The center of this magical town revolves around a two-story kiosk where you can sit and drink coffee. In one of the corners of the zócalo is the Parish of Santa María de la Natividad, whose construction dates back to the beginning of 1644. The temple stands out for its two Churrigueresque-style altars that are dressed with works by the Puebla painter Luis Berrueco. This area is also famous for restaurants that offer local and international cuisine, its traditional snows and palettes as well as handcrafted mezcal.
Atlixco de las Flores has dozens of nurseries installed, mostly in the Cabrera neighborhood, towards the Popocatépetl volcano. We will visit one of them where you can admire the different varieties of plants that are grown locally. They have specimens for both sun and shade, for indoors or outdoors, for pots or for planting on large areas of surface.
We will visit the Ex-convent of San Francisco located on the San Miguel hill. An architectural gem that will immerse you in history throughout the centuries. We will go up to the access to the Crystal Viewpoint where we will have a spectacular panoramic view of the volcanoes.

What a wonderful day! Atlixco is a charming town with surprises in every corner. Alejandro (tour guide) and Abraham (driver) made it even more special. I highly recommend it!
Thank you for sharing your opinion. It was a pleasure for us to show you around. See you next time ! regards
Though I enjoyed the tour, I feel it was good mostly thanks to the long ride. I was taken to several great points of interest I wouldn't have been able to go without the ride. The price is a bit high for what was provided and I had an issue with Trip Advisor instructions. The ad should have made clear that although my hotel wasn't on the list, the operator would come to my place to pick up. I didn't know and walked from my AirBnB to the Bufon and it was closed. Fortunately, the operator called me and told me to wait at the office to be picked up. I almost missed the tour thanks to this misunderstanding.
Mauricio is a wonderful guide. We walked around town, climbed the hill to the church and visited some churches. I visited just after Día de Muertos and the catrinas were still on display. It was very crowded.
Beautiful colourful little town filled with flowers. Alejandro took me all around the town including the Mirador, greenhouses that ship flowers around the world, and to several installations of “Catrina” around the town for Dias de Muertos and also core area of the downtown.
Thanks Julie for your comments. We appreciate your preference. See you next time!
