A longer tour is possible please ask for a customized tour link to do that. Please DO NOT WEAR SANDALS, FLIP-FLOPS or similar there are small rocks and red ants all over the place.

Private guided tour to the "city of the gods".

Located it deep into the protected area "Desierto de los Leones", we'll start our tour at the Ex-Monastery of Desierto de los Leones, a UNESCO World Heritage. A place obscure to outsiders, yet important to our heritage. This 17th-century monastery was founded by the Carmelites of the Barefooted, a religious order that was known for their strict asceticism. Its architecture initially reflected the principles of the Carmelite monks: austerity, harmony, and utility

After our visit to the monastery, we'll head to Chapultepec Castle, one of Mexico's most iconic landmarks. This castle was originally built as a military stronghold, but it later became the residence of the Mexican presidents. The castle was built in 1785 as a summer retreat for the Spanish Viceroy and was later used as a military academy. It was also the site of the famous battle of Chapultepec during the Mexican-American War in 1847.

Teotihuacan Pyramids Day Trip from Mexico City

Teotihuacan has always been considered a milestone in Mexican culture and history. This millenary city is well known because of its energy, mysticism and its secrets. Its iconic architecture has made this place one of the most famous archaeological zones all around the world. Major events have been happening here for ages, this is a place where culture and people from everywhere get together!

For me, I could call this place the Mexican Athens, its development as a major civilization give lots of improvements to our country and humanity, as an architect I could say that every time I came here, I felt connected with my own prehispanic roots, I feel like I've been here for ages, through my ancestors and my traditions. I can say that everyone who comes here wherever they come can feel that connection because since its own name Teotihuacan means, THE PLACE WHERE HUMANS BECOME GODS, so more than a race or a nationality, but humanity is the major link for us.

IMPORTANT please contact me before booking! A discovery journey inside the city where humans become gods.

Houses that inspired Frida Kahlo and her lovestory full day Tour

Frida is and will be one of the most iconic characters of the Mexican History and a symbol of women empowerment. She was born and raised in Mexico City at the beginning of the 20th Century in Casa Azul where Frida spent her childhood. She got married to Diego Rivera even though they had a big age difference, they shared their passion for art. They lived in the Casa Azul together but after affairs, lies, and several reconciliations they decided to share 2 houses that were connected by a bridge in the beautiful neighborhood of San Angel.

After Frida died, Diego mentioned that a part of him died with her to and he was putting all his efforts into building a place where he could share the love they had for art. That is when he began building the Anahuacalli that unfortunately, he could not see finished. These three museums host Frida and Diego's personal belongings that guide us thru their love story and their inspiration to create all their pieces of work that we can nowadays appreciate.
