Visit the Church of Santiago, built in 1522 on Aztec ruins, and learn about the Aztecs' last stand against Hernán Cortés.

Next, visit the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe, the country's most important sanctuary, where you'll admire both the old and new basilicas and learn the story of the Virgin of Guadalupe and her apparition to Saint Juan Diego.

On the way to Teotihuacán, stop at an obsidian workshop and enjoy an optional tequila tasting and a traditional Mexican lunch (not included).

Activity itinerary

Tlatelolco (Pass by)
The journey begins with an introduction to the ancient cultures that inhabited these lands before the arrival of Europeans, offering an in-depth look at their traditions, architecture, and worldview. Visitors will then stop in front of the Church of Santiago, a powerful symbol of cultural and historical fusion. Built in 1522 on the ruins of an ancient Aztec temple, this church represents the beginning of the colonial period. Here, travelers will learn the dramatic history of the conquest, including the Aztec Empire's last stand against the forces of Hernán Cortés. Finally, the tour connects with the emergence of independent, mestizo Mexico, explaining how national identity was forged from this complex fusion of cultures. This experience not only showcases historical monuments, but also provides an understanding of how the past has shaped modern Mexico.

Finally, you will admire the Temple of the Feathered Serpent (Quetzalcoatl), which stands out for its detailed sculptures of deities and mythological serpents. This experience offers not only a historical and cultural journey, but also a profound connection with the spiritual and artistic legacy of one of the most enigmatic civilizations of antiquity.
