Very insightful and you will learn a lot about the Aztecs and the Mayan, then if the chance will have it, you will get inside the Bellas Artes for a behind the scenes tour which is really amazing. Only thing I would improve is how to compensate for the whole 9 hours because my tour was already finished after 5 hours.
Could not find the local tour operator. We went to the main entrance and did not see anyone who was obviously our tour group. We asked the museum if they knew where we were supposed to meet and they said they'd already gone in and if we wanted to catch up we had to buy a ticket to the museum which is included in the sightseeing tour package. We bought the tickets and continued on into the museum but never did find our tour group.
This tour was amazing!
