If you’re an admirer of architectural wonders, the Pyramid of the Sun simply can't be missed. The structure was built without the benefit of the wheel or any beasts of burden, so get ready to do that admiring! Add on the Shrine of Guadalupe and you'll soon see why this combo tour is a must for the culturally inquisitive.

The great Pyramid of the Sun is Teotihuacan's most impressive landmark. Brought to the city without the benefit of the wheel or any beasts of burden, 2.5 million tons of stone and earth were used in its construction and were shaped without the use of any metal tools. The pyramid is also noted for having been completed in the year 100 A.D.

The Basilica (shrine) of Guadalupe is one of Mexico's great pilgrimage centers. The original church was built in 1533, after Juan Diego reputedly saw a brilliant vision of the Virgin Mary, who commanded him to build a church on a hill.
