Itinerary
Expedition guided by specialists in history, archaeology and nature; where we will explore the area of volcanoes, considered as natural wonder of the nation, and the best, you will take a professional photographer with you who will be in charge of getting the best shots of the attendees in the location, even with a drone! The Cortes Pass is located between the Popocatépetl Volcano and the Iztaccíhuatl Volcano. Attendees will depart at 05:15 AM from the south of the city (pick up/drop off hotel optional), to explore the most formidable hiking trails of the Iztaccihuatl volcano and enjoy the scenery with the sunrise (the start time is recommended but is flexible in case there are no other attendees for the selected date). After the hike, if you wish, we can make a gastronomic stop at a family business with delicious Mexican food, the best combination of flavors of the region (not included).

About Mexico City
Mexico City is a vast, high-altitude capital built over the Aztec city of Tenochtitlan, rich in museums, murals, markets and outstanding food.
The Zócalo, one of the largest squares in the world, is framed by the Metropolitan Cathedral and the National Palace, where Diego Rivera's murals tell the story of Mexico. Beside them, the excavated Templo Mayor reveals the heart of the Aztec capital, and the Palacio de Bellas Artes, with its marble exterior and Art Deco interior, stands a short walk west.
Top-ranked sights in Mexico City: Teotihuacán, Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe, Frida Kahlo Museum (Museo Frida Kahlo).
