Presenting
an artful tour of
Mexico City

july 13th – july 19th, 2017

 

Join CAMIBAart for six night and five full days, as we explore the diverse art of Mexico City on a tour that is personally curated and led by CAMIBAart founders Troy Campa and Rene Ibarra.

This tour is created with flexibility in mind, allowing each guest to determine the speed and structure they desire, while providing access to a wide variety of experiences.

Each morning the group will enjoy art-centric excursions together. 

Each afternoon, guests are provided with curated lists of other sites and experiences in the same area of the morning excursion to consider.  Guest can choose how they'd like to spend their afternoon: 

  • Join Troy & Rene on their planned afternoon excursions and even evening dinner

  • Explore something from the curated list

  • Venture off into the city on your own
