Great tour of amazing murals in Mexico city - Really great tour. Diego was very knowledgeable and took his time to explain the entire history of each mural as well as history of Mexico during that time.

A Great Frame of Reference - We were originally scheduled to take a tour of the Belles Artes palace, but the police had the area cordoned off, so Natalia offered to take us on the murals tour. It was AMAZING. She provided a great deal of background about the artists and their relationships with each other. She also did a great job explaining the symbolism of each of the murals we viewed. There is no way we could have understood what we were seeing without her instruction. We feel like we stumbled into a treat and would recommend the tour to anyone wanting to learn about the muralist tradition in Mexico.

Jorge Explains Genius - We met Jorge in the mural section of the Bellas Artes. What a wonderful eye opener to the genius of these artists. Jorge brought the art alive with his animated discussion of the time period, politics and lives of these muralists. Many thanks Jorge for making our visit so incredible!

The Best Tours of CDMX - Of the 3 tours I did in CDMX, this tour was the best by a large margin. The guillas are very intelligent young people. If you are a curious person with many questions, stop searching because this is the right tour for you. Economical, friendly, and detailed. Thanks Diego!

Great tour experience! - My sister and I had Diego as our tour guide and he was amazing! He accompanied us to the archeology museum, the Castillo, the Diego Rivera museum and Belle d’Artes, and he was extremely professional and so knowledgeable. He answered all of our questions and made our visit to Mexico City much more interesting and informative, not to mention how nice he was to spend time with. I would highly recommend this tour company and am so glad we had Diego to take us to all the great sites! He was top notch!
