This tour takes you to explore Cholula, the oldest living town in Latin America, full of history, tradition and culture. Here you will discover the largest pyramid in the world, not only for its imposing base, but also for its relevance as a pre-Hispanic ceremonial center. You will walk through the inner tunnels of the pyramid and admire the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Remedies, located at its peak, from where you get spectacular views of the volcanoes and the valley.
In addition, you will visit two gems of Baroque art: the Church of Santa Maria Tonantzintla, with its unique decoration that mixes indigenous and Catholic symbolism, and the Church of San Francisco Acatepec, famous for its dazzling talavera facade. This tour combines history, architecture and unforgettable landscapes, making Cholula a must-see destination. A fascinating experience in the heart of Puebla!

5.00Alexa was a wonderful guide. Very knowledgeable about the history of Cholula and also Puebla. My brother and I learned a great deal about the site, including the church that sits above the ruins. We are both in our 70's and I was pretty slow. Alexa was very patient and encouraging. I am so glad we took this tour. Also, 2 more excellent churches were included and we had mezcal and tequilla tastings, too. Highly recommend the service of Alexa and our driver, Alberto!

3.00Tour was okay. Saw the pyramid and churches. Felt the tour guide could have been a little more enthusiastic. The driver was good. Felt some free time could have been given in Cholula given we drove through the town.
Great experience!

5.00Fabulous tour! Damian was such a kind and interesting tour guide with excellent English. We saw the museum, pyramid, and two churches and also stopped at a small store with lovely Talavera pottery at an excellent price. Damian was full of stories and interesting explanations about everything we saw. He was a fount of knowledge. We’d love to take more tours with him in the future. The driver was also safe, courteous, and very kind.
