Start place: Gulf of Mexico
Bienvenidos! Welcome to Mexico City, a buzzing capital replete with musuems, awesome eateries and elegant architecture. Your adventure begins with a welcome meeting at 6 pm where you'll meet your tour leader and travel group. There are no other activities planned for this first day, so make sure to get out and explore if you arrive early. Perhaps start at Zocalo, the city's huge central square, where Aztec ruins and colonial architecture are within easy reach. The town has some beautiful parks and gardens worth visiting. Alternatively, the city, though often crowded and smoggy, offers a great variety of museums, galleries and architecture, along with exciting nightlife and delicious street food.
Keep in mind that this itinerary is designed to provide the best possible experience of Day of the Dead festivities. As such, there is very limited free time to explore many of the city’s most popular tourist attractions, including the Museum of Anthropology, Teotihuacan and Chapultepec Park. We recommend you stay a few extra days before or after the tour to make the most of this vibrant metropolis. If you need help booking extra accommodation, our reservations team will be happy to assist (subject to availability).
