The adventure
In Mexico, the Day of the Dead isn't about spooky endings — it’s a massive, marigold-scented family reunion. This 8-day trip will take you from the bustling street food stalls of the city straight into the golden fields of cempasúchil (the "flower of the dead") and into local cemeteries where traditions are very much alive. Come for the iconic tacos and market wanders; stay for a perspective on life —and what comes after — that you won't find anywhere else.
Arrive to the hotel meeting point for a 3pm welcome briefing, then head out on a walking tour of Mexico City's streets and markets as the city gears up for Day of the Dead. Finish the tour at a taquería for dinner to enjoy some delicious and authentic tacos.
Enjoy a full day at your leisure in Mexico City. Explore the city's vibrant streets and historic sites on your own. Opt to join a tour of Xochimilco, a system of canals built by the ancient Aztecs.
Journey from Mexico City to the historic city of Puebla and take a guided orientation walk through its charming downtown, filled with colonial architecture and bustling plazas. Enjoy a free afternoon to explore at your own pace.
