22 days in Mexico City Itinerary

Breathtakingly large, Mexico City provides a home for almost 9 million people living in nearly 1,700 distinct neighborhoods.

Explore the numerous day-trip ideas around Mexico City: Playa La Virgen (in Tequesquitengo), Cuautla (Museo Vivencia Ferrocarril 279 el telefono no sirve y faltan horarios & Ex Hacienda de Coahuixtla) and Xochicalco (in Miacatlan). Spend the 23rd (Sat) floating through the air with a balloon tour. Plan for a day of cool, family-friendly fun on the 29th (Fri) at Balneario Santa Isabel. There's still lots to do: take an in-depth tour of Museo Nacional de Antropologia, don't miss a visit to Zona Arqueológica de Teotihuacan Estacionamiento Puerta 5, appreciate the extensive heritage of Zocalo, and explore the ancient world of Museo del Templo Mayor.

In January, plan for daily highs up to 24°C, and evening lows to 7°C. Finish your sightseeing early on the 10th (Wed) to allow enough time to travel back home.
