Get in
Tlalpan, located in Mexico City, is one of the few boroughs that does not have subway service. However, there are convenient ways to reach the Centro Historico of Tlalpan. One option is to take an RTP bus, which you can find by looking for a sign that reads "San Fernando". Ask the driver to take you to "Tlalpan Centro". Another option is to take an RTP bus that travels along Insurgentes Sur, which later becomes the Federal (Libre) Highway to Cuernavaca. Keep in mind that the area lacks traffic signs, so it's best to ask people for directions.
