Program details

Discover the story and art behind two of the most emblematic Mexican painters: Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera. Visit the ‘Blue House’ museum, Frida Kahlo’s home, and the Diego Rivera Studio museum which both exhibit works of art and collections by husband and wife duo on this morning tour full of culture and crafts.

We first visit the ‘Blue House’, home to the Frida Kahlo museum, whose bright blue walls house her personal objects evoking the history and intimate world around her. Her artwork is celebrated for its view on feminism and indigenous roots, all of which you will learn about during the tour. Her husband, Diego Rivera, is our subject for the next part of the tour when we head to the Studio museum of Diego Rivera and Frida Kalho, where he lived until his death in 1957. You’ll get to know the artist’s intimate world viewing his studio collection that mainly revolves around Mexico.



After a morning of culture, we finish the tour by visiting the Saturday Bazaar in San Jacinto Plaza where you can meet the artists and artisans directly. Browse their hand made creations and negotiate with them for unique Mexican souvenirs such as a painting, handicraft, ceramic or textile.
