His passion for the history of the area was only met by his deep knowledge of Frida Kahlo and her life and loves. It's a vibrant and colorful area full of rich Mexican history and political intrigue. If you're fortunate, and you book this tour, I hope that you have Diego as your guide. Truly a five star experience!!”

Everyone in the group had skip the line tickets but they were just timed entry. We lined up for 35-40 mins. This is false advertising. Or at least make it clear. The guide was surprised you had it marked as skip the line.”
