Taxco and Cuernavaca Day Trip Itinerary

After meeting at the scheduled time, we will head south to Cuernavaca. Once there, we will admire the colonial style and beautiful squares of the historic center, stopping at the cathedral founded by Franciscan monks and the Cortés palace, home of conquistador Hernán Cortés and now housing the Cauhnáhuac Museum.

Next, we will proceed to Taxco, a colonial city located on a hill with winding cobbled streets. In the historic center, we will see the major religious building, the Santa Prisca, one of the largest churches in Mexico.
