Overview

This small-group van tour begins with a one-hour visit to Palacio de Bellas Artes in Mexico City, a cultural landmark known for its marble architecture and murals by Rivera, Siqueiros, and Orozco. Afterward, the group travels to the archaeological site of Teotihuacan, known as the City of the Gods. There will be a brief 15-minute stop for an overview of the site followed by an hour at the Temple of the Feathered Serpent, noted for its sculptures symbolizing Mesoamerican spirituality. The tour continues with a 15-minute visit to structures that show how the city evolved over generations. Guests then spend an hour at the Pyramid of the Sun, the largest pyramid on site, featuring panoramic views. Next is a 30-minute stop at the Pyramid of the Moon, located at the end of the Avenue of the Dead, with views of the valley. Near this pyramid, the group will have a 10-minute visit to the Temple of Quetzalpapálotl, a ceremonial complex decorated with carved stone columns and murals, once reserved for priests or rulers. After exploring Teotihuacan for about five to six hours in total, the group returns to Mexico City by private transport. The final stop is at the Hilton Hotel by Alameda Central, the city's oldest public park. Here, the guide will provide recommendations for dining, museums, shopping, and other activities to continue the day. The tour includes private transportation, a local guide, all taxes and fees, and entrance tickets to the archaeological site. Food, hotel pickup and drop-off, and gratuities are not included.
