What to expect

Join a tour of the historic centre of México City, the most extensive UNESCO-listed colonial city in America, which was called the City of Palaces in the 19th century. You will discover attractions such as Zócalo (main square), the Diego Rivera murals, and Xochimilco.

Zócalo is the world's 3rd largest square, surrounded by Mexico's most important political power buildings such as the National Palace, the City Hall, the Justice Palace, and the Cathedral. The Metropolitan Cathedral is the seat of the First Archdiocese of Mexico and is situated on the north side of the Plaza de la Constitución. You'll take a walking tour of Madero pedestrian street, along with colonial and art deco palaces.

Continue to Xochimilco, a town-like neighbourhood located in the southern part of the city. Explore Xochimilco's renowned canals, the last remnants of an enormous transport system that the Aztecs built. Enjoy a 1-hour ride on a trajinera, a colourful boat similar to a gondola. Next, you will visit the UNAM's Campus (the National University of Mexico) to admire the famous murals by Diego Rivera, O'Gorman, and Siqueiros. Complete your journey with a panoramic view of the stadium.
