Itinerary: A Luxurious Holiday Weekend in Mexico City

Explore one of the world's foremost culinary and cultural capitals.

Mexico City has emerged as one of the world’s most exciting cultural and culinary capitals, a city where centuries-old traditions seamlessly collide with cutting-edge innovation.

Once overshadowed by other global metropolises, CDMX has flourished over the past decade, fueled by a revival of pride in its deep-rooted history, lively art scene, and gastronomic ingenuity.

Its streets hum with life, from avant-garde galleries and far-reaching murals to a food scene that ranges from mouthwatering street tacos to Michelin-starred dining experiences.

Mexico City's thriving cocktail culture, driven by a new wave of mixologists celebrating native ingredients like mezcal and nixtamalized corn, has earned it a place on every connoisseur’s radar.

Visiting in the springtime, between March and May, is especially magical: the jacaranda trees burst into vivid purple bloom, the weather is warm but not stifling, and the city’s outdoor terraces are busy. This luxurious Mexico city itinerary will highlight the priority stop places in the city.
