We were visiting Mexico for the first time and wanted to learn more about its culture and history. We were heading to the Teotihuacán Pyramid the next day, but we thought the Museo Nacional de Antropología would give us the background we would need. It was very special to get a private tour in English with Clara. Clara was very knowledgeable about the items in the Museum and it was so great to be able to ask questions. We were impressed and appreciative of her friendliness and knowledge. She was very responsive to us when we needed a rest or a coffee break. We would highly recommend Clara.
I took this tour personally with the guide Karla Cruz.

Edwin was brilliant. He is a true anthropologist and historian. He was able to communicate effectively with a mixture of natives and foreign visitors making sure that we all understood the importance and significance of every time period and artifact in the museum. Edwin was also friendly and approachable. When we had questions he always fully explained with great patience and kindness. Edwin also has a pretty good sense of humor! We also learned how to count like a Mayan! Thank you Edwin for enriching our experience at the museum. You brought the artifacts to life!

Edwin is a fabulous tour guide. He brought us here first and explained in detail the history, beliefs, and culture of Mexico’s many indigenous groups. We then proceeded to visit places in and around Mexico City on the following day that he has talked about during our tour of the archeological museum. Edwin is probably the best tour guide I’ve even dealt with. His knowledge and enthusiasm for the historical significance of Mexico is unparalleled. Don’t waste time or money on other tours!!
A lot of culture and history

My visit to the National Museum of Anthropology was much more than just a tour it was a true immersion into the deepest roots of Mexico, all thanks to the excellent experience organized by Triptlán. From the beginning, the service was punctual, well coordinated, and offered personalized attention that really made a difference. Our guide, who was very knowledgeable and passionate about history, made each section engaging and helped us connect deeply with Mexico’s rich past. I very recommend this tour to anyone interested in having a meaningful and well guided experience in the city.
Amazing service
