What to expect

Visit Teotihuacan, the “City of the Gods,” on an early morning half-day tour as the sun rises over the ancient pyramids—well before the crowds arrive from Mexico City. Experience the peace and magic of this archaeological wonder while it’s nearly empty, allowing for a deeper, more authentic connection with its history and atmosphere.

Explore temples, plazas, and murals as your expert cultural interpreter shares fascinating stories, local legends, and the latest archaeological insights. With their in-depth knowledge, your guide will lead you to lesser-visited areas, including the Temple of Quetzalcoatl, the Avenue of the Dead, and the Palace of Quetzalpapalotl. This experience at Teotihuacan will be even richer thanks to the stories, anecdotes, history, and information on the latest discoveries that the “cultural interpreter” will share with you during the tour. With their local knowledge and experience, the heritage guide will take you to places that other tours do not usually visit.

Afterward, visit a traditional obsidian workshop to learn about this ancestral craft, enjoy a tequila tasting, and browse beautifully handcrafted items. End your adventure with the option to savour a delicious lunch at a local restaurant (included only if you select the option), indulging in authentic Mexican cuisine as you reflect on an unforgettable journey into the heart of ancient Mexico.

    Traveled as a couple


    No me gustó que te obligan a ir a un restaurante que es un auténtico “tourist trap”. Eso no figuraba en el programa.
