Leonor's Guide to the Palace of Fine Arts - Leonor. Excellent explanation from cultural ambassador Leonor. It was noticeable an academic solidity and at the same time easy to understand. Fluid, empathetic and participatory communication. Open to questions and opinions. Besides learning, I had a pleasant cultural moment.

Informative history lesson! - Tiare was a professional hostess to our party of 4 at the Palacio de Bellas Artes. She reached out the night before to give us meeting details and met us the next day. I appreciated her asking us about how much we knew about the art so she could determine what to share with us. Her expertise in history definitely informed us of the context and layers of the art! I strongly recommend Tiare for anyone who has very little knowledge of Mexican history and wants to know more while in the context of the art pieces. Thanks so much for the effort Tiare - I was impressed how you much you shared with us in such a short time!

Great tour! - This tour was great! The Palace of Fine Arts has incredible art and architecture, with the highlight being the murals. Each mural has a lot of history and a strong political message, and we would have completely blind to the intention of the artists without this tour. Isaac was super knowledgeable, helped us analyze each mural together, and explained background about the history of Mexico. I highly recommend this tour!
