What to expect:
Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera helped to define Mexican modernism while engaged in a tumultuous romance. On this Frida Kahlo Tour we’ll get a glimpse into the life of Mexican artists.
Our visit will take us to the Frida Kahlo Museum, or Casa Azul, her former abode and where many of her self-portraits were created. We will get a sense of how she once lived and worked. We’ll engage directly with her history as we surround ourselves by her artwork, her clothing, her photos, and even the prosthetics, and corsets she wore as a result of childhood polio and a horrifying train accident in 1925.
Wheelchair accessible. Public transportation options are available nearby. Suitable for all physical fitness levels. Operates in all weather conditions, please dress appropriately. If you arrive late you might loose the entrance at the museum. The itinerary might change due to the availability of tickets. In some areas of the museum the stroller must be carried by yourself in your arms, due to architectural restrictions. Please note: if you need the wheelchair, you will not be able to access all the areas of the museum, due to architectural restrictions. It is important to know that Frida Kahlo museum may be subjected to occasional closures without previous warning from the museum management (as usual it happens during high season). When this occurs, we will provide guests with an appropriate alternative if the museum opening time is delayed more than 1h from the tour starting time. In these cases we are unable to provide refunds or discounts. No large bags or suitcases are allowed inside the museum, only handbags or small thin backpacks are allowed through security. Some specific rooms inside the museum are subjected to a very quiet or restricted right to speak inside, in this case your guide will provide the information about this places before entering the specific rooms where this rule applies. Some collections may vary along the year.
During the tour we will visit Frida Kahlo Museum, her former abode and where many of her self-portraits were created. And Leon Trotsky’s house, who influenced both Rivera and Kahlo’s life
