Description

In front of the National Museum of Anthropology, under the flagpole, you will meet the archaeology specialist who will guide you through the museum, with admission included. But first, you'll have some time to get ready, using the museum's free services such as the coat check, restrooms, and ATMs. The afternoon sightseeing tour starts at 3:00 pm, giving you 3 hours before the museum closes. (In the morning, it's at 9:30 am) In the lobby or crescent, 10 minutes later the sightseeing tour will begin through the landmark that Mexico erected to honor its ancient cultures and its origins. Teotihuacans, Toltecs, Mexicas, Olmecs, Mayans... In just over two hours, what could take two days: millennia, cultures, languages; the museum, with its archaeology galleries, offers a broad, original overview of the origins of the Mexico that exists today.
