What you can expect

Visit 2 important Mesoamerican archaeological sites on this private full-day tour. With an expert guide, explore the well-preserved pre-Columbian city of Teotihuacán, and then discover the former capital of the Toltec Empire with a stop at Tula.

Your tour begins with a drive from Mexico City to ancient Teotihuacán, also known as the “City of the Gods.” The UNESCO World Heritage Site features a number of architecturally significant Mesoamerican pyramids, as well as important residential compounds and well-preserved murals that reveal the culture of the first millennium AD. Take a walk on the Avenue of the Dead, which connects the Pyramid of the Sun and the Pyramid of the Moon to other buildings in the complex. As you explore, your guide explains the significance of each site and ruin.

Later, travel to Tula, the ancient capital of the Toltec Empire. Climb the 5-tiered Pyramid of Quetzalcoatl, also known as the “Pyramid of the Morning Star,” to see the massive Atlantes columns at its top. Each of the columns is carved into the likeness of a Toltec warrior and reaches 13 feet (4 m) in height. Your guide shows you around other sites, including the Burnt Palace, an ancient ballcourt, and the ceremonial centre, which features eye-opening images of war and sacrifice. After taking in the history of the site, return to Mexico City in the evening.
