Lando and the excursion company were amazing. They were in contact with my husband and I before our trip and answered our questions on a timely friendly manner. Lando is very charismatic, punctual and full of knowledge. He’s very hands-on and a wicked awesome photographer. No need to bring your camera Lando uses his phone and creates the most memorable picture of which he shares with you at the end of the excursion. He is very flexible and accommodating. Our Instagram has never looked better thanks to his good eye for photos. This tour is perfect for couples who are celebrating anniversary, nuptials or just want the opportunity for an intimate tour of Mexico. It was great not being at the mercy of a large group. The food that was included in the tour was super yummy.
