Tona expertly guided us through the museum and castle. We would have not been able to navigate these sights without a guide. It’s a lot of walking, but well worth it!

Place was extremely nice and beautiful. We felt very safe and had not problems. Safe area to walk around. Restaurants were in the area but not over abundant. Uber worked great so it was not a problem for restaurants and getting to other parts of city. We were here to visit the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe. Transportation always available. We were very happy with communications with owners. Showers took some getting used to, but over all fantastic place to stay.

We had a great tour with David of the National Museum of Anthropology and Chapultepec Castle. There was so much to see, but our guide made it easy by pointing out the important pieces and explaining the history of the various civilizations that inhabited the land. He also told us the history of the Spanish and French in Mexico, as well as the war for independence and the revolution against Diaz. I would highly recommend this tour so that you can take in all the information, ask questions, and maximize your visit.

We were absolutely thrilled to have Alan as our guide for this tour! His incredible energy, deep passion for his culture, and impressive knowledge of Mexican history made the experience unforgettable. He kept us completely engaged from start to finish — even our 10- and 16-year-olds were captivated and loved every minute of it! This tour is a must if you want to explore the most iconic areas of CDMX and I highly recommend it!

I had an amazing time on this tour. Hector was a fantastic guide who was knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about the history and culture of Mexico City. His explanations brought the stories of Chapultepec Castle and the Anthropology Museum to life. I especially loved exploring the Castle; the architecture, art, and views over the city were unforgettable. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting CDMX.

We had the pleasure of touring the Museo de Antropología and Chapultepec Castle with Alex Gonzalez, and he was truly exceptional both in English and Spanish. Friendly, engaging, and incredibly detail-oriented, Alex brought every exhibit and story to life with passion and precision. His deep knowledge and thoughtful pacing made the experience unforgettable for our entire family. We’ve had many guides over the years, but Alex stands out as the very best. Highly recommended!
