Description

The adventure begins in Coyoacán, a neighborhood brimming with history and character.

Next, step into the world of Frida Kahlo at the legendary Blue House. More than just a museum, this is a window into the life and art of one of Mexico’s most iconic figures. The rooms, adorned with personal belongings and original paintings, reveal the deep connection between Frida, her art, and the home where she spent much of her life. Each corner tells a story, offering a glimpse into her creative genius. Moving on to Ciudad Universitaria, the campus of the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM), a masterpiece of architecture and artistic expression awaits. Its stunning murals, including the spectacular mosaic façade of the Central Library, depict the country’s history in vivid detail. Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, this stop is a tribute to the power of art as a storyteller of national identity. Finally, the day culminates in Xochimilco, a place of unparalleled charm and tradition. Enjoy a traditional Mexican lunch at a local restaurant, only included for those who purchase the option, and then glide through ancient canals on a trajinera, a colorful wooden boat that has been part of the landscape since pre-Hispanic times. Enjoy the festive atmosphere, learn about the area’s fascinating history. A day filled with history, art, and unforgettable landscapes, this tour offers a unique glimpse into the cultural heartbeat of Mexico City.
