Full description
Explore Teotihuacan, an ancient sacred city of the Aztecs and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and visit Our Lady of Guadalupe on this group tour from Mexico City. ‘The sacred Aztec city of Teotihuacan, located 60 km from Mexico City, is one of the most impressive and revered cities of the ancient world and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
On your group tour, you will be able to: Travel back in time to the archaeological site of Tlatelolco; Experience life as an ancient Aztec in the impressive area of Tlatelolco, the last stronghold of the Aztecs and home to the largest and most important market in central Mexico in pre-Hispanic times; Explore the impressive Aztec pyramids: Temple of the Moon and Temple of the Sun, learn about their significance, marvel at their magnificence and admire the breathtaking panoramic views if you reach the top; Walk along the ‘Calzada de los Muertos’, the avenue linking the temples, and discover some fascinating stories along the way; Visit the Hidden Palaces and admire the wall paintings that hold the enigmatic secrets of this ancient civilisation; Transfer to the archaeological park of Teotihuacan and enjoy a walking tour before stopping for lunch in the village (lunch not included); Travel to Villa de Guadalupe where you will see the old temples and the new Basilica dedicated to the Virgin of Guadalupe; Stroll around the Villa and learn about ‘La Lupita’, Our Lady of Guadalupe, and her religious importance to Mexicans and pilgrims from all over the world; Enjoy a scenic drive back to Mexico City.
The vast ancient settlement called ‘Teotihuacan’ by the Aztecs - meaning ‘where the gods were created’ has captivated visitors for many years with its impressive stepped pyramids, spectacular temples, wall paintings, coded glyphs and platforms with panoramic views, all connected by the great ‘Avenue of the Dead’.
Just thirty miles from Mexico City, it is now a UNESCO World Heritage site. Founded as early as 400 BC, it became a major commercial centre of pre-Columbian Mexico with up to 25,000 inhabitants. A fire in the 7th century is believed to have largely destroyed it, and it remained abandoned until the Aztecs took over the ruined city in the 1400s.
Your guide will tell you what we know about the people who built, lived and worshipped here - and also what we don't yet know about this fascinating and truly powerful archaeological site: its language of glyphs and symbols. You will be able to judge for yourself as you explore the majestic temples of the Sun, the Moon and the Avenue of the Dead.
After Teotihuacan, enjoy a lunch break in town (lunch not included), followed by a visit to the iconic Villa Guadalupe.
The Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe is a national holy shrine in Mexico and houses an important relic: the tilma of St. Juan Diego on which the image of the Virgin Mary miraculously appeared. It is one of the most important shrines in Mexico and, indeed, for Catholics throughout the world. It is said that Mary appeared to Juan Diego in 1531 and asked him to build a church in her honour.
This happened on the hill of Tepeyac, where the Spaniards had recently destroyed a temple to the mother goddess Tonantzin, the Aztec goddess of love. The tilma with the image of Mary remains on the altar, puzzling scholars and historians for centuries. It is the most popular Catholic pilgrimage site and the third most visited sacred site in the world.
Enjoy the basilica, the miracle of the tilma, the impressive architecture and the beautiful surrounding grounds, followed by a scenic transfer back to Mexico City.
