José was an excellent guide. He provided us with a lot of information about the museum and the works we saw.
José was an outstanding guide at the Soumaya Museum. He was extremely knowledgeable, thorough, and clearly passionate about the art and history he was sharing. His explanations brought the collection to life and made the entire experience both engaging and insightful. We learned so much thanks to his depth of knowledge and ability to connect different works and themes. Highly recommended for anyone visiting the museum!
Jose is a terrific guide ~ knowledgeable, thoughtful, willing to engage with our personal interests. Highly recommend this tour as, otherwise, the museum would be overwhelming. A morning very well spent!
Jose is an excellent tour guide and anyone should be happy to get a tour with him. He is very knowledgeable about history and art and is able to discuss paintings and art in depth that we would never have known on our own. He also speaks very good English.
I highly recommend!!! The tour with Jose exceeded all expectations. The way he conducts the visit is light, dynamic and extremely engaging, making time pass quickly. The explanations go far beyond the works themselves, bringing rich connections with the historical, political and philosophical context. José is very friendly, accessible and demonstrates an impressive intelligence and mastery on the subject. No doubt, one of the best experiences of the whole trip.
Jose made our visit to Soumaya Museum informative and memorable. Attentive and responsive to our questions. Nice demeanor. Perfect pace. Highest marks
We very much enjoyed our private tour with José today. We were able to focus on our specific area of interest in the museum (Mexican) and learned so much! We appreciated his patience with all our questions, and also his knowledge and passion. Muchas gracias!
We had an amazing tour with our guide, Jesús. He was knowledgeable, engaging, and made the art come to life with his explanations. He also took great photos of us throughout the visit, which we really appreciated. Highly recommend booking a tour with him, he made our museum experience unforgettable.
What an amazing museum that transgresses so much of art history. To see a da Vinci so close was emotional and moving. Not to mention all the Rodin, Rivera, Dali, and Monet. Jesus was an incredible tour guide and the entire experience he led with grace and class. Thank you Jesus!
Good guide, very friendly and knowledgeable, is fun and easy to talk to, has very good data to share. 100% recommended.
