Description
Enjoy a vibrant journey through Mexico City’s cultural heart. Departing from Mexico City, head south to Coyoacan, stopping at a local cooperative shop that helps Mexican local artisans. The adventure begins in Coyoacan, a neighborhood bursting with colonial charm, cobblestone streets, and a rich artistic legacy. Lush plazas and colorful facades set the stage for a deep dive into the stories of Mexico’s most iconic figures.
For those who select the museum option, the next highlight is the Frida Kahlo Museum (La Casa Azul). Located in the artist’s former home, this cobalt-blue house offers an intimate look into her life, featuring original artwork, personal belongings, and a stunning collection of Mexican folk art. And thanks to your digital guide, learn as you wander around the rooms of her house.
The tour continues to Ciudad Universitaria, home to the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM). A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the campus showcases monumental murals by Mexico’s greatest artists, the iconic Central Library, and the Olympic Stadium shaped like a volcano.
Next, the experience heads to the colorful borough of Xochimilco, where tradition floats on ancient canals. Before the boat ride, a stop is made at a local restaurant for a delicious lunch—included only for those who selected the lunch option. The day ends with a festive ride aboard a traditional trajinera, gliding through the canals of Xochimilco. Surrounded by music, floating vendors, and vibrant scenery, this final stop captures the spirit of Mexico’s living heritage.
