Early Access Chapultepec Castle & Anthropology Museum

Joge (George) was very knowledgeable and shared a lot of fascinating information with us. He is clearly very proud of Mexican history and culture, which made the tour especially engaging. It was great to visit both the museum and the castle in about five hours. Since there is limited English information available inside the museum and castle, I definitely think having a guide is worthwhile to understand the highlights and historical context. After the guided portion, you can also spend some extra time exploring the castle on your own. The former royal residence is beautiful, and the surrounding park is lovely as well. Overall, a very informative and enjoyable experience! I would suggest the tour guide bring a flag so it’s easier to find. There were a lot of tourists waiting outside of the museum and it was hard to identify which is our tour

Excellent , was worth it . Got lot of history and ancient beliefs and rituals .

I think the guide (Jorge) was informative but at time got lost in too many irrelevant details. His time management was efficient. It was surprising that he was borderline rude to some people who were not part of our group and were listening to his guided tour. Also with some of the group he was a bit rude when he needed to wait for them or repeat instructions.

Overall, a great experience. Definitely along tour, but very much worth it. You learn a lot about the history of Mexico with Beautiful scenery. My tour guide, Leonardo was amazing & super attentive ! Would definitely recommend! 10/10

An incredibly beautiful place. I went with low expectations and left amazed. Wear comfortable sneakers since the climb is a bit tiring. The museum is sublime; I didn't imagine it would be so, so beautiful. It is worth going a thousand times; the view, the relics, everything is super beautiful and there are dreamlike photo spots. ✨✨

Burson really kept things moving through a lot of Mexican history at both the museum and the palace. It was definitely the way to go!

This was an amazingly enjoyable and informative tour and our Guide, Alexa (Diana Alejandra Aguilar Rios) was impressively knowledgeable and a great communicator and looked after us with great patience and kindness. She did full justice to the venues in the time available.

Was wary as my partner and I (mid20s from Toronto) don’t normally book (long) guided tours, but we are so glad we did. As someone who isn’t the biggest history fan, has ADHD, and an introvert, I did not expect to stayed engaged and genuinely enjoy the entire 5hr tour. We had the pleasure of having Alfonso/Poncho as our guide, who was very knowledgeable, professional, and engaging without being overwhelming! His English was excellent, answered everyone’s questions, and was able to relate and connect with each member of our group, creating a personalized experience. I have never learned and retained so much information from a tour before. Alfonso’s knowledge and passion impressed us all and set-the-bar for all future tours that I may book. Wear comfortable shoes as you will walk and stand majority of the time. There’s a break between the Museum and Castle, and washrooms are available at each site. Tour is both Indoor and outdoors. You can’t bring beverages/waterbottles into the castle. The tour focuses on the important aspects and some rooms/areas are skipped for redundancy. Incredibly happy with my experience and it’s all thanks to Alfonso. Hardly took pictures as I was so busy learning!!

George who was our guide in this tour did an amazing job showing us around this beautiful museum. He shared with us the context and historical background of what was on display and weaved it into an easily understandable narrative. Only thing I will like to point out is that the tour begins at the museum and not at the castle. So, if are wanting to take pictures of the stained glass windows at the castle, you would be encountering lots of people there. Overall a good tour. Highly recommended.

David was an awesome tour guide! He was nothing but knowledgeable at every exhibit we went to. It also helped that he lead us through the park with ease. Sweet, simple and most of all knowledgeable.
