Puebla and Cholula Day Trip Itinerary

After hotel pickup, we'll travel east from Mexico City, crossing the mountains via the motorway with views of the Iztaccíhuatl and Popocatépetl volcanoes.

The first stop will be Cholula, the oldest continuously inhabited city in America. We'll visit the archaeological area, dominated by the Cholula Great Pyramid (Tlachihualtépetl), the biggest pyramid in the world, which is concealed behind a mountain. At the top of the pyramid, there is the church of Our Lady of Remedies.
