Day of the Dead in Mexico City

Day 1 - Mexico City

Arrive at any time. Day of the Dead takes place between October 31 and November 2 and is a celebration and remembrance of the deceased. Families will build private altars and bring large feasts to cemeteries, to be with the souls of the departed. It is believed that the souls will come back to visit and take part in the celebrations. Some of the "ofrendas" (altars) are very elaborate and include sugar skulls and marigold flowers. In most regions, the souls of infants and children are honoured on November 1. Adults are remembered on November 2. It is generally a festive rather than somber gathering.

Day 2 - Mexico City

Get out and explore Mexico City by walking through the historic centre with the CEO. Stop by the Jamaica Market to chat with some vendors, and learn about Day of the Dead goods for sale. Visit the San Juan Market to check out food stalls and sample some delicious Mexican street food.

Day 3 - Mexico City

In the morning travel to Xochimilco, a natural reserve where the farmlands of the ancient Aztec people were created with a system of "chinampas" and water channels. Witness how the inhabitants of Xochimilco integrate their unique natural elements and landscape into their Day of the Dead celebrations. Cruise along the channels in a traditionally decorated trajinera and learn more about the local history from a knowledgeable guide. Make a stop at one of the chinampas or floating gardens, and have an included meal before having time to decorate your faces with traditional make-up for the celebrations. The final stop of the day will be to Xochimilco ́s cemetery and the heart of Day of the Dead.
