Guide with little experience, little information on the roadmap.

Very long time, but most of the time there was no information on the part of the guide. I do not recommend.

Nice tour but could be more satisfying

The cities visited very beautiful and the guide very trained, however the transport unit was somewhat uncomfortable; likewise the times were not well distributed.

All day Taxco and Cuernavaca.

Friendly and knowledgeable tour guide. Not happy with our lunch destination. Would have preferred a traditional Mexican meal.

Sunny trip to Cuernavaca and Taxco

This was a lovely trip to take. Not far away from Mexico City, you get the chance to visit two places Cuernavaca and Taxco on the same day, and not get too tired. We also stoped by to shop for some silver jewlery and had an amazing lunch in Taxco. This town is amazing, beautiful views, quaint streets, cute little corners, and ofcourse lovely people. Our tour guide Julio Cesar was well prepared, full of positive energy and always there for us. Thank you!

Very Good Tour

It was a very informative tour. The weather and temperature were perfect. My friend and I walked around the site and discussed how closely related we Humans are.

Great experience

Our Spanish speaker guide was awesome, knowledgeable with a great sense of humor and accommodating. Unfortunately I forgot his name, but has a not common name.

Great 1 day trip in Taxco/Cuernavaca

My wife and sister-in-law booked this trip the day before and they made it work for us. It was a long day and very hot but the van had some AC to make it a little more comfortable. The town of Taxco was a very cute little town and wish we could stay there for our next trip. They also picked us up from our AirBnb so there was no need to be at a meeting point. The tour guide was very nice and good at his job. He was bilingual (Spanish and English) and made sure both languages were included. We definitely recommend for anyone trying to get to see a cute town.

Taxco only tour

This tour was advertised as English but it was all in Spanish. We were asked to meet at 7:30am at the meeting spot but got shuffled from van to van all morning. We finally got going on our 3rd van transfer at about 11am. We spent so much time in a silver jewelry store on our way to Taxco even though the majority of us had expressed we did not want to shop. Once we finally got to Taxco, we were shuffled into a touristy spot for lunch. We didn’t want to eat there, we prefer to eat at the local markets always. The guide told us she would not wait for us if they finished earlier than the 1 hour allocated for lunch to begin the walking tour. Anyone who has been to Taxco knows how easy it is to get lost there and that’s exactly what happened. So we explored on our own. She told us to meet at a certain meeting spot at a certain time. We were there and of course our guide was not. So here we are again waiting for her even though she wouldn’t wait for us to go have an authentic lunch. This tour said it was a tour to Taxco and Cuernavaca. We spent a total of 30 minutes in Cuernavaca, 20 of those minutes were waiting in the cold for another tour to end so we could consolidate people into 1 bus. We only got to see the cathedral in Cuernavaca but by the time we arrived it was closed and dark so we were rushed in and out and really saw nothing. Total disappointment of a tour.

Operator response

We are sorry that our tour was not to your liking. Regarding the pickup, it is not possible that we would have left at 11, we finished at 9:30 and at that time we began the tour. Regarding food, a restaurant is always suggested so as not to separate the group and after they finish, continue with the tour. . All our guides are bilingual and do the tours in both languages.

Taxco city of silver and the streets that go up and down

Taxco is a spectacular city, the photos turn out incredible, silver and jewelry everywhere at a very good price. The people are very friendly and the views are the best.
