Start your morning with optional yoga and some free time to relax and soak in the adventure thus far. Our neighborhood is filled with quaint coffee shops, artisan markets and mural filled streets.

Afterwards, we head straight for vegan churros and treat ourselves to the majestic Palacio de Bellas Artes for a folk dance performance. Dinner will be a gorgeous balcony terrace restaurant overlooking the town center.

Our team can help put together any activities for you or organize drivers so that you can spend this time exploring the city in your own way. Some travelers love going to see more Diego murals while others like to make it a museum day.

We will learn about the challenges Mexico faces from environmental to social issues. In the afternoon, we will go on a taco and cultural tour of two of the most beautiful neighborhoods in the city, showcasing the Mexican, modern art and diverse influences entering the city in the last decade.
