Mexico City
Why Mexico City
Colorful, dramatic, sophisticated, unstoppable, unforgettable: Mexico City is everything you want from a world-class destination. Every experience here comes with infectious flair and gusto, from a pyramid peak to a towering Spanish colonial cathedral, browsing artesanías (handicrafts) at a local market to tasting the best tacos on the planet. Twenty million strong can’t be wrong. It’s a city unlike another.
ONLY WITH MO/AD
Experience the city from a richly local perspective, from a stylish home base in its hippest barrio to ringside seats where we cheer on colorfully attired luchadores (traditional wrestlers). Meet a celebrated local foodie, who introduces you to the best street food and local markets, then get the story behind mezcals you taste alongside local experts. Unleash your artistic side in this city of Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera, as a graffiti artist leads you from high-end galleries to local street art. Our Mexico City retreat is unlike any other.
