      Up close and personal with two iconic artists.
      Christine_I, Jan 2024
      Neene was so very knowledgeable and helpful. She went out of her way to make us comfortable and ensured that we had a wonderful experience. We knew so little about Freda and Diego and we could not have asked for a better guide. Our only regret is that we forgot to tip her. Is there anyway we can do that now?
      Our guide, Neene, was...

      Our guide, Neene, was excellent! She was very knowledge about the Kahlo house and studio Museum ("the blue house") and the lives of Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo. Neene also was very polite and spoke excellent English. I recommend her to anyone planning to do the Kahlo Museum and Studio tour.
      Great tour to understand the life and influence of Frida.
      Scarlet_S, Oct 2023
      Incredible experience. Neene was a great guide. She knew much about the intricacies of life at the Casa Azul and studio of Diego Rivera.
      Great tour through the houses/studios of the artists
      Marcus_W, Feb 2023
      Ciudadella was a wonderful guide - very enthusiastic about Diego & Frida. It was a very interesting tour of the houses/studios of both artists. Also recommended for anyone who did not get tickets to the Kalho museum.
      WASTE OF TIME
      Candice_D, Feb 2023
      This tour was a total waste of time. The time was changed in us 3 times. The tour was supposed to be 3-3 1/2 hours the Diego studio tour lasted less than 30 minutes and we were charged for an entry fee but it is FREE on Sundays ( the day we went). Next we were taken to Casa Azul and got there at 3:50 and our entry tickets were for 4:45. So we were expected to wait 55 minutes, this was considered part of the tour time.
      Response from Host, Feb 2023
      Good morning, Candice, my name is Anastasiya, I'm the director of City Art Tours Mexico. We have been in touch with you. I'm sincerely sorry that you had a negative experience with us and you feel that the tour was a waste of time. It was never our intention you felt like this, it was quite the opposite. Your original reservation was made for this Saturday at 10:30 am, unfortunately as there were the peak dates of the season there were no tickets available for this time. We offered to adjust the reservation for Sunday 3 pm or change the reservation for Frida Kahlo Museum the same day at 4:30 or Sunday 4:30 pm with the partial refund. You kindly accepted the tour for Sunday 3 pm. We adjusted the program of the tour for this time slot and made it private for you. The tour included: - an hour of the museum visit in Diego Rivera Studio: 45 min of the explication and 15 min of free time; - the time to reach Frida Kahlo Museum - 30 min; - 15 min extra in case of the traffic jam, sanitary stop etc; - 60 min - 80 min of the explication inside of the Frida Kahlo Museum and 15 min for additional questions, souvenir purchases, photos The tour started earlier at 2:53 pm, after a 40 min tour in Diego Rivera Studio, Neene offered a free time to take photos or answer the questions you might have, you asked to proceed directly to Frida Kahlo Museum. At 3:39 pm you left the Diego Rivera Studio. It took 15 min instead of 30 min to reach the Frida Kahlo Museum as at that time there was no traffic. In the free time before the museum visit Neene offered a complimentary tour of Coyoacan to the places connected with Frida Kahlo or make a stop for a coffee. Unfortunately, you refused the offer and decided to leave the tour. It's the first time when the waiting time between the museums was 50 min, I'm sincerely sorry about it. We do everything possible to provide the best experience to our guests, we prefer to come 15 min earlier due to the traffic situation in the city on Sunday than to lose the entrance tickets to Frida Kahlo Museum. The free admission for Diego Rivera Studio on Sunday. The costs of the tour includes the guide service, the admission tickets to Frida Kahlo Museum and Diego Rivera Studio, the transportation between the museums. The entrance fee to Diego Rivera Studio is 40 MXP (it's around 2 USD) and it doesn't affect the cost of the tour. What matters is the tickets to Frida Kahlo Museum, they are expensive and have a higher price on Saturday and Sunday. It's true that the majority of the museums and the historical sights in Mexico have free admission on Sunday, unfortunately Frida Kahlo Museum has a higher cost. In general in Mexico the tour companies don't reduce the cost of the tour because of the free admission on Sunday. Once again, please, accept our apologies. I'm sincerely sorry that you didn't enjoy the tour and decided to skip the Frida Kahlo Museum. We honestly write and explain the museum visit rules and we hope for understanding when, like in this situation, you arrived earlier to the second museum. Best regards, Anastasiya

      La información proporcionada por la guía fue vital para comprender el entorno de Frida y Diego. Además la experiencia de ver su obra tan cerca y sus cosas personales es impresionante.
