The destinations are magical but the recommended restaurant in Taxco is not the best. It is also not very comfortable that with the excuse of learning from the extraction of silver you will be locked to buy things. Good guide with good command of the subject
Gracias por tus importantes comentarios, importante que el guia haya hecho una buena explicacion, a veces al ser tour grupal los pasan a comer a buffet para que sea mas rapido y sobre todo en temporada pico de formula 1 y Dia de Muertos, los restaurantes a la carta es imposible poder salir temprano, es la razon para pasar por una breve explicaciom y hacer un buffet que nos agiliza la operacion en dia de temporada alta. Esperamos se lleve la mejor impresion del tour a pesar de los detalles Saludos!
Azteca failed to come and pick us up as per agreement with the company driver/guide. They claimed that they were coming at 8:20AM versus the time slot of 9AM pickup. We just learned that they were already outside of the hotel where we were. Accordingly, they sent us a message which we never got until we got their phone call.
Estimado pasajero nosotros Confirmamos la hora de Pick Up previamente incluso usted contestó confirmando por mensaje directo de esta misma plataforma El día de la salida mis compañeros lo estuvieron esperando más de 20 minutos y cuando usted salió dijo que tenía una cita médica Justo a la hora del tour no podíamos esperar lo más tiempo se le avisó acorde a las políticas de la empresa. Lamentamos mucho la situación sin embargo el servicio estaba listo a la hora que se aviso previamente e incluso usted habló con el guía físicamente y aun asi no quiso tomar el tour Es una lástima que usted ponga este comentario cuando fue usted mismo el que no quiso tomar el Tour porque tenía una cita médica y no se hizo responsable de su confirmación de pick up
It was a pleasant and enjoyable trip. Our gide very knowledgeable and our driver very safe. The restaurant I give 3.5 stars but it's expected for turists. I recommend this tour to everyone.
Taxco: City of silver, a must for any Mexican visitor.A pretty colonial town, 3 hours drive from Mexico City
This entire experience was not great. We were picked up last (45 mins late) and had to sit in the far back of the “luxury” van. Our first stop was Cuernavaca and when we exited, I requested we rotate seats as the back row was exceptionally uncomfortable for a 6’1” person. Our guide, Ursula, told to ask someone to switch and it wasn’t her problem. Needless to say, no one would switch and we spent over 5 hours cramped up in the back of the van. This was booked as ab English trip but at no stop did anyone speak English, only Spanish. Cuernavaca and Taxco were just opportunities to sell crap to tourists, we didn’t see any of the city or the major sights. Such a waste of time and money. Avoid this one !!!
We are very sorry about the trip, unfortunately It was the peak season of turists in México because of the F1 and Dia de Muertos that is why the vans were full and therr were delays. It is important to say most of turists like the tour because is visiting a small town of México.
Our family enjoyed a great day in Taxco, our driver and guide Manuel was very kind and accommodating. We enjoyed a comfortable ride in both directions despite the heavy traffic. Manuel showed us some shops and a nice restaurant for lunch and also gave us plenty of time as we desired at all of the locations. A very nice day and really great guy as our guide and driver.
Thank you very much for your comments !! Have a nice day!
The guide is very good and excellent care, the trip to Cuernavaca and Taxco is very cute and knows a lot, and the food is very good.
Muchas gracias por elegirnos y que bonito que lo hayan pasado bien Es un gran gusto y esperamos poder verlos de nuevo en sus viajes por México
All fatherly! We loved it, the streets, the people, the food. We are very happy, we were able to buy things at the market and we ate a delicious pozole.
Muchas gracias por confiar en nosotros Esperamos que regrese muy pronto.
Nice tour, excellent guide Carlos. I do not suggest buying through trip advisor you pay double, buy in Mexico local.
The tour was a bit disorganized with our pickup being 30 minutes late and then stopping for gas (the van should have been filled prior to picking anyone up) for 30 minutes (we were told it would be only 10), which cost us an hour. Cuernavaca was OK, though, due to earthquake damage, some of the sites were closed. In Taxco, after visiting a decent jewelry shop, our guide led us to lunch at an OK restaurant near the center of town, but, after that, he lost a bit of control over the group (we were 12) and the visit to the cathedral was a bit chaotic. Further, we were not told about being able to climb the church tower to get a vista over the whole town. Lastly, Taxco is overrun with cars in its streets and, unless something is changed, will be ruined by traffic. It makes it hard to enjoy the city unless you get away onto the side streets too small for cars. Also, keep in mind that this tour will have you in a van for nearly 6 hours.
Thank you for the comments It is important to say that is a shared tour picking up in hotels in the most crowded city CDMX, so sometimes and mostly in high season is difficult to get extrictly on time for the pick up. We hope you enjoyed it Thank you
