  • Pyramid of the Moon: Marvel at the pyramid's scale and hear your guide explain its ritual significance within the broader city plan.

  • Avenue of the Dead: Walk the grand 2.5-mile (4 km) boulevard that once connected Teotihuacán's most sacred structures.

  • Palace of Quetzalpapalotl: Step inside to admire vibrant murals and the distinctive butterfly and bird motifs carved into its columns.

  • Temple of the Feathered Serpent: Discover intricate stone carvings of Quetzalcoatl and other mythological figures at one of the city's most ornate structures. Your guide will bring centuries of history to life throughout, drawing on the latest archaeological findings alongside ancient legend.

  • Local distillate tasting: Following your visit to Teotihuacán, take part in a local tasting experience and shop for handcrafted souvenirs.
