Jorge was a fantastic guide - he took four of us through the history of Chapultepec Castle with knowledge, humor, and even some visual aids to help us put things in context. I would highly recommend hiring him to make the most of your visit.
The guided tour was very appropriate for my family, as Jorge adapted very well to my children's ages to tell them the history of the castle. He kept them attentive and motivated.
Muchas Gracias Juan José por tus comentarios, fue un placer guiar a tu linda familia en el Castillo. Saludos
going with a personal guide was a great experience. His knowledge was very good, answered questions and provided a lot of information
Thank you for your comments, Karen. Regards
Jorge was such an unbelievable guide and made our experience one I will truly cherish forever. I’m going to bring my parents back with me and book another castle tour with him - and you should do the same. What a treat!
Thank you for your nice comments about the tour. Regards
We had an excellent private tour of Chapultepec Castle with Jorge on Tuesday (7/7), and it was one of the highlights of our trip. Jorge is incredibly knowledgeable and informative. He studied History in college, and it definitely shows. He guided us through the castle floor by floor, explaining the history behind nearly every room, exhibit, and significant piece we encountered. His passion for the subject made the castle come alive, and we left with a much deeper understanding of Mexico's history. Beyond that, Jorge was funny, personable, and full of jokes that kept the tour engaging. He never rushed us and took the time to answer all of our questions, making the experience feel relaxed and enjoyable. After the tour, he generously shared a list of his favorite local cafés, restaurants, and places to visit, which we really appreciated. We even learned he was planning to go salsa dancing that evening, which somehow perfectly matched his warm, energetic personality. If you're visiting Chapultepec Castle, I highly recommend booking a tour with Jorge. He's knowledgeable, engaging, and genuinely a pleasure to spend a few hours with.
Thank you Sallie for the nice comments about the great experince you had. Regards
Our guide, Jorge, was fantastic. Knowledgeable, engaging, and funny! It’s amazing how much we would have missed without a guide. There is no better way to visit the castle.
