If I could have given a 10, I would have! - Raúl was an excellent guide. He was very detailed and you can see his passion for the cultures that we learned about. He was also so kind to my mother who was not able to stand for long periods so we took some seated breaks and he would still explain the culture we were learning about. He also is independent so he isn’t connected to a large company which o appreciated. Please check him out!

Great tour of the museum... - Great tour of the museum with very knowledgable guide. A must before your visit to any pyramids in Mexico. The tour made us even more excited to go to Totihuacan and Monte Alban.

A captivating introduction to Mexico's rich history - I can't imagine a better way to experience this amazing museum! Raúl captivated us as he skillfully wove together the history, culture, and art of the three key eras of Mesoamerica. Yes, he's a trained, very knowledgeable anthropologist and historian--but most of all, he's a wonderful storyteller. He brings the artifacts in the museum to life. You will leave with a deep appreciation for each of the civilizations he covers and the connections between them that still inform today's Mexico. Don't miss this great introduction to Mexico's rich history!
