- Iztapalapa - Interested in exploring a side of Mexico City that most visitors miss?
Experience an off-the-beaten-path adventure in Iztapalapa, offering a genuine glimpse into everyday life in CDMX. This journey is filled with street food, local culture, and deep historical roots dating back to the Aztecs. Away from the typical tourist spots, this district is one of the city’s most vibrant areas, where street art, community initiatives, and new public spaces are actively redefining its character.
In summary: authentic Mexico City, both from above and up close—and yes, it will surpass another “same-old” Centro photo.
- Alameda Central - The adventure begins in Downtown Mexico City, right outside the Palacio de Bellas Artes. From there, participants will hop on the Metro and head toward the suburbs—using the same transport locals depend on—while learning about how mobility functions in one of the world’s largest cities (and why it influences daily life here).
- El Metro - Throughout the tour, participants will travel across Mexico City—and into Iztapalapa—using the Mexico City Metro, the backbone of daily life here. Along the way, they will gain a true sense of local routines and discover why the Metro is more than just transportation—it’s the system that keeps this megacity operational.
- Museum of Cultures By Iztapalapa Passion - Next, a visit to a local museum will provide insight into Iztapalapa’s history and its most iconic cultural tradition—an epic, community-led Holy Week performance known as one of the largest of its kind in the world.
- Constitución de 1917 – Línea 2 del Cablebús - Following that, the main event: a ride on the Mexico City Cable Car, gliding above the streets for panoramic valley views—with a front-row seat to the area’s vibrant street art and the vastness of CDMX from the sky.
- Mercado Desarrollo Urbano Quetzalcoatl - A market stop will offer the chance to try a classic taco spot beloved by locals—simple, authentic, and delicious.
- Pulqueria La Hermosa Hortensia - Finally, the journey concludes with a return by metro, ending at a local bar Downtown, to celebrate with a pre-Hispanic drink: the beverage of the gods.
