We'll take a walking tour of downtown Mexico City, uncovering the fascinating history of one of the oldest cities in the Americas. We'll visit Bellas Artes to admire murals by Mexico's most renowned painters and explore other iconic landmarks like the Zócalo, and the Frida Kahlo Museum in the charming Coyoacan.
At Teotihuacán, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, we'll explore the ancient pyramids with expert guides and learn about pulque, a pre-Hispanic drink, as well as the famous barbacoa. This traditional dish involves slow-cooking lamb underground in agave leaves for 16 hours until it is perfectly tender, served with fresh tortillas and its flavorful consomé.
A magical highlight of our trip is the boat ride on a trajinera through the canals of Xochimilco, another UNESCO World Heritage site. We'll learn about sustainable agricultural techniques on the ancient chinampas (floating gardens) and enjoy a special breakfast featuring fresh, organic ingredients harvested straight from the gardens.
