I'm so happy I was able to have Joana's company when visiting the Ixchel museum! She expanded on the exhibit with her knowledge and answered all my questions. Definitely recommend booking this tour if you're interested in indigenous fashion and history!

Excelente tour!!! Joana es una persona muy amable y muy bien preparada en el tema de textiles. El museo es una maravilla, excelente la exposición. Vale mucho visitar este museo pero sobre todo que Joana les de la explicación.
