5 Best Places to Add to Mexico City Private Tour Package

Are you thinking of a vacation in Mexico City? Probably you think of exploring spectacular beachfront towns and resorts, the glittering blue waters and the golden sands of Cabo San Lucas, Tulum and the list goes on. You won’t think about bustling metropolises. 

Mexico City is a tourist destination most vacationers visit there to escape from hustle and bustle of their personal lifestyles. You will avoid seeking out somewhere mimicking it. If you’re still searching for an upcoming getaway, it’s high time to give a chance to Mexico City. 

Take the Mexico City private tour to enjoy the high-octane capital pulsating with beautiful colors and vibrancy. The megalopolis of Mexico City is well-known as the oldest urban center in the Western Hemisphere. Read on the best places to visit during your Mexico City private tour. 

  1. Xochimilco 

Xochimilco is a famous UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the last remnants of Lake Texcoco. Typically, vacationers hire a trajinera – a flat bottom boat propelled by a boatman with a pole. Trajineras allow you to reminisce about Venice through few-hour excursions here in Xochimilco. 

The price of trajinera rental is based on different routes marked on the map at the Embarcadero adjacent to the parking space where these boats load and unload passengers. It’s better to visit with a group; at least someone in your group speaks Spanish. It will help you in arranging a trajinera as well as buying food and drinks from local vendors along the way. If you want to escape the hustle and bustle of Mexico City life, visit Xochimilco on a weekday when it can be nearly empty. 

  1. Museo Frida Kahlo

Museo Frida Kahlo is located in Coyoacan, a leafy suburb in Mexico City. This building is also known as La Casa Azul – “The Blue House”. It was once the home of Frida Kahlo. You can walk through her home and see the rooms furnished initially and decorated throughout her lifetime. 

The museum exhibits a spectacular collection of her beautiful works. So, you need to buy tickets online. The museum is top-rated. If you show up without tickets, you will likely end up standing in a long queue outside the sidewalk. Even if you have to wait more than an hour to get tickets. 

  1. Mexico City Markets 

Mexico City is famous for its colorful, diverse arrays of local markets selling everything from dried chilies to a wide variety of prepared foods, home goods, and much more. It’s better to visit the markets during your Mexico City private tour. 


  1. National History Museum Chapultepec Castle

National History Museum Chapultepec Castle is based on Chapultepec hill in Chapultepec Park. This impressive castle offers fantastic, panoramic views of Mexico City. Formerly, it was a sacred site for the Aztecs.

Currently, it’s the National History Museum with exhibits showcasing Mexico's incredible, tragic history over the last five hundred years, from the time of the Aztecs through the 20th century. The original artifacts, furniture, paintings and documents bring the age-old history of Mexico to life in a vivid way. 

  1. Palacio de las Bellas Artes

Palacio de las Bellas Artes is located in the Centro Historico. This Cathedral of Art in Mexico is housed in a stunning art deco or art nouveau building boasting striking marble interiors. It is most famous for the murals by Diego Rivera and Siqueiros. The Cathedral of Art hosts several temporary art and literature exhibitions and dance, theater and opera performances to support vibrant Mexican culture and art.
