    Violeta best tour guide
    Egidijus_V, Apr 2024
    Our tour guide Violeta was amazing. Very friendly and helpful. Her history knowledge is immense. Thank you
    Yes to the museum, no to this tour
    Melanie_S, Apr 2024
    Paid a premium for a private tour and then At the last moment was told that someone else would join. She, too, had paid for a private tour. When she learned that not only was her tour not private but would include kids she was furious. It was awkward. It took twenty minutes to sort it out. Total bait and switch that left everyone disappointed. It also seemed that they had some unsatisfying set up for our tour guide so she did her best under the circumstances but overall everyone felt screwed over. Not worth the money. I would not recommend using viator. I also dorms their customer service rude and dishonest. The museum, however, is phenomenal.
    Complete Aztec history in 2 hours.

    Our guide Violetta was phenomenal. She was educated and interesting, showed us so many hidden items and knew more about her history and the museum than anyone could have expected. Fantastic.
    Five stars! The best way to experience the museum for English speakers!
    Kate_T, Apr 2024
    A very memorable visit to the National Museum of Archeology. Our guide, Violetta, selected and highlighted fascinating artifacts and stories from the collection. I appreciated this curation, especially since most of the signage in the museum is in Spanish (so I would have been lost otherwise). HIGHLY recommend.
    Do this!

    Violeta wax an excellent guide and we left the tour with an even greater appreciation of Mexican culture. A great tour to start your trip off with!
    A great museum experience.
    Tom_G, Apr 2024
    Violeta is very pleasant and brought order and understanding to the huge museum. We gained a great respect for Mexico’s history. I highly recommend a tour with her!
    Guide no-show
    David_H, Mar 2024
    Tour guide canceled at last minute. He asked us to delay our planned start. Then, when we arrived, he said “sorry, I can’t do the tour”
    Bait and switch, not a private tour.
    Lucy_M, Mar 2024
    I’m giving the experience a 3 because this was not a private tour as advertised. Our tour guide, Violeta was amazing, she gets a 5/5 but I feel taken advantage of. I was called by Chill N Go Tours, the day before our tour and was asked to change the time of our tour, fine. What was not fine was that when we arrived, on time, our guide was waiting for another group, a large family of 7, and then a third group. Do not advertise this as a private tour and then make it a group tour. We started late as we waited for everyone and Violeta did extend the time for this. Left a sour taste to what was really a lovely and informative tour by Violeta.
    An experience not to be missed in CDMX
    Kathryn_R, Mar 2024
    Our guide Violeta was wonderful. Gracious, knowledgeable and clear. The Anthropology Museum is not to be missed. Fabulous architecture and dramatic relics. We learned so much!! A private tour is definitely the way to see this vast museum. Our children and grandchildren enjoyed it too.
    Anthropology and a castle
    Michelle_H, Mar 2024
    Great visit to museum and chapultepec. Rodrigo was very knowledgeable and patient. We need to go back there is just too much to see.
    Entertaining and educational
    william_m, Mar 2024
    Rodrigo was very personable and knowledgeable about the history of the cultures He was engaging and enjoyed being peppered with questions Only hiccup was he got stopped during the tour for not having credentials but he returned to complete the tour Would highly recommend
    Excellent Informative your
    Alison_H, Feb 2024
    Excellent informative tour. Rodrigo was a great tour guide. Excellent way to get a solid background on Mexican history in a short time period. Group was 8 people plus Rodrigo so small enough to be manageable.
    Private Tour, Museum of Anthropology
    RickyMcGrath, Feb 2024
    Isaac’s knolwedge and enthusiasm were infectious. Developed more insight into Maya and Azteca cosmology and lore
    A great historical tour, I learned so much!
    Adam_L, Feb 2024
    This tour (castle + museum) was a fantastic three hour experience I totally recommend ! I loved finding out about both modern and ancient Mexican history and seeing all the cool artifacts. Isaac was great enthusiastic tour guide. Top tip: just make sure you double confirm the meetup spot. If doing both (castle + museum) it might be one or the other.
    Fantastic local guide!
    Francis_K, Jan 2024
    Isaac was a fantastic guide and truly fun and interesting. He clearly has a passion for Mexican culture and history which he shared with us. We would happily book another tour with him again!
    Enjoyable!
    James_W, Jan 2024
    Our tour guide, Isaac, was awesome and made it easy to understand the rock and complex history of Mexico in a relatively short period of time.
    Must See in Mexico City

    Great tour with Maite. The museum is spectacular and huge. Maite hit all of the highlights in just the right amount of time.

    Amy_L, Dec 2023
    Lorena was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable. She was also full of suggestions for restaurants and marketplaces to visit. This is a huge museum and it was an intense two hours. By the time we finished our tour, we were too tired (and hungry) to look around more, though we would have liked to. It really helps to have a guide like Lorena to digest a museum like this one.
    Response from Host, Dec 2023
    Amy, It was my pleasure to be your guide and I'd hope you enjoyed the rest of your trip thru Mexico City. Thank you for choosing Chill N'Go tours! Lorena
    Worthwhile tour
    Peter_D, Dec 2023
    Our guide, Lorena, was very knowledgeable and nice. Museum is vast. Limited English signage. Having a guide made the collection much more accessible.
