Chapultepec Castle and the National Museum of Anthropology in Mexico City. - Review for Tour Guide – Brenda Nieto Yesterday, I had the pleasure of touring Chapultepec Castle and the National Museum of Anthropology in Mexico City. The castle was a wonderful experience with its beautiful decoration, and the museum was incredibly impressive, showcasing Mexico’s rich history. Our tour guide, Brenda Nieto, was exceptional. She brought great energy, was very well-prepared, and had extensive knowledge about both the castle and the museum. Her explanations about the exhibits and historical details were clear and fascinating. Brenda’s enthusiasm and professionalism made the experience even more enjoyable and comfortable. She is also extremely well-organized, ensuring that every part of the tour flowed smoothly. I want to emphasize that Brenda is a truly outstanding tour guide. I highly recommend her to anyone planning to visit Chapultepec Castle or the National Museum of Anthropology in Mexico .

Fantastic in depth tour of the Castle Chapultepec and Anthropology Museum - Ricardo was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about the history of the Castle and the Museum. Answered all of my questions and allowed me to take my time and enjoy the spaces we were in. Really a beautiful tour where I was often least a little speechless and touched by what I was seeing and the context I was given to better understand what I was seeing.

Highly Recommended - The Anthropology Museum is especially a must-see. Ricardo, who is also a historian, did a great job showing and explaining the important parts of the museum. I highly recommend this tour.

Best historical/cultural tour in CDMX - We are visiting Mexico City for only a few days and wanted to know more about its rich cultural heritage. My husband and I were so fortunate to book a tour with Rick Moreno. He has a vast knowledge of Mexican history and culture and is sensitive to tourists’ ability to absorbed new information. We can only say that if you are interested in a fun and incredibly informative tour, Rick Moreno is your guide!

Must do in Mexico City - Ricardo is a very knowledgeable tour guide! We got to learn a lot of history about Mexico, when the castle was built and who used it. It was really helpful having a tour guide for the anthropology museum section as well. He goes through some key artifacts and sections, then leaves you with time to explore more of the museum if you wish to do so. Great experience and I highly recommend it!

Delightful Historic Tour - Ricardo was such a great tour guide! He kept a group of x15 people ranging in age from 8 years up to 70+ years engaged and interested for the entire tour (about 5 hrs). He is so friendly and knowledgeable, and was just a delight learn from.

Highly recommend this! Learned a lot! - The only the wrong with this tour is that it wasn’t longer, haha! I went solo with my service dog. It’s an intimate group of not more than 8. We got to really learn the highlights and history of the castle and museum of anthropology. I honestly wish we just had one more meal break and another 2-3 hours with Ricardo because his historian background means he is so knowledgeable and helped to paint the picture of history so well. Thank you so much!!!
