We visited the Frida Kahlo Museum in Playa del Carmen and opted for the guided tour, which we highly recommend. Our guide, Natalia, was excellent—engaging and informative. The tour took about 45 minutes and included a walk-through of storyboards and installations that offer a concise introduction to Frida’s life and art.
We paid $595 MXN for one adult and one student ticket, which included a small white shopping bag featuring Frida’s face. While it’s a fun and educational stop—especially if you’re unfamiliar with her work—it does feel a bit pricey when compared to the actual Casa Azul (The Blue House) in Mexico City, which costs only $320 MXN and offers a much more in-depth experience lasting over an hour.
That said, the Playa del Carmen version is centrally located just off 5th Avenue, so the higher price is somewhat expected given its touristy setting. The gift shop also features some lovely artwork for sale and is worth a browse.
