Mysteries and Traditions of the Day of the Dead in Mexico

Overview of the tour in Mexico City

The Tour is offered in a special way during this important time in Mexico when we celebrate and remember our loved ones who have gone to the Mictlan.

It is a journey through selected pieces in the Museum of Anthropology that tell us about Death in Pre-Hispanic Mexico and the gods that accompanied the dead in their descent to the afterlife. The tour provider is a historian specialized in Ancient Mexico and a graduate of the National Autonomous University of Mexico, the most prestigious in the country.

The Tour is offered for cultural and spiritual enrichment of anyone who wants to broaden their vision about the concept of Death and the way in which the ancient peoples of Mexico assumed it.
