Excellent museum highlighting the life & art of the fascinating Frida Kahlo. The museum is in a very hip & interesting neighborhood. Also don't miss L. Trosky 's museum closeby.
Paul FraitesApril 17, 2016
Great museum, make sure to take the video guide. If you want to take pictures inside the museum you need to pay 60 pesos (stupid, in my opinion but worth it).

Awesome museum. The best in CDMX. To avoid long lines ask for the Bus Combo with Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo museums. 130 pesos

A really good museum: the grounds are gorgeous, intimate bits of her life are scattered throughout, and the art is stunning. Make sure to hit Tostadas Coyoacán and Café Avellaneda afterwards!
Jessica FengFebruary 19, 2018
Collection of Frida and Diego artwork, as well as lovely peaks into what their decor looked like while living here. Line can get long so maybe look into booking online if you’re short on time

Buy ticket online, you'll still have to stand in line for at least 30mins. It's worth it to buy the photography pass so you can take pictures. Takes about 1-2hours to go through. Better than expected!

This was an informative and fascinating tour. The estate is beautiful and I learned so much! Buy combined tickets to visits the Diego Museum as well. Bus fair is included and you save time on the line
Brian StraussMarch 15, 2019
Outstanding! Getting there with Uber is very easy. Make sure to buy your ticket in advance online so that you can skip the massive line out front.
Andrea BarrezuetaApril 15, 2018
Loved the temporary exhibition of her dresses and fashion. But tickets before coming. Come early or stay after to walk around cute Coyoacan. Line up at the museum 10min before. Done in 45-60min.

Lines start forming before 10:30am. We got tickets in advance on the internet but it made no difference. Even though we were first group (11am) people buying tickets the day of were let in before us.
Paula MadeiraDecember 13, 2021
Expensive but AMAZING! It is a must for sure. Be aware, you must pay 30 extra pesos to be allowed to take pictures inside (rip-off). But still, go and be delighted

Pro tip: Buy tickets in advance online so you don't have to wait in line. If there's time, the Leon Trotsky museum is nearby too.

The house itself is beautiful, so it is worth taking a book and hanging out in the garden for a bit if it is not very crowded. My favorite part of the exhibition is Frida's dress collection.
Emily MitnickApril 2, 2019
I’ve made the mistake of not buying tickets in advance online. Expect to waste a couple of hours in line. Go get lost around the beautiful little colorful streets of Coyoacan instead :)
Damon SununtnasukAugust 18, 2017
You absolutely must buy your tickets online in advance. Each ticket has a time slot (30 minute increments) and you should show up to get in line 10 minutes before your assigned time.
SalvadorMarch 24, 2016
Purchasing tickets in advance on their website will not guarantee entrance for the time you purchased your ticket. You should still arrive early (30-60min) before your scheduled time to wait in line.
Parker DayJuly 20, 2016
Everyone knows you should visit the Frida Kahlo museum, which happens to be her big, beautiful blue house. After touring Frida's house, head to the Coyoacan market nearby for some tostadas.
Karin GattringerDecember 9, 2018
Definitely buy your tickets online. Be prepared for tons of people visiting.
P. D.November 26, 2021
Tickets were impossible, but we were in the area so we walked by to take in the beautiful blue building. Looks like that's all anyone is interested in anyway! Maybe save yourself the trouble!
LuciDecember 8, 2014
A must!!!!! Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo is one of the best love stories ever. Go first to ANAHUACALLI that ticket also includes this museum, so you don't pay twice.
Megan MastersApril 17, 2018
A bit crowded, but nice place to stop in Coyoacán to learn more about Frida & Diego. We had issues using us credit card to book in advance - hotel had to help.
Yura YuraJuly 11, 2014
Absolutely a must! There is few places in df of that quality! If u from Russia or know its history, go to Trotsky museum few blocks down! Also a must do!
Fabio SonodaJune 18, 2017
It's really interesting to visit the place! You have the chance to see were Frida Kahlo and her husband (Diego) lived, their work, and a nice garden.
Stefano Da SilvaSeptember 25, 2017
Lots of interesting exhibits, if you want pictures inside of the museum itself you’ll need a special permit which you can purchase when you buy your tickets.
Kindall HAugust 22, 2017
Less about Frida's work and more about her house, clothing, life style and marriage. Line is long to get in so I suggest buying tickets ahead online.
Jef WegAugust 3, 2017
A million people. Buy a ticket in advance. Not a whole lot to look at, you can probably go through in less than an hour
𝙶𝚘𝚗𝚣𝚊𝚕𝚘 𝙰𝚛𝚎𝚗𝚊𝚜December 17, 2018
Buy your tickets in advance - it gets packed and you’ll therefore spend a long time in line if you do not already have a ticket
Margarita KrupSeptember 11, 2014
Frida Kahlo's house and museum where she lived with Diego. Her art pieces and wardrobe are displayed. Must visit.
Zina AlamJanuary 25, 2017
Book tickets in advance to skip lines - it's about a 30min Uber from the city centre. Make time to go to the nearby Mercado Coyoacan for food before/after.
Mathilde LeoApril 2, 2016
The audio guide is worth it. Really nice stories of Frida's life as you move from room to room and explore her past.
Emilce AvilaAugust 14, 2015
Clearly one of the must visit museums in Mexico, just try to make it early to avoid long lines... But it's totally worth it
Max WennekerNovember 20, 2016
Really interesting and well preserved. Get the audio guide, and buy tickets online in advance (can do day of)
SiobhánMarch 30, 2019
The actual Frida exhibit is small and feels quite lacking. The garden area is lovely however. Be warned: it’s an extra MXN$30 to take photos inside.

This place has personal items of the artist. Ask for a guided tour, it's highly recommended. You can watch some screenings about Frida every hour.
Michal TNovember 28, 2017
Interesting, but very overcrowded place. Museum staff is goading visitors all the time, so you are not able to inspect all exhibits as long as you want. Extra payment for photo permit is a bad joke...
ClaudiaMarianaApril 26, 2016
Compren boleto en línea! Buy ticket online! Ticket lines are eternal and if you are in a short visit, you may missed the chance to go in.
Stephanie HagemeisterFebruary 15, 2017
Enjoyed the audio tour ($80), and felt the photography permit ($60) was worth it. Took my time and spent about 90 minutes here.
SiobhánMarch 30, 2019
Buy tickets online ahead of time. We waited about 1.5 hrs in line and didn’t get there long after opening.
Alberto SimonMarch 7, 2017
It was an awesome experience that is a must do for any visit to CD.MX.
Mel M.July 5, 2015
-.The architecture was made by some of the best artist in Mexico (O' Gorman) totally a must see.
Jeremy BassOctober 15, 2018
Also known as "The Blue House" Josh S recommendation. Per Laura H, its kinda a trek and you should make reservations ahead of time
Ricardo da Silva OliveiraApril 8, 2017
Buy tickets online or arrive before opening. This is not an accessible museum a lot of stairs.
Leon PalafoxAugust 20, 2014
Be sure to come and prepare for a great house with lots of art, my wife really enjoyed the kitchen.
Susan LaiMay 24, 2022
You can really see her life here. Watch the Nextflix movie to get a good background on Frida. Have to order tix in advance.
ToryBurchJune 21, 2013
This blue house is where Frida Kahlo lived, worked and inspired. Her personal diary, sketches and final painting are here, along with works of art by her husband, Diego Rivera.
Lauren WoodJune 24, 2018
Buy tickets online ahead of time! And make sure to hang out in the surrounding neighborhood.
Fabiano WaewellFebruary 9, 2016
Very well conserved, friendly staff and great item selection. Also the place is magnificent!!!
Reinaldo ParreirasJuly 26, 2015
Buy your tickets online at http://www.boletosfridakahlo.org and save some time on the line.
Betty LiNovember 30, 2018
Go in the afternoon. Even with advance tickets, line is long (though quick) and rooms get crowded.
Newton DavisJanuary 7, 2016
A must see when in Mexico City. Book online to avoid long lines.
