Personal Tour Guide Needed - Museum of Anthropolgy

I will be travelling to Mexico City for 1 week in October 2015. I have some plans for the week. One of the plans is to visit the Museum of Anthropology. I've been there in the past and recall it being quite extensive. Since I've "matured" a bit, I really want to know and appreciate its collection. Is it possible to hire a personal guide for the museum? How much should I expect to pay? There will be two (2) of us. Or, does anyone know of a private guide that has the historical background to guide me through the museum? I want to spend 3 and not more than 4 hours at the museum and know that is not enough time. Thank you,

For what it's worth, we were there a couple weeks ago and used the audioguide, which I thought was pretty good.

Try Tours by Locals website. You can book a variety of personal tours. Friends used them in Cuernavaca and DF.

Thank you....sorry about not responding to "lasagna"...just getting around to seeing responses. No it is not too late. We don't leave until October 15th. If you know someone locally, then that would be great. I did think about the audio guide, but am hoping for a live person who can take us through the museum in short time, touching on some important areas, and with historic/educational information.

Thank you,
