Made the experience 10x better - Our tour of Chapultepec Castle with Jorge was one of the highlights of our time in Mexico City. The castle itself is stunning, but what made the experience truly special was Jorge’s depth of knowledge and storytelling. He did an incredible job explaining the history of the castle and its role in Mexican history, helping us understand the political, cultural, and historical context in a way that made everything come alive. Jorge was engaging, thoughtful, and clearly passionate about the subject. He also went out of his way to take fantastic photos for us throughout the tour, which was a wonderful bonus and something we really appreciated. If you’re visiting Chapultepec Castle, I highly recommend booking a tour with Jorge. He made the experience far more meaningful than simply walking through on our own.

Don’t miss this! - Jorge was a great guide. He kept me on my toes and engaged me the entire time. He went at my pace and allowed me space to ask questions. I especially loved how well he knew the artwork and could explain history through the art. I learned a ton about Mexico’s history. Another very cool thing was he knew the absolute best places for photos. Don’t miss out on this special experience!

Jorge Knows - Jorge did an excellent job educating us on the history of Mexico which was a very different perspective than what is taught in the US.

Ask for Jorge - Our guide, Jorge was exceptional. His knowledge of Mexican history and its many leaders and his interpretation and commentary of the murals enhanced our tour of the castle. Jorge has an engaging personality and a good sense of humor. Very informative and enjoyable experience. We highly recommend Jorge.
