What you can expect

Take a day trip to Puebla, Cholula, and Tonantzintla—some of the most beautiful and important historic sites outside Mexico City. You have a chance to explore the Great Pyramid of Cholula, visit the church of Santa María de Tonantzintla to see a blend of indigenous and Christian influences in one magnificent edifice, and then marvel at the gloriously gilded interior of Rosary Chapel of Santo Domingo in Puebla.

After getting picked up at a convenient meeting point, your driver takes you from Mexico City across the highway to the east, where you can admire the looming mountains that stand guard over the city. Enjoy breathtaking views and beautiful scenery of Popocatepetl and Iztaccihuatl volcanoes as you venture to the Great Pyramid of Cholula, the largest pyramid (by volume) in the world.

Then, head to Santa María de Tonantzintla. This unique church combines 2 coexisting religious interpretations—the indigenous and the Christian—and is considered the most representative church of indigenous baroque art.

Finally, visit the opulent and awe-inspiring Rosary Chapel and historic centre of Puebla on a guided walking tour that will take you to the most important and representative places in this “City of Angels.” Before returning to Mexico City, you'll be able to taste local food, visit Parian Market, and have free time to explore on your own.
