Guided hike and exploring the archeological site of Cuicuilco, Sun, Jan 26, 2025, 10:00 AM

Join us for an engaging guided hike through the stunning archaeological site of Cuicuilco, located in Mexico City, one of the six renowned archaeological sites in the area.

Dating back to 1400 BC, Cuicuilco is considered one of the oldest urban centers in the Valley of Mexico. This ancient settlement coexisted with the Olmec civilization from the Gulf Coast regions of lowland Veracruz and Tabasco, indicating potential interactions between these cultures.

Cuicuilco's history took a dramatic turn when the Xitle volcano erupted, leading to its abandonment and subsequent migrations. This event contributed to the rise of Teotihuacan as the dominant power in the Central Highlands during the classical period.

The cost of this enriching experience is 250 pesos, which includes a guided tour lasting approximately 2.5 hours, led by a certified guide proficient in both English and Spanish. As an option, participants can also enjoy lunch together after the hike.
