Just weeks after their headline-making wedding, Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez Bezos traded red carpets for cobblestone streets, surprising paparazzi and fans as they were spotted sightseeing in the colorful Coyoacán district of Mexico City. Known for its bohemian vibe, vibrant plazas, and historic landmarks, Coyoacán was the perfect backdrop for the couple’s first public appearance following a deeply personal family loss.

The newlyweds’ trip comes shortly after the passing of Jeff Bezos’s mother, Jackie, who died on August 14 at the age of 78 from a neurodegenerative disorder. After such an emotional farewell, the Amazon founder's trip to Mexico seems to mark a getaway for healing and reconnection.

Casual but Chic

Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez Bezos kept their looks casual yet striking during their stroll in Coyoacán. Bezos went for a low-key, classic style with a fitted black polo shirt paired with blue jeans, finished off with sleek aviator sunglasses. The outfit gave him a polished but relaxed vibe, perfect for blending in while still looking sharp.

On the other hand, Lauren Sanchez Bezos brought a touch of glamour. She wore a white halter-neck dress with a plunging neckline and subtle lace-like texture that highlighted her figure. Oversized gold earrings and dark sunglasses added a chic edge, while her high ponytail kept the look youthful and fresh.

From Cabo to Mexico City

This isn’t Bezos’s first brush with Mexico’s beauty. Back in 2021, he vacationed in Cabo San Lucas, but this time, the billionaire isn’t just vacationing; he’s experiencing the culture with his partner by his side. Strolling hand in hand through Coyoacán’s charming streets and visiting the world-famous Frida Kahlo Museum, Bezos and Sanchez leaned into the role of curious travelers rather than global icons.

Local media reported that the couple arrived the night before and wasted no time immersing themselves in the city’s nightlife, stopping at the exclusive Handshake bar, a hidden speakeasy consistently ranked among the best cocktail bars in the world. The stop suggests that their trip is about savoring Mexico City’s rich culinary and cultural offerings.

What’s Next on Their Itinerary?

While Coyoacán was their first stop, all eyes are on where Bezos and Sanchez Bezos might head next. Will they drift through the iconic canals of Xochimilco, where mariachi boats turn every ride into a floating fiesta? Or stand in awe at the ancient pyramids of Teotihuacán? Perhaps they’ll explore the treasures of the National Museum of Anthropology, one of the most celebrated institutions in Latin America.
