Yann was fantastic! Having a top notch tour guide makes all the difference! - Yann was fantastic! He has a law degree and is going back to school for his history degree. With this he is a wealth of knowledge and is able to provide the story and how historical events are interconnected instead of just giving fast facts. I have done tours at the Vatican, Florence, Cartegena, and other parts of Mexico and Yann’s tour was beyond the best. Next time we go to Mexico City, we will be sure to use Yann.

Hidden gem ! - I almost skipped this destination but that would have been a mistake . A real gem with some beautiful architecture history and art. The splendid views of the forest are worth it alone. Yann our guide really helped bring it ll to life and adjusted the tour to our interests and was patient as we took so many pictures!

Beautiful Castle Chapultepec - We were unable to fit this tour in on our last trip to Mexico City so it was a “must see” this trip. We had an awesome tour guide, Omar, who knew so much about the history of Mexico. He was very interesting, kind, professional, and so knowledgeable. We had him as our guide for a Frida and Diego tour with this company and enjoyed him so much we requested him for the tour of Chapultepec. The castle is truly spectacular, beautiful stained glass, furnishings, and the history of Mexico is so rich and interesting! Love a small group tour because of the personal touch and would recommend this tour and Omar!

Castle Tour with Isaac - Our English-speaking tour guide Isaac is the consummate professional. From showing up on time at the meeting point to sharing with us his expansive knowledge of Chapultepec Castle, its history, and the surrounding area. Thoughtful and considerate, he also went at our pace throughout the tour, answered our many questions about not only the castle’s history but Mexico’s history in general, and stayed with us until we ordered our return Uber ride to our lodging. We felt very safe with Isaac.

Highly recommended - A must-do for a first time visitor to Mexico City. A great key to a lot of history, and visually spectacular. Our guide Maite was absolutely great. We got far more out of the experience than if we has tried to figure it out ourselves.

Sara was an excellent guide. - Sara is very personable and knowledgeable. She gave an excellent historical account of a very tumultuous period in Mexico's history. The castle is beautiful and the views of the city below are magnificent. The climb up the drive is not easy but if you take it slow its okay

A Magical Palace - We had a great time. It really makes a difference when you have a tour person. Cynthia was amazing! She was very knowledgeable about the history of the palace. I’m very happy we had her! Without her we would If just walked around looking at the palace. She takes you back in time the way she speaks.
