The journey begins with a visit to iconic landmarks such as the Blue House, once home to Frida Kahlo, and the historic Coyoacán neighbourhood. As one of the earliest colonial settlements, Coyoacán boasts a history that reaches back to pre-Hispanic times.
The cultural exploration continues as you delve into Coyoacán's bustling arts scene. This district is renowned for its prestigious cultural institutions, including the National Arts Centre and the National School of Music. You'll also have the opportunity to admire the grand architecture of the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM), a UNESCO World Heritage site. Here, you can discover the works of legendary artists like Diego Rivera and Siqueiros. The pinnacle of the tour is undoubtedly the Frida Kahlo Museum, where you'll step into Frida's world through her art and personal effects.
Following your visit to Casa Azul, the tour transports you to Xochimilco, known as the "place of flowers". Here, you'll pause at a local restaurant for a traditional Mexican lunch - an option available for those who choose it. The day culminates with a ride on a trajinera, a colourful gondola-style boat that sails through Xochimilco’s ancient canals. Surrounded by floating gardens, lively music, and vivid scenery, this final activity encapsulates a joyful celebration of Mexico’s living heritage.
