5 days in Mexico City Itinerary

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

Step out of Mexico City with an excursion to Zona Arqueológica de Teotihuacan Estacionamiento Puerta 5 in San Juan Teotihuacan--about 1h 15 min away. There's lots more to do: take an in-depth tour of Museo Nacional de Antropologia, make a trip to Zocalo, step into the grandiose world of Chapultepec Castle, and take in the architecture and atmosphere at Basilica de Santa Maria de Guadalupe.
