At the indicated time, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Pachuca and head to the municipality of Tulla de Allende, where the Archaeological Site of Tula is located. This city was the capital of the Toltec state, originally named Tollan-Xicocotitlan, later known as 'Tula' after Spanish colonization.

During the tour of the Archaeological Site of Tula, we'll explore key aspects of Toltec culture and the chronicles, including the confrontation between Quetzalcoatl and Tezcatlipoca.

As we explore the ruins, we'll visit the Burnt Palace and the Pyramid of Tlahuizcalpantecuhtli, where we will encounter the Atlantes of Tula, four large anthropomorphic figures representing Toltec warriors.

After 7 hours of history and archaeology, we'll return to Pachuca and drop you off at your hotel.
