Price

Mexico, the capital, bursts with charming city quarters, avenues and boulevard with lots of green, wide boardwalks to stroll and enjoy a relaxed walk.
Here in Mexico City all Mexico comes together.
National Migration has brought not only people, but also traditions and costumes from all regions of Mexico to the capital.

Day 1: Mexico City

Welcome in airport MEX by your local, English-speaking guide. Transfer to a centrally located hotel for check-in (earliest possible check-in hour at 15:00h local MEX time). Be introduced by your guide with a short orientation walk around your hotel, for then to have the resting time of day free at leisure.

Day 2: Historical Center, Markets & Templo Mayor (B)

Breakfast in hotel. Your guide will pick you up in hotel to start the sightseeing of Mexico City in its historical center (UNESCO World Heritage ) walking. Get along Zócalo main square, have panoramic views on National Palace, Latinoamericana skyscraper, Tolsá Square and Main Post Office. Have a view into Fine Arts Palace, to see and learn about the famous Mural Painting Mexican art. Pass along Alameda Central Park to enter San Juan quarter and reach the market hall there, which is famous for its great and so original range of all kinds of fresh food, fruit and vegetables. See what is typical for Mexico, taste from what is all day food for the locals. Where has all this tradition its origin? In ancient Tenochtitlán, capital of prehispanic Aztec Empire in Mesoamerica. See so called 3-Cultures- Square, where the prehispanic ruins remain next to the colonial St.-Jacob-church and surrounded by the rather modern high rise living area of Nonoalco-Tlatelolco. Tlatelolco, in prehispanic times, was the quarter of market commerce, where all people came together, outside the theocratic center of Tenochtitlán, to offer all kinds of goods for all-day life, vegetables, fruits, animals, pottery…..and next to Zócalo main square visit then also the ruins and museum of Templo Mayor, where the Aztec temple ruins were discovered in the late 1960’s during the excavation works for Mexico City’s metro line system (Templo Mayor open TUE-SUN, closed Mondays – in case of closure day, the visits can be completed with a view and panoramic walk in elegant city quarters of Roma Norte and Condesa, to learn about how this great capital has grown over the recent centuries and decades). Optional / not included in package price: we recommend having an evening dinner reservation in some distinguished and/or most popular restaurant in Mexico, enjoy this dinner out with having the evening round transfer hotel-restaurant-hotel with your English-speaking driver-guide.

Day 3: Xochimilco Cooking & Floating Gardens – Coyoacán & Frida Kahlo (B, L)

Breakfast in hotel. Morning drive into southern parts of Mexico City to reach Xochimilco town, which is part of the capital. Meet the local family, with which you will go to market hall to buy ingredients, for then to get to their private home and kitchen for your cooking class on typical Mexican recipes and finally have a wonderful ride on your private Trajinera boat along the ancient canals of Floating Gardens of Xochimilco (UWH) with its agricultural Chinampa islands. Enjoy a tasty lunch on board, before then in afternoon to get into Coyoacán colonial quarter, where you will visit also the Blue House, which is the Museum Frida Kahlo, which houses a charming exhibition about the famous artist’s life, her art and connected oeuvre to her and her husband Diego Rivera. Visit the main building and exhibition on your own, before your guide will receive you again on your exit from the museum. Evening return to hotel for resting free time.

Day 4: Teotihuacán, Acolman & Basilica De Guadalupe (B)

Optional / not included in package price: we recommend to consider a very early drive out to Teotihuacán for a hot balloon ride over the valley of Teotihuacán – with good luck in climate, this ride will also allow to have a great view on the prehispanic temple site! Breakfast in hotel. (in case of taking the earlier balloon ride – see above – have a seated breakfast not in hotel in Mexico City, but in Teotihuacán in a local restaurant there in adjacent location ot Teotihuacán arch. site) Morning drive out of Mexico City in the northern direction. Almost endlessly, the city stretches more and more…. finally get into more rural sceneries and arrive in Teotihuacán, where you will have a visit walk in the archaeological site (UWH), which remains from a prehispanic culture even earlier to the Aztecs. When the Aztecs arrived in the central valleys of Mexico to settle here, Teotihuacán already was abandoned. Nevertheless, the pyramidal ruins where so impressive that the Aztecs gave the name of Teotihuacán to the place, which means something like “City of Gods” or “Place created by Gods” in indigenous Nahuatl language. During the visit, see so emblematic ruin parts like so called Citadel, Quetzalcóatl Temple, Road of the Dead, Pyramids of Sun and Moon and Quetzalpapálotl Palace, among others. On route back to Mexico City, start to learn about how the Spanish conquerors slowly introduced Christianism in their colony. In Acolman town, visit the exconvent (closed on Mondays), whose architecture is somewhere in between a fortress, church and convent. Visit then also the Sanctuary of Virgin of Guadalupe, where it is supposed, that on Tepeyac hill Virgin Mary appeared to young shepherd boy Juan Diego in the early 16th century. Evening return to your hotel.

Day 5: Departure (B)

Breakfast in a hotel. Latest check-out from hotel at noon. Optional / not included in package price: From Mexico City you can easily realize practically all kinds of imaginable journey through Mexico, get to nearby Pacific Coast via Taxco Silver town and enjoy beach nights in Acapulco or Ixtapa-Zihuatanejo, or start a journey towards southeast Mexico, visiting states of Oaxaca, Chiapas, Campeche and/or Yucatán to end up in Mexico’s Caribbean Coast. Also, the colonial region of Mexico is just north of all of this program. An ending of your stay in Mexico in some beach destination can be by immediate land connection from your last circuit destination or also with some domestic flight from most inland airports in Mexico.

REVIEW №3- Shamali De Vaz

Dear Anna, Alexandra, Iona and the rest of the team at Ada Tours
Feed-back from a happy, satisfied customer!
A very big thank you for your very efficient services, Hospitality and most importantly your patience throughout the tour of my client. Dr. Chrysantha Mendis is very happy with the entire Tour. You did a fantastic job by organizing a detailed tour package covering 7 countries, Venezuela, Ecuador, Bolivia, Chile, Peru, Argentina, and Brazil. Dr. Mendis has enjoyed all the countries though he could not do a few tours in Peru which is understandable due to political unrest. We will recommend Ada Tours to all our clients in Sri Lanka and will start promoting your tours in our website.
Best wishes and kind regards,
Shamali
REVIEW №4- Carol
Hi Anna, thank you for the update on the glasses. I’ll wait and see what happens! Alan and I are now back in the UK. We loved our trip to the Pantanal and Bonito. Our guide, Alessandra was brilliant with lots of knowledge and very considerate and helpful. The only hitch we had was on our flight back to Rio because the second leg of the trip was cancelled and we were rescheduled to a later plane and our luggage was mislaid. Fortunately it arrived in Rio a day later, before we flew home. Thank you for arranging the trip.
Best wishes Carol
REVIEW №5- Stacey Robertson
Hello Anna and Natalia,
Thank you for all your help with our trip! I know our group was difficult, and I appreciate your patience with us. We loved the tours, the horseback ride, and the absolutely beautiful lunch at the vineyard. Our guides and drivers were fantastic, especially Luis. And the hotels were perfectly located. It was such a convenience to be centrally located in both Lisbon and Madeira.
I hope you enjoy a wonderful holiday and I look forward to working with you in the new year!

REVIEW №9- Matt, Adventurebug Worldwide Ltd.
Everything went really well. As always we had to make some adjustments and the local guide and team on the ground were very responsive and took action professionally. I have no complaints about this :)
The clients were very pleased with the tour and all arrangements.
Changing the few meals at the end on Isabela was not an issue and the local team did a good job organizing this for me.

Many thanks again Ana!
