Itinerary
In the morning, meet your guide at the starting point and get ready to explore the heart of Mexico City, a UNESCO-listed historic center filled with stunning architecture, rich history, and vibrant culture.
Our private walking tour starts with a visit to the Templo Mayor, the remains of an ancient Aztec temple that once stood as the spiritual center of the city. Learn about the rituals and customs of the Aztec people and the incredible discovery of this site in the 1970s.
Next, we’ll marvel at the Metropolitan Cathedral, an impressive symbol of the Spanish colonial era that took over the Aztec city. With its towering spires and intricate façade, it’s no wonder this cathedral is one of the most visited landmarks in Mexico.
Our journey continues to the Post Office, a grandiose building that once housed the Palace of Communications during the early 20th century. From here, we’ll head to the Palace of Fine Arts, a stunning Art Nouveau and Art Deco masterpiece that showcases the best of Mexican art and culture, as it preserves amazing murals painted by prominent artists such as Diego Rivera, David Alfaro Siqueiros, and José Clemente Orozco.
As we make our way through the lively streets of downtown, you’ll experience the bustling energy and rich culture of this vibrant city. From street performers to delicious food stalls, there’s never a dull moment in Mexico City.
