5.00I was in Mexico City a year ago and was very frustrated that i couldn't get someone to explain in English the meaning behind the murals at the Palacio so this time i decided to book a tour in advance. It was worth it! Our guide, Diego, was great. He had a lot of information and spent time answering our questions. Would definitely recommend him and the tour.

5.00The Interior of the museum is a must see in and of itself. Our guide Diego was extremely informative and gave us some background information which was very helpful. You would not be able to appreciate the Art and the artist’s vision and motivation just by looking at the murals on your own. Context is very important.
Excellent and informative!

5.00Diego provided us with a wonderful in-depth tour of the three key murals from the three great Mexican muralists plus an extended few gems in the gallery. Our tour was at the same time informative and fun. Diego was incredibly knowledgeable and took care to give us time to ask questions. We learned not only about the murals but more broadly about art in Mexico and the historical context of the country. Would highly recommend.

5.00Definitely worthwhile if you're curious about the stories behind those incredible murals. León, our tour guide, was excellent-providing insightful details not just about the paintings themselves, but also their historical and cultural context.
A journey that is very worthwhile
