Chapultepec Castle (Castillo de Chapultepec)

Sylvia was the best tour guide we had in Mexico City. I wish we had known about her sooner in our trip. She is very knowledgeable, patient and we enjoyed the tour very much. I highly recommend her as a guide.

Wonderful tour and guide! Lots of post Spanish conquest information. In depth info and a must see to understand Mexican history from 1821 to 1915.

Very interesting tour! Our tour guide Jorge was funny, down-to-earth, very learned and able to explain artifacts and history in detail and in practical sense. We enjoyed Jorge’s company and our driver Hector was very accommodating and helpful too. They both recommended some of the best Mexican food in the city. They’re both entertaining! Love it! Highly recommended tour! This tour is a must!

Andres is a great tour guide! Very knowledgeable and explained all clearly. Also very accommodating.

The tour guide and driver picked us up at your hotel - fantastic and so easy for my wife and I! Chapultepec Castle looks like it was teleported from Europe, you’ll recognize a bit of Windsor Castle & Versailles. Our guide filled us with info on the origins of the Mexican people, the many revolutions and great details on Mexican leaders through the years - both good and bad rulers. Castle has beautiful gardens and courtyards, this was the “Mexican White House,” and is furnished with historical furniture and the array of jewels and work done by craftsmen will stun anyone who doesn’t think Mexicans as world-class craftsmen! This is an aggressive walking tour that takes you through Chapultepec Park, twice the size of Central Park. Don’t visit the Anthropological museum or castle without a guide - you’ll waste too much time trying to figure out what to see! It would take 3 or 4 days to tour and grasp the entire anthropological museum, but the guide packed the most critical and informative aspects into a great tour! Aztecs, Mayans and every other ancient Mexican civilization is featured - and a couple of tombs on display are massive & beautiful! Go early to the castle because it gets very crowded by noon. This was an entertaining tour because our guide was an encyclopedia of into. Having a driver allows the drive to focus on info during the drive to the castle, then the driver meets you and the guide at the museum with tickets - that mean in waiting in lines! Spend some time enjoying the Tree of Life “waterfall” - the work done by sculptors both past and present are on display throughout the museum. You’ll build an appetite during this tour - and that workout can be rewarded with a big, tasty dinner at one of dozens of great restaurants in the Polanco neighborhood - the most beautiful and exclusive n’hood is all of Mexico City. I’d suggest staying in the Polanco due to its beauty, food, architecture and a true n’hood feel. It feels like one of those old NYC n’hoods from back in the day, with residents easily mixing with tourists as they sit side by side at indoor/outdoor eateries.

José Luis was a wonderful tour guide. He was really attentive to my mom having diabetes, he pointed out every restroom she could use and happily took many breaks for pictures & rest. He was also really patient waiting when we would translate to our parents after he explained in English. He adjusted the picnic so we would have vegetarian options as well. This tour was one of the most memorable parts of our trip. The tickets & lunch were included, as well as pickup to and from our hotel. The tour lasted about 3-4 hours.

My family and I enjoyed this tour. Our tour guide was Fabio. The tour was informative and our tour guide was extremely detailed and knowledgeable. My favorite part was the Chapultepec castle! I highly recommend this tour!

Absolutely wonderful tour! My husband and I learned so much from Alicia our tour guide. I had visited the castle before but I found out so much information that I didn’t know prior thanks to how knowledgeable Alicia was. She answered all our questions and had such an easy doing disposition. My husband and I had a blast! Would highly recommend!

We enjoyed the tour and appreciated the information provided by the guide. He was very friendly, courteous and knowledgable

Jose Luis was our guide. They were punctual, and very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. After the tour he even asked us about our food preference and made reservations and dropped us there. It was private tour - I would highly recommend.

Jorge provided impeccable service to us during our day together. As soon as I made the booking, Jorge reached out via What'sApp to firm up the details and get a sense of our priorities. He offered to make reservations for us, sent over some suggestions for other parts of our trip and then provided details for our pick up. Jorge was right on time for the pick up. We were able to do an incredible amount in one day -- from the Anthropology museum, viewing Diego Rivera's most famous murals, to the ruins in the city. Since we didn't have time to fit in the castle, he offered to take us the castle on another day for free. So we met him there on Sunday (and of course provided a tip). He was over the top nice, accommodating and fun. Great job, Jorge!

The guide was very knowledgeable. I would have preferred a little less time in the castle and more time with the guide in the Anthropology museum
