About This Tour

A private tour for your group only — the real Zócalo, the Metropolitan Cathedral, and the National Palace at the heart of Mexico City's Historic Center. This is a private tour for your group only. Real stops include the Zócalo — one of the largest public squares in the world — the Metropolitan Cathedral, and the National Palace, all in Mexico City's genuine Historic Center.

Beneath the Zócalo's open plaza lies real, excavated evidence of what stood here before the Spanish arrived: the ruins of the Templo Mayor, the main temple of the Aztec capital Tenochtitlan, dedicated to the gods Huitzilopochtli and Tlaloc. Those ruins sat buried and largely forgotten for centuries until utility workers struck the carved Coyolxauhqui stone in February 1978, triggering a major excavation led by archaeologist Eduardo Matos Moctezuma that's still ongoing today.

The Metropolitan Cathedral standing just beside those ruins was built directly on top of the Aztec sacred precinct, using stones taken from the demolished temple itself — a real, deliberate act by the conquistadors to assert authority over the site. Construction stretched across 240 years, from 1573 to 1813, which is why the building shows off such a layered mix of architectural styles from one end to the other.

The National Palace completes the square, standing on ground that's been a genuine seat of power since Aztec times — first Moctezuma II's residence, then Hernán Cortés's, then the Spanish viceroys', and since 1821 Mexico's own federal government. Diego Rivera spent 22 years painting its main staircase murals, tracing the country's history from the Conquest through the Revolution.
