Spend a few days exploring Mexico City!

Enjoy a weekend in Mexico's largest city. A sight of the senses enjoying what the city has to offer including local markets and bazaars, a visit to Frida Kahlo's Casa Azul, topped off with a ride down a canal to the songs of a Mariahi band. Certainly a city stopover not to be missed!

Day 1: Mexico City Arrival

Arrive at Mexico City airport, where you will be greeted and transferred to the hotel of your choice. Time permitting, a first walk around will acquaint you with the area of one of the world’s largest cities.

Day 2: City tour: Breakfast

A comprehensive tour will acquaint us with the multiple aspects of this diverse town, once the Aztec capital of Tenochtitlan, today one of the world’s great metropolises. Start with a visit to the immense central square, Zócalo, flanked by the baroque Metropolitan Cathedral, by National Palace. Our journey continues through the splendidly colonial Centro Histórico and to the white-marble Palace of Fine Arts, where invaluable works of art of Mexico’s most prominent painters are in exhibition.

Return to your hotel to enjoy a free afternoon and evening.

Day 3: Teotihuacan Pyramid tour: Breakfast

Morning drive to the Basilica de Guadalupe, the holiest shrine for millions of Mexicans. From here, proceed to San Juan Teotihuacan, a city that flourished several centuries prior to the arrival of the Aztecs; it was probably the largest of Mexico´s ancient cities, the capital of a great and powerful empire. Inspect the awe-inspiring pyramids of the Sun and Moon and walk down the Road of the Dead to the Citadel, wonder at the unique Temple of Quetzalcóatl, with its stone-sculptured plumed-serpent heads, and the masks of rain god Tlaloc. Return to Mexico City and overnight.

Day 4: Mexico City departure: Breakfast

At the required time we transfer you to the airport or bus stop for your departure.
