Taxco Tour

We'll meet at the indicated time at Benito Juarez street in Taxco to start this guided tour of the historic center. Throughout the tour, we will uncover the attractions of this Pueblo Mágico.

Our first stop will be at the ex-convent of San Bernardino de Siena, initially built with adobe in the late 16th century and renovated in 1804 in the neoclassical style.

After the ex-convent, we'll view the statues of penitents that commemorate Taxco's Holy Week.

Continuing, we’ll walk to Plaza Borda, also known as Zócalo, which means "place where they play ball." We will stop at Casa Borda, a historic building from 1759, now a cultural center.

We’ll also pass by the exterior of the Casa Humboldt, the Viceroyalty Art Museum, and the Casa Figueroa (or Casa de las Lágrimas).

Before concluding our tour, we will visit the Church of Santa Prisca and San Sebastian, recognized as one of the notable baroque churches in Mexico.

We will say our goodbyes 2 hours later in front of the silver tianguis, an open-air market with various silver jewelry.
