Day of the Dead: A Mexican Celebration for Families
Celebrate life and immerse yourself in the vibrant traditions of Día de los Muertos, the two-day festival that beautifully honors the connection between the living and the departed. This engaging, guided tour is perfect for families eager to learn about the ancient Mexican tradition of Día de los Muertos while having fun together. Held at the Riviera Museum, activities bring to life the colorful ofrendas (offerings) of flowers, photographs, and traditional foods placed on altars and designed to stir the spirits of those who have passed. Participate in a hands-on workshop where children can decorate cookies and adorn a candy skull, a symbol of the day's joyful spirit. Discover the iconic La Catrina, the elegant skeleton figure that has become a symbol of the holiday, and delve into the legends of the underworld Xibalba, the "place of fright" ruled by Mayan gods of death. For added fun, children can have their faces painted in the Día de los Muertos style, blending in with the day's otherworldly beings.
What you will see along the way:
Ensenada, Mexico, is a vibrant coastal town that captures the essence of Baja California's charm. The lively streets offer a delightful blend of traditional Mexican architecture, colorful murals, and inviting cafés.
Shopping:
After this lively celebration, take some time to explore downtown Ensenada. Enjoy a bite to eat, find the perfect Mexican keepsake, or simply soak in the local atmosphere before heading back to the ship.
Beverage:
A bottle of water is provided.
