Hello and welcome to one of the most fascinating cities in the world, founded by the Aztecs nearly 700 years ago. My name is Karla, I was born and raised in Mexico City.

Let's embark on a trip, back in time, to explore this fascinating country rich in history and culture.

Overview of your Mexico City tour
Discover the extraordinary murals of Diego Rivera, one of Mexico’s most iconic artists and the legendary husband of Frida Kahlo. Internationally celebrated for his monumental murals, bold colors, and powerful storytelling, Rivera created masterpieces for prestigious patrons including the Rockefeller family and General Motors, and became the second artist ever exhibited at New York’s newly founded MoMA. More than works of art, Rivera’s murals are visual chronicles of Mexico’s history, culture, politics, and identity. Through breathtaking compositions and rich symbolism, his work continues to captivate audiences around the world. Led by a local historian specializing in Rivera’s life and work, this exclusive cultural experience takes you through the museums and spaces that shaped his remarkable career. Uncover the hidden meanings, political messages, artistic techniques, and fascinating stories behind some of Mexico’s greatest masterpieces while experiencing Mexico City through Rivera’s eyes.
