Tour description
Puebla is one of Mexico's most beautiful colonial cities, a UNESCO World Heritage site famous for its dazzling talavera-tiled facades, its abundance of baroque churches, and its role as the birthplace of mole poblano. Elegant and richly historic, it is a delight to explore. On this walking tour a local guide reveals its treasures.
You will admire the grand cathedral, wander streets of tile-covered mansions, and hear about the Spanish colonial era and the famous Battle of Puebla. Along the way you will discover the crafts and cuisine that make the city special. Colourful and historic, Puebla is a wonderful city to explore on foot.
