The guided tour begins at the Puebla Town Square at the scheduled time, next to the central fountain. The tour explores the connections between Mexico and Europe, highlighting the Puebla cathedral with its Herrerian architectural style, characterized by geometric precision rather than elaborate decoration.

The Spanish influence is also evident in the Palafoxiana Library. Participants will view its main entrance and learn about this significant archive, among the first built in the Americas. After the tour, guests may explore this literary landmark further, along with notable sites such as the Regional Museum of the Mexican Revolution at their leisure.

The tour continues to the Church of San Francisco, the first convent in the city, followed by a visit to the artisan market of El Parián and the renowned 'Alley of the Frogs', where the guide will explain its unusual name.

The tour concludes at the Santo Domingo Church and the Chapel of the Rosary, regarded as two 'colonial jewels' of Puebla's historic centre. The two-and-a-half-hour guided tour will finish in the historic streets.
