Professor Jorge was an amazing guide. His background in history and anthropology combined with his humor and true love of Country made him the perfect guide. Wealth of knowledge and open to dive deep into historical context really helped set the stage for tour and helped us gain deeper insight. We walked a way with a desire to learn more and even asked him for book recommendations. A must for anyone who appreciates history.

We cannot express how wonderful this experience with Jorge was, and I said experience because it was more than a tour but a full day with an expert of the history of Mexico going back 7 centuries, not a small feat! Jorge made us feel at times like we were getting an A+ lecture in a prestigious university, they way he related each pivotal point in history, and others like we were sitting in a park with a grandparent telling us the stories he grew up learning from his ancestors. We knew so little about Mexico and left knowing so much that now I have taught a thing or 2 to family back home. We also loved this was a private experience, it felt so personal and allow us to slow down or speed up as we needed. The anthropology museum is so vast but experiencing with Jorge made it so much easier to appreciate and learn the most important parts of it. I have done other private tours at museums before and also visited museums on my own, but this is for sure the way to go if it's your first visit, it opens you up to so much history and appreciation of what you see.

First, the good: communications up front with Jorge via WhatsApp before we arrived was strong. He also got us bottles of water mid-tour. We got to see both the Castle and the Museum. Then second, the experience itself, which was far from good:: We had an expectation that with a private tour, we would be able to set the pace with our guide while also engaging together throughout the experience. This was not the case. Jorge has a theatrical, lecture-toned, extremely verbose communications style which was surprisingly inflexible (even after we told him that we had already done much research about the locations and wanted a quicker pace - our group was simply two adult couples). He spent the first 5-10 minutes upon greeting us with an affirmation of his 98% approval rating on reviews, citing the reason why 2% of his guests gave him bad reviews was due to mis-expectations. So then, he went on to explain what he felt the expectations were. His touring style is to stop, give a lecture of sorts, always in a circumlocutory way. When we tried to ask questions, he would answer with an extremely protracted set of words which might get to an answer eventually. (Ironically, the next day we learned from another guide a bunch of information that actually contradicted some of what Jorge told us from a historical accuracy standpoint). The tour was structured such that it was 50% this and 50% of solo time exploring the Castle then Museum. Due to this approach, 75% of our time was spent leading up to and seeing the Castle. Unfortunately, there were several miscommunications we had throughout the whole tour that made things even less pleasant that it already was. His approach also left us all uncomfortable not only because of how he communicated but because he was very “touchy”. (Both men/women did not like this). Sadly, this experience was a disappointment. Perhaps he was just having a very bad day.
Good day. I am truly saddened by these comments, most of which are biased and malicious. Let me address them point by point: You booked a short cultural tour for tourists visiting the Castle and Museum for the first time. This involves sharing almost seven centuries of history, which we present through an interactive narrative with three essential stops to provide contextual information and allow for breaks, as the only way to reach the Castle is by walking up a steep hill. I call this empathy. Furthermore, thanks to the tourists' consideration, at the end of these breaks my group enjoys time to take photos and have free time at the Castle, which is greatly appreciated by almost all my clients, but I see that you do not. At the beginning of every tour, I always ask for four minutes to "break the ice," to introduce ourselves, and above all, to reaffirm step by step how the tour will unfold. This helps avoid misunderstandings and maintain our 98% satisfaction rate and excellent feedback, preventing surprises and confusion, especially for clients like yourselves (2%) who didn't read the itinerary and booked simply on a whim, unaware that a short cultural tour requires a structured approach for learning and enjoyment. Now I see that you never followed this plan and showed no interest in either the tour or me. Let me explain: Of the four people, only the two men seemed interested. The women never engaged with us and remained two meters behind or in front of us throughout the entire tour, not listening to anything. I must always respect my clients, so I let the tour flow, focusing on those who were genuinely interested. "Perhaps the women just wanted to see things without listening," I thought. But the saddest part of all is that they didn't pay attention to my suggestions for meeting points, which meant that, due to this lack of communication (on their part, not mine), while I was waiting for them in one place, they decided to be somewhere else. In fact, one of the men in their group even sincerely and honestly apologized to me for their lack of attention and courtesy. Regarding interpretations of history, they will always be interesting and very different depending on who tells them and who listens to them: cultural level, political perspective, openness, and above all, a positive disposition on the part of the listeners, because history has many facets and interpretations. Now I understand why I sometimes received examples of apathy and, I have to say it, racism as well. And to conclude: Remember that you should always read the tour descriptions before booking. Don't forget that your attitude must be positive, patient, and open to receiving information and explanations from different perspectives offered by guides from a foreign country. These interpretations, at least in my case, are the result of many years of anthropological and ethnological studies, which practically all my tourists appreciate and are grateful for (98%). Unfortunately, I'm sorry, it seems not to be the case for you. Be happy and please: enjoy yourselves. FINAL NOTES: 1. I simply hope that my future potential clients will read my response carefully and understand that the comments in this review are biased and intended to damage my reputation, affecting my professionalism and family finances. 2. The reason my tour is private is to respect my clients who made the reservation and to avoid including anyone outside their group. This ensures quality, warmth, and personalized service. This does NOT imply that the tour will be unstructured, as its characteristics are cultural, historical, and short. If you don't like this, I suggest you hire a guide by the hour, according to your availability and personal preferences, rather than a tour that Viator-Tripadvisor has already authorized with its specific timing, format, and features, and which virtually ALL my clients accept and enjoy. Thank you again.
Since this was our first visit to Mexico City, we knew that we wanted a guided tour of the museum of anthropology and the castle. Jorge’s extensive knowledge and engaging manner was the perfect introduction to Mexico City’s amazing history and culture!

We had a great experience...because Jorge is a great guide! He clearly explained all of the "sites" we visited but what was most impressive was the his knowledge and clear explanation of the history and significance of those items. Be aware that there are times when you are on own and you need do your own investigation and thinking. However, Jorge is always ready to answer any questions you might have! All in all, this was a great tour with a great guide!

Jorge did a really wonderful job of relaying the history of the area, both ancient and modern. He is enormously proud of the country, and passionate in his teachings. We found Jorge to be an interesting and engaging person in general, which made our tour very enjoyable. We were referred to him by another couple, who felt the same way !

Very interesting and fun way to spend an afternoon! My guide Jorge was very enthusiastic and had so much to say to add to each experience. His attention to detail was really a nice addition to what I saw. I learned so much and would recommend this tour! Wear good walking shoes! Thank you!
