Description

Once you are picked up from your accommodation in Mexico City, you will begin the journey towards Cholula. Upon arrival, you will visit the impressive Tonanzintla church, considered a jewel of Mexican baroque dating back to the 16th century, reflecting the fusion of Christian and indigenous thought. The next stop will be at the Cholula pyramid, where you will climb to visit the Church of Our Lady of Remedies and enjoy a spectacular view of the valley. If the weather permits, you will have the opportunity to appreciate the majestic Popocatépetl and Iztaccíhuatl volcanoes. Afterwards, you will continue towards downtown Puebla, where you will have time to enjoy a traditional lunch at a local restaurant and stroll to admire the city's highlights, such as the Cathedral, the Rosario Chapel, the charming streets, French and colonial-style buildings, and of course, the traditional Talavera craftsmanship. At the end of the tour, you will be taken back to Mexico City and dropped off at your accommodation or the pre-agreed meeting point.
