Itinerary
This is a private experience. We'll meet at gate number one, and once inside, we'll start with an introduction to the site to provide a general overview. Then, we'll explore the "Calzada de los Muertos," the main ancient access to the city. Next, we'll enter "La Ciudadela" to visit the pyramid known as the "Templo de la Serpiente Emplumada" (Temple of the Feathered Serpent). After exploring the pyramid, we'll move to the residential areas to observe everyday life, the architectural system, and mural paintings. Finally, we'll visit the area with the pyramids of the Sun and Moon. Throughout the tour, we'll discuss modern theories about the city, archaeological findings from the site, meanings behind offerings, and more. We'll also explore the relationship between the environment and the ruins. During the tour, I'll show you some artifacts from the past, and we'll use virtual reality to visualize changes over time. This will be an immersive experience into the archaeological world.

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).
