Travel & Accommodations

Everything you need to get to Mexico and make a proper trip of it.

Getting there

Fly into Mexico City (MEX)

Benito Juárez International Airport is the main hub, well connected from most major US and international cities. Felipe Ángeles (NLU) is a secondary option to the north.

From the airport

Authorized airport taxis and Uber/Didi are reliable. The ride into Roma Norte / Condesa takes 30–60 minutes depending on traffic.

To Tepoztlán

Tepoztlán is about a 1.5-hour drive south of Mexico City. We'll share a shuttle schedule for the wedding day closer to the date.

Where to stay

Mexico City (Thursday night)

We recommend basing yourself in Roma Norte or Condesa — walkable, leafy, and full of great food. Boutique hotels and apartments abound.

Tepoztlán (Fri & Sat nights)

Plan to stay two nights in Tepoztlán for the wedding weekend — Friday and Saturday (the wedding night). Our hotel, La Buena Vibra, is just below, and there are also plenty of lovely Airbnbs tucked around town if you'd rather have your own spot.

Getting around

Rideshare

Uber and Didi work throughout Mexico City and are inexpensive. Great for getting between neighborhoods and events.

Good to know

December weather is mild and dry — sunny days, cool evenings. Pack a layer for the rooftop. Tap water isn't potable; stick to bottled.

See & do — Mexico City

The classics

Wander the Centro Histórico and the Zócalo, catch a show or just the architecture at Palacio de Bellas Artes, and stroll Chapultepec Park with a stop at the world-class Museo Nacional de Antropología.

A little further

Climb the pyramids at Teotihuacán, get lost in colorful Coyoacán and the Frida Kahlo Museum, or drift through the canals of Xochimilco on a trajinera.

Eat & drink — Mexico City

Sit-down favorites

Book ahead for Pujol or Quintonil for a special tasting menu, grab the tuna tostada at Contramar for lunch, and don't skip a classic cantina dinner in Roma or Condesa.

Street eats & sweets

Tacos al pastor at El Huequito or El Califa, market browsing at Mercado Roma or Mercado de San Juan, and churros con chocolate at El Moro to finish the night.

See & eat — Tepoztlán

Sites to see

Hike up to the Tepozteco pyramid for unreal valley views, explore the Ex-Convento de la Natividad, and browse the artisan and food stalls along the town market — best on weekends.

Where to eat

Try local itacates from a street stand, sit down for traditional Mexican at Los Colorines, relax at the café in La Sombra del Sabino, and cool off with a scoop from Tepoznieves.
