Frida Kahlo’s Blue House: Tour with Certified Guide

Mexico City, Mexico

2 hours to 2 hours 20 minutes (approximately)
Offered in: English and 1 more

Frida was born in this house, painted in this house, and died in this house. That is why the Blue House doesn't feel like a museum: it isn’t just a collection—it’s her life, left exactly as she spent it.

You'll see her studio with her paintbrushes set out, her wheelchair positioned before the easel, and the traditional dresses from Appearances Can Be Deceiving—worn both to look magnificent and to physically support her body. Outside lies the garden, where she spent countless hours when her body simply couldn't give any more.

A local guide shares the stories behind every room: the life-altering accident at 18, her long years in bed, Diego, and everything she created through it all. Small groups, no rush.

Timed-entry ticket included, plus admission to the Anahuacalli Museum.

    Museo Frida Kahlo

    You enter the museum accompanied by your guide at the assigned time. By policy of the Frida Museum Kahlo, no guide can give explanations inside the exhibition rooms — it is a rule of the premises that applies to all agencies. That's why your guide gives you the complete tour in the Garden and the Patio of the Blue House: Who was Frida at each stage of her life, what you will find in each room, what to look at when seeing his personal objects, the corsets he wore and the collection "The Appearances are deceiving. After you tour the rooms at your own pace, already knowing what you are seeing. Your guide stays with you in the garden during the entire visit: it answers any questions that arise inside, it takes photos and accompanies you until the end of the tour.

    2 hours Admission ticket included
