Tour description

There are many tours to Teotihuacán, but this tour offers something different: not only discover this ancient civilization that built a city in the first centuries AD almost as big as Rome, but also explore local cuisine and history of the region. Transportation, guide services and entrance fees included.

We will stay for some hours at the archeological site to discover not only the two main piramids, but also unveil some of the city's mysteries through mural paintings, ceramic findings and the urban planning. We'll have a lunch nearby, to discover the Aztec roots of the traditional dishes and drinks.

Afterwards, we have the afternoon to visit an ancient pulque hacienda (fermentated agave juice, a sacred beverage of the Aztecs). This region was the main producer of this very common and popular drink (until a few decades ago). We complete our discovery into regional history by visiting an impressive colonial aqueduct to bring water to a monastery, and explore spiritual life of the early christianizing Augustine frairs in a monastery.
