Teotihuacan and Xochimilco Day Tour
Visit one of Mexico’s most significant archaeological sites, the ancient city of Teotihuacan. Here you will see the monumental structures that continue to define its landscape, including the Temple of the Sun, the Temple of the Moon, the Citadel, and the Temple of Quetzalcoatl. These impressive constructions offer insight into the scale and organization of this once-thriving civilization. After your visit to Teotihuacan, continue to the southern part of Mexico City to experience Xochimilco, an area known for its canals and floating gardens. This UNESCO World Heritage site preserves the traditional system of chinampas, or man-made islands, that supported agriculture for centuries. Surrounded by greenery, the canals remain a living example of pre-Hispanic ingenuity and adaptation. As part of your visit, enjoy a ride on a trajinera, a traditional brightly painted wooden boat that glides through the waterways. This relaxed journey offers the chance to appreciate the landscape from a unique perspective while learning about the cultural importance of the area. Together, Teotihuacan and Xochimilco highlight two distinct aspects of Mexico’s past and present, connecting monumental archaeological heritage with traditions that continue to shape daily life in the capital today. At the end of the tour, your driver will take you back to your hotel.
