Overview
Discover two iconic sides of Mexico City in just 5 hours. Travel along Avenida de los Insurgentes to the campus of UNAM, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where striking murals and sculptures by Diego Rivera, David Alfaro Siqueiros and Juan O’Gorman tell the story of modern Mexico. See the 1968 Olympic Stadium and learn how this university became a symbol of culture and change. Then continue to colorful Xochimilco, one of the last remnants of the Aztec canal system. Board a traditional trajinera boat for a relaxed ride through the floating gardens, as mariachis, food boats and flower vendors pass by. With roundtrip transport from selected central hotels and a bilingual certified guide, this tour is an easy, hassle-free way to experience art, history and living tradition in southern Mexico City.
