Mexico: Teotihuacan, Acolman Monastery & Piñatas Tour
During this private 9h tour from Mexico City, you will get to know UNESCO-listed Teotihuacan Archeological Zone, visit ancient Alcolman Monastery & create your own piñata in the place where this tradition comes from...
Itinerary
In the morning, meet your guide and go to Teotihuacan. For about 3 hours you will leisurely explore the archaeological zone climbing impressive Pyramids of the Sun and the Moon, walking down a famous Avenue of the Dead, visiting a beautiful Temple of Quetzalpapalotl and other sights of this ancient city.
After the tour, have a buffet lunch trying some of the most typical Mexican specialties and move to nearby Acolman. This little town is famous for its magnificent XVI-century Augustinian convent with impressive murals - one of the oldest in Latin America. Also, it is a birthplace of piñatas - a tradition that later spread throughout the Americas. In Acolman, we will visit a convent which is currently a museum, and attend a workshop where you will create your own piñata. After a full day of experiences & adventures, return to our vehicle & relax on the way back to Mexico City. End of our "Mexico: Teotihuacan, Acolman Monastery & Piñata Tour".
