Explore different eras of Mexico City, on this guided tour of the most historical places in the Chapultepec Forest: the Chapultepec Castle and the National Anthropological Museum.

Tour Details

Our first stop will be the Chapultepec Castle, currently the National History Museum. It was the scene of numerous battles during the American invasion and served as a military college and Presidential residence until 1944. It also functioned as the imperial palace of Maximiliano and Carlota during the "Second Mexican Empire."

We'll spend 1 hour 30 minutes visiting the castle, where we'll see sculptures of historical figures such as Cuauhte?moc and Hernán Cortés, and learn about the conquest, independence, and revolution. You will enjoy views of Mexico City from the balconies of the Chapultepec Castle and have free time for a refreshing drink.

The tour continues with a 2-hour 30-minute guided experience at the National Anthropological Museum, which holds the largest collection of pre-Colombian art in the world. We will discover reconstructions of Aztec and Mayan tombs and temples, along with archaeological pieces from various ancient civilizations.
