Description
Discover the grandeur of pre-Hispanic and colonial Mexico on this private tour with round-trip hotel transportation, designed for your comfort and a personalized experience. We begin in Tlatelolco, at the Plaza de las Tres Culturas (Plaza of the Three Cultures), where you'll learn about the three major periods of Mexican history: pre-Hispanic, colonial, and modern. We continue to Teotihuacan, "the city where the gods were born," exploring its majestic pyramids and the Avenue of the Dead. On our return to the city, we'll explore the Historic Center: the Zócalo, the imposing Metropolitan Cathedral, the iconic Madero Street, the majestic Palace of Fine Arts, and the impressive Postal Palace. A comprehensive experience that connects ancient history, colonial architecture, and the vibrant heart of the capital.
