How your day could unfold

A flexible, unscripted experience designed entirely around your interests. Your host will adapt the day based on what excites you most

What you’ll do

We know that basilicas and historic landmarks might not be so much fun when you’re easily distracted and eight years old, but we’re pretty sure that the huge open parks, zip lines, and energy-fuelled days in the open air are. You’ll join one of our friendly hosts, who will make sure you can get on with the important business of enjoying yourself, while they plan your family’s day in Mexico City.

All you need to do is let us know what your family’s vibe is, and we’ll do the rest. You could explore highlights like the eco-park Bioparque Estrella, put together a picnic to enjoy at Bosque de Chapultepec; a forest where you can rent paddle boats and paddle up the river, explore monuments, or find some yummy tacos at a food stall or lakeside restaurant.

Perhaps you want to check out the miniature village at KidZania if your little ones are very little, or climb aboard one of the colorful barges of Xochimilco and discover the Ancient Aztec side of the city! Whatever it is, our host will be sure to ensure you have lots of fun in the city!
