that's my life here Also they have a earthquake alarm The most recent one was a 5.7 one (7 of December 2023) Scary. But good.
Great video! Just spent a week in MXCD and your tips were invaluable. We found the public transportation easy, fast, and clean. A little crowded at times, but no different than any other city. The bicycle system is amazing, we rode 160km over the week, including a Day of the Dead night ride that was a complete blast! Easily the most surprising city I’ve ever visited, great people, food, and culture. Great tip on the cable bus, definitely something to see.
Thanks! We would love to go on the day of the Dead ride! Mexico City is certainly one of our favorite places so far. We plan to check out Puerto Vallarta shortly.
estuve de vacaciones en ciudad de México , y he de admitir que esta ciudad tiene el mejor transporte público no solo de México sino de toda Latinoamérica. tiene una conectividad envidiable . lo único que no recomiendo tomar son taxis, son muy abusivos con los precios. lo bueno que no hay necesidad de tomar taxis con tan buen transporte público.
sinceramente yo creo que gaudalajara tiene mejor transporte publico, no tiene tantas lineas de metro, pero es entendible siendo mas chica, pero por encima de todo, sus camiones o microbuses como les dicen en la cdmx son muy buenos, practicamente todos son nuevos, y encima pasan cada 5 minutos los mas usados, a las afueras pueden llegar a tardar 15 minutos, pero nada que ver con la CDMX que a veces tardan como 20 minutos en plenas zonas centricas
No por nada a la Ciudad de México se le conoce como la ciudad que lo tiene Todo... gracias por hablar y quitar mitos de nuestra hermosa ciudad, cuando la visiten serán bienvenidos, solo ayúdenos a seguir cuidándola.
I’m surprised you tried Cablebús but not the Suburban train that leaves from Buenavista to other tourist spots like Tlalnepantla Centro nor the Tren ligero that goes to Xochimilco, but great explanation, one of the best I’ve seen.
@@ShouldWeLiveHere Tren Ligero is very good. It is the only remaining line of the original super comprehensive city wide tram system. It has been extensively renovated recently receiving a multimillion dollar investment.
@@oleogabalo And you can pay for Tren Ligero with the same Movilidad Integrada card (the metro one you used all along :) I can take you to a very cool museum (which is currently closed but expected to open again in 2024) called Dolores Olmedo, which is super beautiful for Dia de Muertos! It also takes you to the Estadio Azteca, for those into football (soccer).
🙏🏼🇲🇽 muchas gracias por esta información! Voy a visitar pronto y quiero conoser lo más que pueda! Soy mexicana de tijuana pero poco conozco la ciudad y estoy súper feliz de volver a la ciudad!
I am so grateful for this video! On a whim, I bought a ticket to Mexico City from Van. I will be there in July for 2 weeks. I thought my city had good transit, but I just got schooled. I’m a solo traveler, and loved learning about the pink seat buses. I noticed some of the words were also in English, so while I am a bit scared of going, I know I can do it😊
The machines to buy and load your mobility card had the option to choose English. It’s hard to beat the view from the Vancouver Skytrain but I’m sure you’ll have an amazing time! Mexico City is one of our favorite places and we can’t wait to return. Be sure to also watch this video to get an idea of some things to do. ruclips.net/video/V8dQSD8fZmM/видео.html
As a local I give you an advise: If you ever come to mexico city avoid using the white/pink taxis (most of them are dangerous) ,instead use uber , didi, etc are 100 safer and mosst of the time cheaper.
thaaaaank you for being a foreigner that not only stucks to the Condesa-Roma area! Mexico City is much more than that! this video is so well documented, 10 out of 10
Ive recently been interested in Mexico's future projects in transportation infrastructure. The country is finally becoming what ive always hoped for . Cant wait to visit again the country has changed so dramatically since 2010.
This is a very informative video and helpful, as so many other travel information books and websites discourage the use of public transit in CDMX. We always use public transit, not just where we live (Vancouver) but when we travel, especially in cities. Thank goodness I found your video; we will be in CDMX in four weeks and will use transit now that you have dispelled all the myths from the other sources that discourage transit. They don't know what they are talking about.
Glad I came across this very informative video, Thank you :) I'll be visiting Mexico for the first time in December. Very excited. will arrive in Mexico City, and plan to spend about 4 days in the city before exploring other parts of the country.
I mean, I've been using this travel method for more than 7 years now, and while yes there's some things I really like... I still live in the State of Mexico and I have to travel 6 hours a day, in reduced bus sits and overcrowded places to my way home, so not everything is as pretty as it seems... I'm still glad we have this public transport, idk what my life would be without it
Thank you so much, this was super informative! I didn’t realize Mexico had such an awesome public system. I’m thinking it might even be better than what I’ve experienced in Europe: 👍🏼👍🏼Your content was super!!
Do/Will you have any information on Queretaro? How to get around, things to do, pros vs cons, etc? Would appreciate any information you can share. Thoroughly enjoyed this video and the one you have about reasons to love CDMX!
Thanks very much for putting this vid together, I loved the cable cars and the Sunday cycling. I prefer the metro if you can take it, 5 pesos no matter where you're going. Thanks once more!
fun fact: Mexico city uses symbols displayed at stations or signs and the symbols are there to represent different forms of transportation and stops. the reason is that illiteracy was taken into consideration. you don't need to know how to read in order to get around. and since Mexico has 68 national languages including 63 indigenous, not everyone can speak Spanish or read.
Very helpful video, thank you! Do I need to pick up a separate ecobici card from their office or can I just register via the app and then use my metro card to scan at the bike stations?
You only need one Metro card that you can use for everything. Create an ECOBICI account online or on your phone, and then you can link your metro card to it. The metro card has a number on the back that you enter. You then use your metro card at any bike station. A couple times the card didn’t work- I think it may have been because the bike was charging. We just went to the next bike in the rack and it would work.
The electric peddle assist taxis are great too. Half the price of other taxis and can operate on streets, against traffic and even on sidewalks. Has good suspension for a smooth ride.
I’m in CDMX now and I wish I saw this video first! I changed from Metrobus to the Metro and didn’t realize until then that free transfer doesn’t work and you’ve to pay for the ride again. I also took the normal red bus (not the Metrobus) thinking that I can use the Metro Card but alas that wasn’t the case! They only accept cash! 8 peso
What a great video from the point of view of a foreigner! Quite venturesome taking the cable bus to the outskirts of the city. I've never done that even when I live in CDMX (although there's no practical reason for me to go there). Thank you for visiting.
Hello : Your viedo is very helpful for everybody who want go to Mexico city thank you. Would you please tell me , I will use the Metrobus Line 4 , from Mixico Airport to my booked Hotel , the Hotel near the Stop Juarez , but I see the map Line 4 , Stop Juarez on the reverse direction , I feel confuse , what is your recommend? thank you .
I’m Mexican. Public transportation in Mexico City, I’m proud to say, is the best in the continent! Now in the State of Mexico, that’s where it’s very bad. The total opposite of Mexico City.
Thank You Thank You Thank You for this video! It answers so many questions I had. One thing I still need clarity on: In one part of the video I believe you said that when you are taking the Metro Bus, you have to pay for each bus you transfer to. Later in the video, however, I thought I heard you say that you can ride and transfer buses up to two (2) hours on one "pass" (?). Will you explain this to me so that I understand this better? Thanks.
I’m glad you found the video helpful. 😁 You can transfer from one red metrobus to a second red metrobus within two hours of first swiping your card. You can’t transfer a different form of transportation such as the metro or a blue Trolebus or to anything else without paying again.
@ShouldWeLiveHere Ahhh, OK. Thank you! Will you get a bus pass or something to show on the next bus (within the two hour window), or do you just scan your card again but it doesn't deduct an additional fare?
Good video, Correction the CD-MX population is about 9 million, the Edomex is about 17 million and rs beside CD-MX, wrongly people must of the time are confused. about it.😊
Yes Mexico City itself is a lot smaller than the Greater Mexico City metropolitan area. The houses went on forever from our view from the Cablebus. I wonder if we were seeing more than just Mexico City.
El Estado de México es otra administración (México, como país, está dividido en 32 estados o entidades administraticas, incluyendo la Ciudad de México). El Estado de México es muy grande y casi rodea a la CdMx, pero ya es otro estado. En la actualidad ambas entidades intentan coordinarse para darle viabilidad a la Zona Metropolitana, que se ha vuelto enorme. Es como en Argentina, que Buenos Aires capital está rodeada por el llamado Gran Buenos Aires, que realmente ya es otra entidad. Saludos.
México its very huge beatiful City l want to go to México tiene a lot airplane Parks skycrapers buildings restaurants and biger malls its increíble im Dreams know México its anoche World ❤
I'm in my 50s in University educated and I still can't figure out how to take transit either Subway or bus from Central to the airport. Or Polanco to the airport. Can somebody help me
People from CDMX like to talk thrash about the transportation system not knowing that other cities/countries have it much worse. A while back a reporter from Bogota Colombia visited CDMX and asked a lady what she thought of the Metro, she said 'it was horrible' the reporter then said 'Ma'm it would take us 50 years to get what you have if we had the money and started building today'😂
We did sometimes use our phone for the bikes but preferred using the mobility card. While in Mexico City we often struggled to get a good internet connection - both using our Telcel SIM card and with the free Wi-Fi.
@@ShouldWeLiveHere hi. I appreciate the response. I was actually meaning of they had unlimited subway card ( maybe like in NYC which you can use for subway +bus)? Thanks again.
@@mathbyleoHi, the Metro card will allow you to take the MetroBus and the metro subway system. You just get the card and refill it as needed. So you can’t really get just a weekly unlimited card. And you can’t transfer for free from the metro bus to the metro subway. Thanks again for watching! Hope you enjoy a trip to Mexico City….
Transport in CDMX is amazing. Bike lanes... Buses... Metro. I was knocked of my bike there, someone at a red light opened their car door on me, but like any city... Don't be an annoying Gringo, and you'll be fine. Plus don't wear smart watches or rings and make sure to wear your bag like the locals (infront of you).
Does this apply to foreign visitors or only Mexican citizens/residents? Also how does it work, do you have a special pass or just show some sort of id?
It applies to all. over 60 the trams are free. Buses and trains are privately owned so you still pay those. All government museums are free to all on Sunday
Local Mexico City citizen here, a few advices if you use the public transport, -metrobus lines 1,2 and 3 can also be paid with any nfc car or digital wallet -if your arrived at terminal 2, do not try to calling any kind of taxi that is not the ones from the airport, for some the reason it's not allowed there -DO NOT USE microbuses, combis and the purple buses, there unrealiable, the drivers drive in a dangerous way and it's quotes are extremely inconsistent -And there is also a "mini metro" line at the south, it starts at the south terminal of line 2
Había muchos buses y combis independientes pero eran más difíciles de usar que los metrobuses y el metro. ¡Además, el metro, los metrobuses rojos y los trolebuses azules eran muy asequibles!
Cómo se ve que el gringo no se fue a pasear en el transporte público de las seis de la mañana a las nueve de la mañana o de las seis de la tarde a las nueve de la noche Cuándo dice que le platicaron que había mucha aglomeración en el transporte público, no cabe duda que cualquier extranjero puede decir lo que sea
I don't believe what you said, you really don't know what you are talking about, I can see that it was your first time in Mexico city using all their beautiful ways to transport, also you have to stop talking all the time about "danger". You know that is much more dangerous in many US cities.
What part don’t you believe? My goal was to help other people try to get around Mexico City without a car? Public Transit in Mexico City was far better than expected.
The Public transportation in Mexico City is way safer than NYC system! Wayyy more eficiente than Miami public transportation (where I live) So just for your information! And WAY cheaper too.

We shared a card on the bus. I’m pretty sure to use the bikes you would each need to sign up for your own account.
17:00 that is possibly a fake taxi.
Interesting- I think you are right!
CDMX is beautiful, but you also have to know how to walk down the street, it's very similar to New York
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you!❤️
You should try the tren suburbano :)
We will definitely give that a try on our next trip! Thanks
Transport in CDMX is amazing. Bike lanes... Buses... Metro. I was knocked of my bike there, someone at a red light opened their car door on me, but like any city... Don't be an annoying Gringo, and you'll be fine. Plus don't wear smart watches or rings and make sure to wear your bag like the locals (infront of you).
I'm 76 so buses are free for me. I much prefer the trains as getting off buses can be a problem.
Does this apply to foreign visitors or only Mexican citizens/residents? Also how does it work, do you have a special pass or just show some sort of id?
It applies to all. over 60 the trams are free. Buses and trains are privately owned so you still pay those. All government museums are free to all on Sunday
Local Mexico City citizen here, a few advices if you use the public transport,
-metrobus lines 1,2 and 3 can also be paid with any nfc car or digital wallet
-if your arrived at terminal 2, do not try to calling any kind of taxi that is not the ones from the airport, for some the reason it's not allowed there
-DO NOT USE microbuses, combis and the purple buses, there unrealiable, the drivers drive in a dangerous way and it's quotes are extremely inconsistent
-And there is also a "mini metro" line at the south, it starts at the south terminal of line 2

Imagine ppl from the US thinking public transport in Mexico is dAnGeRoUs 😂 they do live in their own bubbles 😂
Trolley = 4 y 7 pesos, Metrobús = 6 pesos :)
Ni menciono a las combis, por qué ahí si los truenan
Había muchos buses y combis independientes pero eran más difíciles de usar que los metrobuses y el metro. ¡Además, el metro, los metrobuses rojos y los trolebuses azules eran muy asequibles!
Cómo se ve que el gringo no se fue a pasear en el transporte público de las seis de la mañana a las nueve de la mañana o de las seis de la tarde a las nueve de la noche
Cuándo dice que le platicaron que había mucha aglomeración en el transporte público,
no cabe duda que cualquier extranjero puede decir lo que sea
?

Naaa

I don't believe what you said, you really don't know what you are talking about, I can see that it was your first time in Mexico city using all their beautiful ways to transport, also you have to stop talking all the time about "danger". You know that is much more dangerous in many US cities.
What part don’t you believe? My goal was to help other people try to get around Mexico City without a car? Public Transit in Mexico City was far better than expected.
No mas gringos que no hablan español.
…
si vienen de turistas no hay pedo, si vienen a gentrificar entonces si que vayan a la vrga.
The Public transportation in Mexico City is way safer than NYC system! Wayyy more eficiente than Miami public transportation (where I live) So just for your information! And WAY cheaper too.
Hello my Friends perfec, welcome to MÉXICO city
Thanks for watching! The public transportation there is unbelievable.
mexico citylike 212
Hasta en Estados Unidos sus principales ciudades tienen barrios pobres no seas ignorante
De acuerdo: muchos lugares en Canadá y los Estados Unidos tienen un número cada vez mayor de personas sin hogar y que viven en tiendas de campaña.
Por que hablar con tanta agresividad? Eso lo sabemos todos y sin necesidad de mencionarlo.
Mexico city is like a conutry lol
En población es más grande que varios países Latinoaméricanos juntos 😅
