An interesting day in Mexico City

The guide, Ursula, was very knowledgeable and friendly. She gave us extensive explanations and history at each spot. The negatives were the lunch, which was horrible and the driver, who drove very fast and recklessly. We felt sick when we got off the bus at our hotel.

Operator response

We are glad you had a great day and enjoyed the tour. I will share your feedback with Ursula and we´ll make sure to give your comments to the operator and driver. Thank you Hope to see you soon All best

Teotihuacan was the best...

Teotihuacan was the best part though there was no Mezal. It was one shot of tequila. It’s not the tour’s fault but COVID means you cannot climb the ruins as is shown in the photos

Operator response

Espectacular / Spectacular

Pasamos un día espectacular con Úrsula de guía y Ricardo al volante. Ambos muy amables. Úrsula fue guía ideal por su conocimiento, personalidad llevadera, y organización. Aunque hemos visitado México varias veces, ahora nos sentimos mucho más informadas sobre la historia y culturas mexicanas. We had a spectacular day with Úrsula our guide and Ricardo driving. Both were very attentive. Úrsula was the perfect for sure to get knowledge, easy going personality, and organization.
