Mexico City is a huge metropolis, and narrowing down a list of places to visit here is not an easy task.

But things have changed.

Mexico City is now one of the hottest destinations in Latin America, with an incredible food scene, historic landmarks, gorgeous colonial neighborhoods with tree-lined streets and a thriving art scene.

✅ Did you know that Mexico City is the 5th largest city in the world by population.

It also became VERY popular with digital nomads who praise the social scene and the abundance of things to do in this city. If you are one of them, spending a few months in this city is an excellent idea 😊

In this guide, I’m going to give you a complete overview of the top Mexico City attractions and provide insider tips on how to stay safe during your trip.

Visit to Templo Mayor, an open-air museum consisting of the ancient ruins that were the center of the Aztec Empire and were destroyed by the Spanish conquistadors who built the modern Zocalo on top of it. Here you can get some context of the country’s history before moving forward.

Zocalo is a lively place where you can watch street artists, grab some street food, and enjoy the atmosphere. And bring some change to give it to the street performers who make a living here.

  • Parque Alameda Central – Adjacent to Palacio De Bellas Artes, Parque Alameda Central is a sprawling park with gorgeous sculptures and fountains where you can take a break after exploring Zocalo. From March through April, you can also see the blossoming jacaranda trees that come out in stunning purple color.

When you get to the top, you will be treated to incredible panoramic views of the city below you. I recommend coming here for the sunset.

Torre Latinoamericana price: 170 Pesos

Taking a hot air balloon ride is one of the best things to do in Mexico City.

Day 2 in Mexico City: Teotihuacan 

Teotihuacan is a popular tourist attraction outside of Mexico City, one of the most important archaeological areas in the country.

You can book your hot air balloon Tour of Teotihuacán online. Your driver will pick you up at your hotel in the morning and transport you to Teotihuacan from where you will take off in a hot air balloon and see the Pre-Hispanic City as the sun begins to rise.

Driving to Teotihuacan

Teotihuacan is located in the state of Mexico, about 50 kilometers (32 miles) from Mexico City. Getting here takes an average of 1 hour and 20 minutes.

You can also take an Uber from Mexico City to Teotihuacan. It’s going to cost between 600-800 Pesos one waydepending on the day and time, and you can find designated Uber stops near Teotihuacan.

Public transportation from Mexico City to Teotihuacan 

The cheapest way to get from Teotihuacan to Mexico City is by public transportation.

You can catch a bus to Teotihuacan from Terminal Norte. Round trip tickets cost around 200 Pesos, however, make sure that clarify that your bus is going to take you to Zona Arqueologica Teotihuacan (the Archaeological Area), and not San Juan Teotihuacan, the pueblo near the ruins. 

Attend a Lucha Libre show at night 

Lucha Libre is one of the best cultural experiences in Mexico City, even if you are not a fan of wrestling 😃 Lucha Libre is not really about a fight, but more about colorful costumes, acting, and a good mood. 

Arena Mexico is the best place to see Lucha Libre, and you can see luchadores (or wrestlers) dressed in colorful costumes and masks every night. You can book your tickets on the spot or ahead of time. 

You can also book a guided Lucha Libra tour online to have a better and a safer experience since the neighborhood around Arena Mexico is not the safest. Still, you can visit the show on your own, just get an Uber, and don’t walk alone at night. 

Coyoacan is one of the best places to visit in Mexico City

Day 3 in Mexico City: Coyoacan and Xochimilco 

Coyoacan is an unmissable stop on your itinerary, and I suggest at least half a day there.

Coyoacan is one of the oldest neighborhoods of Mexico City about 10 kilometers south of Centro Historico. It’s filled with cobblestone streets, museums, and colonial churches, and has become one of the most popular places in the city.

Coyoacan is one of the best places to visit in Mexico City.

Make a stop in San Angel

If you have extra time, make a stop in San Angel, a sleepy neighborhood with beautiful churches and parks about 10 minutes away from Coyoacan by car.

Saturday Bazaar in San Angle is worth a stop. Here you can buy traditional Mexican textiles, jewelry, and handmade chocolate and cheese. San Angel is located off the beaten path and makes for a great addition to your itinerary.

Getting around Mexico City

  • By Metro – My favorite way to get around Mexico, Metro is the quickest and cheapest way to get around. A one-way ticket costs 5 Pesos, and you can change lines without having to purchase another ticket.
  • By bus – You can explore Mexico City by hop on hop off bus which stops at major attractions or just use a regular bus. As with other public transportation, always use cash.
  • By uber – the best and safest option to get around Mexico City, Uber here charges only a fraction of what you would pay in the United States. Expect to pay 150-200 Pesos for a 30-minute ride. This is a great option, especially during the night when it’s not always safe to walk depending on the neighborhood.

Do you need a car in Mexico City?

Most travelers don’t rent a car Mexico City, as you can get around by Uber or public transportation much faster and cheaper. The traffic in this city is notoriously bad, and drivers can be aggressive. Driving here takes some getting used to and if you want to rent a car, you should be prepared to navigate the traffic.

When should I rent a car in Mexico City?

Renting a car in Mexico City makes sense if you are going to take day trips from Mexico City and visit some of the best pueblos Magicos outside the city like Tepotzlan, Valley De Bravo, or Taxco. Central Mexico has many incredible places many of which are located within 1-2 hours of driving of Mexico City.

I recommend renting a car with DiscoverCars, one of the best car rental companies with flexible rates and good selection of vehicles.

PRO TIP: Read my article on renting a car in Mexico to avoid mistakes and save money.

General safety tips for Mexico City

  • Don’t flash your wealth – Dress in plain, inexpensive clothes that can help you to blend in with the crowd
  • Don’t carry all your valuables in your bag – Carry one credit card and some cash and leave your wallet and other valuables in your hotel room
  • Do not drink tap water – This is one of my general Mexico travel tips. Like in the most of the country, tap water in Mexico is not safe to drink. Bring your reusable bottle that you can refill in some hotels
  • Keep an eye on your backpack/handbag when you are walking in the crowd
  • If something looks sketchy, it probably is – people eager to sell you tours or asking overly personal questions are some of those things. Be polite, but always know when to say no and walk away
  • Use ATMs only affiliated with major banks – Avoid ATMs in building walls and other random places, as they are more likely to be used by criminals to skim your banking information.Santander and Scotia Bank are reputable and have the lowest withdrawal fees of about 34 Pesos (or USD 1.5) per transaction. 
  • Stay around areas frequented by other tourists – Areas like Coyoacan, Reforma, Roma Norte, and Condesa are some of the safest neighborhoods in Mexico City
  • Stay away from regular taxis and take Uber instead – not all taxis are safe in Mexico City. If a taxi doesn’t have a meter, that’s a huge red flag. Always take Uber to stay on the safe side

What is the best time to visit Mexico City?

The best time to visit Mexico City is from March through early May. During this time, the city has the best weather with plenty of warm, sunny days when the average temperature hovers between 20 and 25 degrees Celsius. In March, you can see the blossoming jacarandas that come out in stunning purple color.

September through October is also a good time to plan your trip, as the weather is dry and mild, and it’s not as busy compared to the spring season. November is the beginning of the low season in Mexico City, when you can save money on tours and hotels, if you don’t mind slightly colder temperatures.

Winters can be chilly in Mexico City which could affect your travel plans, and June through October is the rainy season with frequent (but mostly short) downpours. If you don’t mind some occasional rain, this is a great time to visit Mexico City, because prices on hotels and tours are much lower.
