About this experience

2-Day Mexico City Tour: Teotihuacán, Basilica, Frida Kahlo Museum, Xochimilco & Coyoacán This comprehensive Mexico City tour spans two full days and covers the capital's most significant cultural and historical sites. You'll explore ancient pyramids at Teotihuacán, visit the spiritual heart of Mexico at the Basilica de Guadalupe, discover Frida Kahlo's artistic legacy in Coyoacán, and cruise the colourful canals of Xochimilco aboard traditional boats. Day one takes you to Teotihuacán, where you'll walk the Avenue of the Dead and climb the Pyramid of the Sun and Pyramid of the Moon. Your guide explains the significance of the Temple of the Feathered Serpent and the ancient Mesoamerican civilisation that built this remarkable city. The day continues at Tlatelolco, showcasing Mexico's layered history, before concluding at the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe, the country's most important Catholic pilgrimage site. Day two explores Mexico City's artistic soul in the cobblestone streets of Coyoacán. The highlight is Casa Azul, Frida Kahlo's former home turned museum, where you'll see her personal belongings and artwork. You'll also visit UNAM's campus to admire Diego Rivera's murals at this UNESCO World Heritage site, then enjoy a relaxing trajinera boat ride through Xochimilco's floating gardens while mariachi music plays in the background. What is Included Professional guide for both days Transportation between all locations Entry tickets to Teotihuacán archaeological site Entry to Frida Kahlo Museum (Casa Azul) Entry to Basilica de Guadalupe Trajinera boat ride at Xochimilco Visit to UNAM campus Priority entry to museums and sites Good to Know This two-day Mexico City guided tour requires moderate fitness levels due to walking on uneven surfaces and climbing pyramid steps at Teotihuacán. The experience is not wheelchair accessible because of stairs, uneven ground, and boat access at Xochimilco. Bring a valid photo ID, comfortable walking shoes, hat, sunscreen, and cash for personal purchases. Food and drinks are not included, but you'll have opportunities to buy snacks at various stops. Large bags and suitcases cannot be brought into museums or archaeological sites, so pack light. If the Frida Kahlo Museum is closed (typically Mondays), the itinerary will be adjusted for your group. Tripods and selfie sticks are not permitted at archaeological sites or museums. Meet at the designated central meeting point on time each day, and you'll return to the same location after each day's activities. For those interested in exploring more of Mexico City's artistic heritage, consider booking a Diego Rivera mural tour to see additional works by this master painter. If you prefer focusing on ancient history, a dedicated Teotihuacán pyramids tour allows more time to explore this archaeological wonder in depth.
