Cholula Magical Town 6-Hour Tour by Double-Decker Bus

Church Of San Francisco, Puebla, Puebla, Mexico

Tip Tours & DMC

Explore the renowned Pyramid of Cholula during a 6-hour double-decker bus tour of Cholula Town. Marvel at its impressive size while traversing a breathtaking volcanic terrain. En route, make a pitstop at the historic Sanctuary of Our Lady of the Assumption (S. Maria Tonanzintla) and admire the ancient Acatepec Temples.



Depart from Puebla City's main plaza (Zocalo) and proceed by traditional double-decker bus five miles west toward the "double" town of Cholula. This ancient town merges the historical centers of San Pedro and San Andrés, forming a singular entity known as Cholula. Each village boasts its own main square and ecclesiastical structure; however, their proximity has rendered them indistinguishable in terms of identity.

Embark upon a panoramic tour starting in the heart of San Pedro Cholula at the Plaza de la Concordia, where the Convento de San Gabriel, constructed by Franciscans in 1549, stands atop the remnants of an earlier temple devoted to Quetzalcoatl. Proceed to the majestic Great Pyramid of Cholula, the largest in the world. Upon reaching the summit, gaze upon the Nuestra Señora de los Remedios Temple, inaugurated by the Spanish in 1549. Next, venture into San Andrés Cholula and explore the charming Parish Church.

Upon reboarding the bus, transfer to the magnificent Templo de San Francisco Acatepec and Santa María Tonanzintla, marveling at the rich Mexican Baroque architectural style. Every nook and cranny of these structures is adorned with intricate details. Continue through San Pedro Cholula, passing by the Wizard's House and the Cabaña de Oro cider factory. Finally, arrive at the bustling Zocalo of San Pedro Cholula and allow yourself ample free time to engage with the Grand Pyramid, local market, Royal Chapel, San Gabriel Convent, and Plaza de la Concordia.
