Itinerary

  • N/A

    Mérida is the capital and most populated city of the state of Yucatán, head of the homonymous municipality and the twelfth city with the most inhabitants in Mexico. It is located in the southeast of the country, in the northwestern region of the state. The city was founded on January 6, 1542 on the remains of the Mayan city called T'Hó, which was virtually uninhabited when the Europeans conquered the Yucatan Peninsula.

    30 minutes

  • Paseo de Montejo

    Paseo de Montejo is the name of a main road in the city of Mérida, Mexico, named after Francisco de Montejo, conqueror of Yucatán and founder of the capital city of Yucatán. It is an avenue that runs from the Santa Ana neighborhood, in the center of the city, to the exit towards the port of Progreso, Yucatán, including the extensions made at different times. Numerous public and private institutions are located along its route and it is the main part of the Mérida tourist corridor. The layout and design are inspired by that of the French boulevards, especially that of the Champs Elysees in Paris. Flanked by large trees, it has a median and numerous roundabouts. On both sides of this avenue, beautiful palaces and mansions of wealthy people from the Yucatan of the 19th century were built.

    30 minutes

  • Monumento a la Patria

    It is located on Paseo de Montejo in one of the most trafficked roundabouts in the city of Merida. It is the work of the sculptor Romulo Rozo, who through this work shows us part of the history of Mexico, from the founding of Tenochtitlán until the mid-twentieth century. Details of the work: In this monument you can find many details of Yucatan, such as. The shield of the city of Mérida, the chacmol, the Mayan hut, 2 armed and prostrate tiger knights, representing the surrender and protection of the Mexican armed forces. In the lower part we can find a large sculpted ceiba tree, with 4 butterflies in the upper part, the glory and the conquest of the peoples of Mexico. In the center and apart we find the symbol of Mexico, which is the eagle devouring a snake.

    20 minutes

  • El Palacio de Gobierno

    The Palace was built on the same site where the old "Royal Houses" stood in colonial times, which housed the Yucatecan rulers as well as several of their main collaborators. Its location is at the intersection of two of the busiest streets in Mérida: 60 and 61. The Palace project, as we see it today, was carried out in 1879 during the government of Mr. Manuel Romero Ancona, according to a design by the engineer Olegario G. Cantón. The Palace, in an eclectic classicist style, covers a quadrangular surface of 42 meters in front and in the background. It consists of 2 floors adorned with portals and a beautiful quarry stone staircase. Inside, a large central patio stands out. Its façade shows a replica of the bell of the church of the town of Dolores, which the priest Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla used to summon the people to a struggle that ended with the country's independence.

Excellent City Tour

Published on Jan, 2024

Our tour guide was wonderful!! This tour was so interesting that I will probably do it again and I hope with the same guide. I don’t know how many people are like me but when I pay for a tour I want to hear what the guide has to say. It makes it difficult to hear the guide when other people are talking. Remember, you are the customer and you have the right to ask others not to talk when the guide is speaking. Can’t wait to take this tour again to hear everything I missed the first time!

Do Yourself a Favor!

Published on Jul, 2021

This is the BEST Merida City Tour you can possibly take. Comfortable tour bus (even in the middle of summer!), and with a knowledgeable and friendly tour guide that will present in both English & Spanish. The tour is very well planned and introduces you to different areas of the city. HIGHLY recommended! Do yourself a favor and book this tour; do not settle for others.
