Carmen was fabulous. She is extremely knowledgeable about Mexican history from the Stone Age through the present. The Anthropology Museum segues in to the History Museum and lets one experience Mexican History in chronological order. This is a long tour and requires some endurance (which Carmen has in spades) but by far the best tour we had in Mexico; I highly recommend it for teens and adults.

It was good to have a guide for the museum to learn more about what we were looking at. Had a hard time finding the tour guide at first and did not realize we were with a group but that was fine. Guide was very knowledgeable and flexible about us adding two more people last minute. The castle was cool but we were kind of toured out and pealed off a bit before it ended. Good experience and would recommend.
