Tour description

Discover the stories, symbols, and civilizations that shaped Mexico on a fascinating tour through the Mexica, Maya, and Teotihuacan halls of the National Museum of Anthropology, one of the most important museums in the world. Throughout the tour, we will travel from the original cultures to the great Mesoamerican empires, exploring iconic pieces like the Sun Stone and many more, always with clear context, anecdotes, and easy-to-understand explanations.

This tour is designed so that you not only see display cases but truly understand how the civilizations that inhabited this territory before the arrival of the Spanish thought, lived, and organized themselves. We will talk about gods, worldview, rituals, architecture, and cultural legacy, connecting the past with present-day Mexico.

Ideal whether it's your first time at the museum or if you want to delve deeper and discover details that often go unnoticed. It will be a dynamic, engaging experience full of stories that will bring the museum to life.

The tour does not include the cost of entry to the Museum: $105.00 MXN for nationals and resident foreigners, $210.00 MXN for non-resident foreigners. Admission is free for Mexicans and residents on Sundays, children under 13, adults with an INAPAM card, and teachers and students with a valid ID.
