Sebastián was amazing! He was so quick to respond each time we reached out with confirmations, questions, and requests. He was so kind and polite. He made us feel safe and welcomed. The tour was given in English as my partner did not speak Spanish well. This was such a treat!! He knew so much about each place we went to and took it upon himself to take the best photos of us. You could tell he loves what he does and he does it well. Thank you Sebastian!!
Excellent overview by Sébastien of Acapulco must see highlights. His knowledge of Mexican history certainly enhanced our tour. Very flexible in the itinerary. Would do this private tour again.
Would have liked a better,closer view of the cliff divers. Nice that Silver shop provided a cold drink. Lunch stop fun, great view and yummy food. Margaritas packed a punch. Tour guide and driver did a very good job!
Sebastian was on time and professional. The stops were the perfect amount o time. The shuttle A/C was great and our stop to see the divers was great.
The guide Sebastian was wonderful and had a great sense of humor. He was very informative and knowledgeable about the places and things he was showing us.
The Guide could not have been more lovely and accommodating! The van was air conditioned but the seats were not comfortable. My knees had no room and I’m only 5’7” tall. This was a small group tour and my husband and I were 2 of 8. The other passengers talked while the Tori guide was trying to give us the history. That was very annoying! The guide was knowledgeable and had great information.
Sebastián is an outstanding guide. His knowledge of the city is amazing. He knows the history and can talk about the current post-hurricane situation. We have a new appreciation for the city we have heard about forever. He knows the best spots for photos. We had a great time and highly recommend this way to get to know the city.
We had a great experience visiting Acapulco thanks to Sebastian Hernandez Ricardo. He is a very informed, and educated guide. Not only that he shared the history of the city but also he enjoyed us with spanish idioms. It was a pleasure having him as a tour guide. Tuvimos una experiencia maravillosa con el tour de la ciudad de Acapulco gracias a Sebastian Hernandez Ricardo. El es una persona muy informada y educada. No mas nos conto la historia de la ciudad y tambien nos encanto con unas palabras mas usada en Acapulco. Fue in placer visitar la ciudad con Sebastian.
Sébastien H. is a great tour guide. The tour itself was very interesting and informative. This tour is one we will use on our future trip here. The stops were all great especially the chapel on the mountain top. Such a beautiful view from there. Sébastien was full of information about Acapulco's past and present. The cliff diving was a treat to see in person. The food at the Pink Flamingo was to write home about. All the stops had a great vibe of their own. The pickup time/location was accurate and on time. 11/13/24 was an exceptional day for us by choosing this tour. Thanks again Sébastien.
Sebastian was a wonderful tour guide and a awesome person as well. He made my wife and myself feel like a family member from the time we met. His knowledge of Acupoco was excellent. Each stop on our City Tour was amazing, and very beautiful. I would definitely recommend using Sebastian for the city tours, as well as all of the other tours he does. A life experience we will never forget. A friend we will always remember. 25th Wedding Anniversary was awesome.
