Wow! The building is amazing and the show was spectacular. From the dancers to the sets, the costumes, and oh the music! Our guide was informative about the space and the show and made it an easy night of wonder
The ballet show was an absolutely wonderful experience!! Such fast footwork and lovely costumes! It was non stop dancing. The live orchestra and vocal was amazing! Luis was easy to contact and dropped us back safely.
Amazing evening of vibrant dancers telling the story of Mexico. Colorful, energetic, and entertaining evening at the beautiful Palacio de Belle Artes.
Totally awesome and our guide, Felipe, was so nice and informative. One of the most amazing things to see in Mexico City.

The folkloric Ballet of Mexico is a first class performance with hight standard dancers and singers both classical and mariachis. The only negative point is that it was supposed to be in the palace of bellas artes ( that I wanted to visit)but at the last minute the agency told us that it will be in chapultepec palace (outside)which is equally beautiful.

Terrific cultural event and talent. Wished I had a program to know what we were witnessing, but looooved the music and dancing and costumes. Viva Mexico! Easy transport and knowledgeable guide. If at belle arts, Make sure to see diego rivera mural on 3rd floor before show. We didn't have enough enough time to view before the show and it was closed after the show.

The cultural show was excellent - the musicians, dancers, costumes and singers were all top notch. The show was in Spanish and I wish there were supertitles or some printed information in English. We got a general idea of what was being presented but missed the finer details. Our guide Luis Ganem who picked us up at our Airbnb and dropped us off was very helpful and provided a lot of information about the city and the show. He was on time for the pick up and at the end of the show. He even sent us a link for a self guided tour of the museum of anthropology the next day.

We used interliv through trip advisor to go to the ballet at the palace of Fine Arts. They provided the tickets and transportation to and from our hotel. The seats were exceptional and the transportation was reliable and timely. We had a lovely evening at the ballet. We recommend this company.
