803 Reviews
What remains of the Aztecs’ Great Temple (Templo Mayor) sits right in the middle of Mexico City, but many tourists miss it. In 1978, a massive, 8-ton (7,000-kilogram) stone depicting Coyolxauhqui (the Aztec goddess of the moon) was unearthed, marking the location of the temple, a gathering place sacred for the Aztecs during the 1300s and 1400s.

Explore the Real MxCity all-inclusive
⚠︎We're the new kids in town so check our unbeatable prices⚠︎
We'll show 4 different faces of the city, walking, eating and drinking as much as we can!
We start in Guerrero Neighborhood, a non-tourist area but a really traditional barrio, perfect to show you the real city that most visitors never see. After a traditional breakfast, we’ll visit the biggest local market where my mom buys the groceries for my enchiladas.
Then, we’ll take the metro (it's safe!) to visit the Revolution Monument and talk about the bloodiest Mexican civil war. Then we’ll walk through hidden gems (a cemetery and psychiatric hospital), just to take a break to drink pulque (Aztecs beverage).
The third part is a walk through Central Alameda + Fine Arts Palace and the iconic Latino Tower, talking about art, history, and love failures.
Last but not least: Downtown Highlights. Most iconic buildings + tacos + beer in a secret bar.
Can any other tour beat that offer? I would say not in this life.
