“Had a wonderful day on this trip. Ruben and Alex were great guides and spoke excellent English. They had great knowledge of all the history and made it very interesting and were approachable with any requests as I needed help with gluten free food for lunch. They made the day great fun as well. Really enjoyed the Xochimilco canal boat ride. Great to see the iconic Frida Kahlo house museum. Would had like more time exploring Coyoacan. Was a really great trip.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 1,348 reviews · 5 hours (approx.) · from $79

Review of Mexico City’s 5-hour Anthropology Museum and Chapultepec Castle tour, with practical advice on pacing, guides, price, and walking.

“Really glad we took this tour ! Learning more about the history of Mexico and the richness of the Mesoamerican culture was among the best parts of our visit to Mexico. Our guide Ligia has more than 20 years experience and it shows in the depth of her knowledge. We felt relaxed walking through the Bosque de Chapultepec and visiting two excellent museums. It was obvious that doing it on our own would have been a far less satisfying experience. Highly recommend”

“An exceptionally knowledgeable and extremely personable guide made this tour and the history of Coyoacan come to life. His passion for the history of the area was only met by his deep knowledge of Frida Kahlo and her life and loves. It's a vibrant and colorful area full of rich Mexican history and political intrigue. If you're fortunate, and you book this tour, I hope that you have Diego as your guide. Truly a five star experience!!”

Review of a private Mexico City tour covering Xochimilco canals, Coyoacan, Frida Kahlo’s Casa Azul, Anahuacalli, and UNAM murals.

“Three of us traveled in a van with our guide Marta and driver Luis. Marta was a history major in CDMX and had a lot of interesting information to share about the murals, Xochimilco, neighborhoods and museums. The tour was in english and she was easily understood. *I would book as early as possible to see the Frida Blue house exhibit otherwise it may not be possible to get tickets to enter. The Anajuacalli Museo was a nice surprise and offers panoramic views at the very top if you don't mind several steps up. I recommend the private tour with Marta anytime. The hotel pickup and drop off, plus excellent…”
