About the tour
On this private tour, you will discover how the Virgin of Guadalupe has shaped Mexican culture not only for believers, but also for those who appreciate her historical, artistic, and social significance. Your experience offers an insightful look into the traditions, symbolism, and enduring influence of this sacred site.
You will visit both the New Basilica, home to the revered tilma of Our Lady of Guadalupe, and the Old Basilica, an architectural and historical treasure. The journey continues with a walk up Tepeyac Hill, the site where the miraculous apparitions are believed to have occurred, including the appearance of fresh roses that changed the course of history.
Next, explore the Basilica Museum, housed in the former Capuchin convent. Here, you will admire an exceptional collection of Novo-Hispanic (Colonial-era) art, religious artifacts, and cultural treasures that provide deeper context to the devotion surrounding the Virgin of Guadalupe.
The tour concludes with free time for personal exploration, quiet reflection, or the opportunity to attend Mass, allowing you to experience the Basilica at your own pace and in your own way.
