Top 5 things to do

Centro Historico and Bellas Artes in Mexico City
01

Centro Historico and Bellas Artes

Walk through the Centro Historico for the Zocalo, cathedral, and tiled facades, then continue to Bellas Artes for its marble-and-gold setting. Together they give you a strong first look at central Mexico City.

National Museum of Anthropology in Mexico City
02

National Museum of Anthropology

Spend a few hours with monumental Mexica, Maya, and other pre-Hispanic collections at the National Museum of Anthropology. It adds real context to the archaeological sites and cultural landmarks you will see around Mexico.

Chapultepec Castle in Mexico City
03

Chapultepec Castle

Tour Chapultepec Castle for ornate rooms, history, and broad city views from its hilltop setting. It pairs naturally with time elsewhere in Chapultepec and gives you a different perspective on the capital.

Xochimilco in Mexico City
04

Xochimilco

Ride a colorful trajinera through Xochimilco's historic canal system and take in the activity on the water. It is a distinct Mexico City experience that feels completely different from the museums and central neighborhoods.

Teotihuacan in Mexico City
05

Teotihuacan

Make the day trip to Teotihuacan to walk the Avenue of the Dead and see the Pyramid of the Sun. The scale of the site makes it worth giving a full part of your week.
