DRIVER HIT SECURITY GUARD WITH TOUR BUS. Seriously. What else can I say about this? Well, the Frida Khalo museum is, dare I say, boring? Really. Only go here if you have some strange interest in this person because, for it being a museum, art is pretty much not existing. Most of the place is filled with Frida's and Diego's personal stuff, which makes sense considering it was their house. While leaving this place the driver hit a security guard/policeman with the bus and kept on driving even though we all acknowledged the event and were mortified. As for the "Trajineras" portion of the tour I can only describe the experience as "Paddle boarding on a very crowded sewer while listening to live mariachi music". The tour guide, Monserrat, was the only redeemable thing about this tour. There are way better tour options beside this one. Do yourself a favor and pick something else.
Upon getting picked up from our hotel, and after picking more people from their different hotels, we then proceeded to Coyoacán, the town were Frida Khalo’s museum is. Our female guide was knowledgeable of the story. Upon arriving to the museum, there were long lines to enter, lucky for us, we were able to go in ahead of the crowd. The museum is amazing, full of art, history and just good vibe. After the museum, we had some time for ourselves to wonder thru the plaza and church. We then proceeded to Xóchimilco. Once there, we hopped on a trajinera “boat” which took us on an hour ride. Xochimilco was packed with trajineras which were bumping into each other.
