Private tours in Mexico City
Polanco is the most upscale and expensive neighborhood in Mexico City. So, it’s a great, quiet, relaxed place to spend a lazy Sunday. This is where the elite of CDMX come to shop, dine and mingle. The posh and glamourous residents mill about with their tiny dogs and huge luxury cars.
Polanco is located north of Paseo de la Reforma and just south of Avenida Ejercito Nacional. To the east and west Polanco sandwiches between Avenida Mariano Escobedo and Boulevard Manuel Avila Camacho. You can always easily Uber in and out of Polanco but if you want to take the subway to Metro Polanco.

SOUMAYA MUSEUM
Blvd. Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra 303, Granada, 11529 Ciudad de México, CDMX, Mexico

Musset 44, Polanco, Polanco III Secc, 11550 Ciudad de México, CDMX, Mexico
