We couldn’t have asked for a better tour experience. As it was just us, we were able to navigate the museum quickly and efficiently while learning an incredible amount about the groups, time periods, and major themes of Mexican history.

Clara's tour was informative and thorough. She is very courteous and approachable. I highly recommend the tour for anyone interested in pre-Columbian Mesoamerica

Our guide, Clara, was so knowledgeable and showed us around to all of the best areas. She told us about the artifacts and described religious beliefs for us. The museum itself is unbelievably beautiful and fascinating.

Booked this private tour through Viator. The day before the tour, the guide contacted us through Whats App with instructions on where to meet.
We arrived for our tour. The guide wasn't there. I sent a message through Whats App to the guide and they told me to contact the tour operator. We called them and they told us another person had canceled their tour and they sent the message to our guide by mistake. Our guide had been at the museum but left and was on the way back.
At about the same time, our guide sent us a message saying she had a health issue and ad to cancel the tour, not what the tour operator was claiming.
We called the tour company again and now they tell us the guide isn't coming back and they had no one to fill in. They offered to arrange a guide for the following day, but we already had other things planned.

Really frustrating that the guide didnt tell us early in the day they weren't coming. Or even as soon as they knew. They had my number and had already messaged me directly the day before.

Really frustrating to be obviously lied to about why the guide wasn't there and what was going on. We stood around waiting for a guide that wasn't coming back due to their lies.

We were refunded, but it ruined our plans that day and we needed up missing the Anthropology Museum.

We had Ivan as a tour guide. When we arrived he asked if we would mind merging with another group. We had a group of four kids that I specificlly booked a private tour for so we weren't a distraction for other people. We were a little annoyed because the tour company changed the tour time from 10:00 AM to 9:00 because the museum "would be too crowded later." It was not crowded; I'm guessing they were hoping to combine the groups all along. Anyway, Ivan was extremely knowledgeable and we learned so so much from this tour. That said, it really was not a tour geared towards kids. Ivan was almost professorial; not exactly kid friendly. But we learned so much!

Our guide Silvia was outstanding! She is an expert historian of the Meso-american civilization. Silvia shared her knowledge in a charming and relatable manner. We can't say enough how much we enjoyed being in her company. Thank you Silvia for sharing your expertise with us.
