The Best Time to Visit

High Season (September to November): Mexico City experiences its peak in tourism during this period, though visitor numbers remain fairly steady year-round. September marks the end of the rainy season with warm temperatures and frequent showers. By October, the dry season begins, bringing cooler nights. This time also coincides with popular festivals like Day of the Dead.

Shoulder Season (March to May): Spring is a great time to explore Mexico City, with warm nights and dry weather before the rainy season begins. Be sure to book ahead, especially around Easter when many locals are on vacation. Along with Holy Week celebrations, there are several festivals to enjoy during this period.

Low Season (December to February, June to August): The coolest and driest months, December to February, see fewer tourists but offer festive celebrations like Christmas, New Year’s, and Epiphany. While days are pleasant, nights can get chilly, and central heating is rare. In summer (June to August), frequent short rain showers make this season less popular, though indoor activities like museums and markets thrive. June is the hottest month, and air quality improves due to the rain.

Getting Around Mexico City

Mexico City is vast, but getting around is easy with its affordable and efficient public transportation. The Metro is one of the best ways to navigate the city—it's cheap, quick, and covers most major areas. Taxis and ride-sharing apps like Uber are also convenient, but avoid hailing cabs off the street for safety reasons. For a more leisurely option, explore neighborhoods like Roma and Condesa on foot or by renting a bike. Pro tip: Always carry a bit of cash, as some places may not accept cards!

Mastering the Altitude

Mexico City sits at a high altitude, so take it easy the first couple of days. Stay hydrated, avoid intense physical activity, and give your body time to adjust. If you feel lightheaded, rest and enjoy the city’s slower-paced activities like a museum visit or relaxing at a local café.
