Teotihuacan Temples & Xochimilco Gondola Ride
Visit one of Mexico’s most well-known archaeological sites, the Pyramids of Teotihuacan. Walk through this ancient city and see its main structures, including the Pyramid of the Sun, Pyramid of the Moon, the Citadel, and the Temple of Quetzalcoatl. These monuments reflect the scale and design of a once thriving pre Hispanic city. Afterward, travel to the southern part of Mexico City to visit Xochimilco, an area recognized for its canal system and traditional farming method. In this area, you will see chinampas, which are artificial plots used for growing crops, along with a variety of plants along the waterways. The visit includes a ride on a trajinera, a wooden boat painted in bright colors and often decorated with names or floral patterns. As you move along the canals, you will get a clear view of the landscape and daily activity in this part of the city. A traditional lunch will be served on board during the ride. This itinerary offers a balanced look at the archaeological and cultural aspects of the region, with time spent in two distinct locations that each reflect a different part of Mexico’s past and present.
