Your trip commences at Downtown Mexico City, where a scenic drive to Cuernavaca, otherwise known as the city of “eternal spring” boasts scenic countryside views. Once here, you will head straight for its cathedral, one of Mexico’s oldest cathedrals! Visit the Palacio de Cortés as well, the oldest conserved colonial-era landmark in continental Americas, and admire its mansions and avenues before moving on to Taxco!

Heading towards the colonial city of Taxco, your guide will brief you in on the 100-years worth of history behind its cherished landmarks. Pass by cobbled streets, tile-roofed buildings, and cozy squares that still offer the Old World ambiance, even today. Visit one of Mexico’s grandest churches here, the Santa Prisca, built in 1759. Finally, spend some time roaming about the town on your own, and marvel at the works of local artisans!
