Azcapotzalco Mexico City, Mexico Travel Guide
Pack flexible layers to manage the day's temperature changes. Mornings are cool, days are warm, and evenings bring a chill.
Your packing list will shift slightly based on the dry or rainy season, though layering remains universally helpful.
Comfortable Walking shoes or sneakers are absolutely paramount for extensive sightseeing.
Sandals or open-toed shoes work for warmer days, but less practical for long strolls or rain.
Pack dress shoes if your itinerary includes upscale dining or formal events in central Mexico City.
Your passport and visa documentation are your most important items. Ensure everything is valid and readily accessible.
Mexico uses 127V at 60Hz with Type A and B plugs, similar to North America. Plan your charging accordingly.
Utilize helpful apps for navigation and communication, and secure your digital memories.
Utilize cloud services (Google Drive, Dropbox) for automatic photo and document backup.
Consider an External hard drive for on-the-go backups of valuable photos.
Your standard camera gear (e.g. from B&H Photo) is good; a compact camera works well in crowded areas.
A well-stocked personal health kit provides peace of mind and manages minor issues without a pharmacy visit.
Pack remedies for common travel issues and any specific hygiene products you may not find locally.
A small, comfortable Daypack keeps your essentials secure and your hands free for sightseeing.
For specialized photographers, a Tripod aids architectural or night photography. Artists may bring sketchbooks.
Most general travel items can be bought or rented locally. Bring personal essentials, especially broken-in walking shoes.
