Highlights / General details
In a city as big as Mexico’s with its more than 22 million habitants, time and organization is vital to get the best out of this city, and it’s not just big in size, it’s also over 4 thousand years of history; history in which we can submerge walking around the streets, parks, malls, archeological sites or visiting some of its almost 100 museums.
Searching for you to have the best experience traveling in the city of Mexico, we have designed a walkthrough especially for the ones who don’t have enough time to enjoy the city.
Our tour begins in the Anthropology Museum, where you’ll get to admire some of the pieces amongst the vast collection of pre-hispanic art inside of the museum. Our guide will explain pieces like the Sun Stone, also called the Aztec calendar; the Coatlicue, and several other pieces that reflected the thought, lifestyle and religion of the differfent civilizations developed inside the ancient Mexico.
Later, we’ll head to the Historic Center of our city, where the Aztec empire was once seated. Our guide will give you a brief explanation on the Great Tenochtitlan, and the traces that remain as evidence of its existence.
You’ll walk through some of the busiest streets of the Historic Center and the outside of some of its emblematic buildings, such as the Metropolitan Cathedral, National Palace and the Palace of Fine Arts.
In between the Museum and the Historic Center, you’ll enjoy a panoramic ride across Reforma Avenue; where you’ll see several monuments that have shaped and given identity to our city, like the Angel of Independence, Diana the Huntress, and more recently, the creation of the Bicentennial Column.
