A day with Gerson! - Gerson was a very interesting “Guía” and presented both the Museum of Anthropology and Chapultepec Castle in a funny yet informative manner. We thoroughly enjoyed our excursión.

Teens and tweens had a great time - My husband, 15 yo, 12 yo, and 9 yo all took this tour. We learned so much and had such a great time. My two young kiddos did find the first stretch a little tiring, but we had a snack break and they perked right up. Antonio was our guide and he was invested in our learning and enjoyment. Afterwards we hung out in the park and even went to the zoo to see our first giant panda. Antonio gave great recommendations in addition to the tour. I am so glad to know more about Mexican history and people.

Disappointed - We experienced 2 guides. A man and woman. They were friendly and knowledgeable however both of their English was extremely hard to understand so we missed a lot of information. We had microphones for first half of tour but then they took them from us for the castle tour so basically made it even harder to decipher what was being said.

Great Museum, etc., Bad Guide - The museum and castle were amazing, but our guide was really not up to the task. His English was not sufficient for this tour. I recommend you visit the museum and castle, but you'll want a better guide if you need one.
