During this private walking tour, we will visit the National Museum of Anthropology, considered one of the most visited museums in the world where you will be able to perceive the history of the Mesoamerican civilizations that flourished in an area whose climate and vegetation gave origin of civilizations.
We will visit three of the most important rooms, starting with the Teotihuacan Room, the Mexica Room and the Mayan Room. Let yourself go back in time where great civilizations created great monuments and advances in the field of astronomy and mathematics.
After this interesting guided visit, we will walk inside the park getting into de woods and ascend to the ¨Mountain of the Crickets¨ to discover the unique "Royal Castle" of the America. But in between, we will have free time to get any snack and refreshment beverage and relax.
Definitely an experience you cannot miss!

Very disappointing experience. The tour guide was supposedly bilingual but struggled with English. He did not know relatively basic Mexican history. Even when he explained a few things in his native Spanish to my Spanish-speaking friend he for example did not know the names of several of the more famous Mexican president’s or anything about the timeline of when Mexico became independent. Not knowing the overall big topics of Mexican history is a big problem during a history-based tour. During the museum visit he simply read aloud from the signs next to exhibits. The guide also stepped away several times and we could hear him trying to arrange dates and taking social phone calls during the tour. It was also inappropriate that he asked personal questions about our income which was totally out of context. He also shared a lot of unsolicited political opinions about various things happening in the world today which was also totally out of context. Overall, I will choose a different tour company that does not employ a guide like this one.

Edwin was a superb guide. He was incredibly knowledgable, friendly, and a joy to spend the day with. We learned so much about the history of Mexico and their people, great experience. Thank you Edwin for an amazing day!

Our tour started at the Museo de Antropología and then Castillo de
Chapultepec, which was a good transition from receiving an
overview of the Olmecs, Mayans, and Aztecs and ending with a historical
overview of the 18th-19th centuries at the Castle. Our guide, Francisco,
was very engaging, passionate, and extremely knowledgeable about Mexican history and culture. My family’s cultural heritage is Mexican and Francisco did a wonderful job of providing in-depth explanations for our understanding and learning (group of 4 adults).
Some of us speak Spanish (albeit rusty) but it was great that he moved back
and forth to English/Spanish for our group. We all became aware of
how diverse Mexico City is to this day, represented by indigenous people,
Europeans, Middle Easterners, and so many more cultures — a city rich in multi-cultures. We appreciated that Francisco joined us for a quick lunch where we continued the conversation and would definitely book him again!

Had an excellent time during this experience and would highly recommend it. The tour guide was very personable and extremely knowledgeable. Communicated greatly and timely, he was very flexible with adjustments on the agenda and path of the tour.
I would recommend this very highly to anyone that wants to visit CDMX Chapultepec Castle and Anthropology Museum.

Francisco was an awesome tour guide. He is very knowledgeable and was able to give a very clear and thorough summary of the anthropologic history of the mesoamerican region. This was an excellent way to pare down what would have been an overwhelmingly large amount of information overload from the Anthropology museum and the Chapultepec Castle. Highly recommend!

We went to the Chapultepec Castle and the Anthropology Museum. Francisco met us at the agreed location and walked us around the castle. He had tons of information about the castle and even related it back to American history for us. He offered to take our picture at specific spots and adjusted the tour so we could see things that we were interested in. After the castle, we took a short break and toured the anthropology museum. Francisco went above and beyond in providing extra detail and answering all our questions. I definitely recommend him as a guide!

Héctor was an incredible tour guide who gave us such a deep insight into some incredibly interesting pieces of Mexican history. We learned about symbolism and then how we could recognize it throughout much of the pieces we saw in the museum and then transitioned to teaching us so much at Chapultepec castle. It was out first full day in Mexico and I can’t think of a better way to have spent the day.
