Marianna was an outstanding guide. She was warm, friendly and shared excellent historical information. She engaged all members of our group in the most delightful way. Cesar was an excellent driver who got us to all locations on time and safely. He was very pleasant as well.
Excellent experience! Both Alexa and David were great guides and made the trip a fun!
Alex was an excellent guide! Really kind and patient, as well as knowledgeable. Great experience with him! The places we visited together were great and it’s a really beautiful tour. Some cons (not about the guide): the lunch is too late (3:30 pm) and it makes it hard to focus during the Puebla section of the tour. Also we weren’t explained how the lunch payment worked and it cost 450 Mexican pesos per person, which is a bit expensive and doesn’t include drinks. You can not pay for lunch and find way better food for the same value or less!
Alex was incredible. He's very passionate and cares deeply about the history and culture. He was very informative and enjoyed answering our questions. You do not have to be religious to appreciate the culture and love that went into these churches and communities that continue to show through hundreds of years. I would absolutely suggest this to anyone of my friends or family members. Thank you Alex - Genaro and Amanda :)
Great day on this tour. The pickup from my hotel was effortless…there was hardly any wait for the bus to fill up and we took off. Our tour guide (Arnie?) was excellent, highly knowledgeable, very well informed and provided us with a very intellectually stimulating experience. The stops were very well orchestrated and so were the time allotments. My favorite stop was Puebla…we got to roam for about 3 hours…seems like a lot, but there is a lot to see and engage with! I look forward to doing this again with my family.
Our experience in San Miguel was made more memorable because of Ruben our guide. He was knowledgeable with the history of all the places we visited. The pace of the tour was just right.
They can expect a lot of historical information fun during the boat ride. They should also bring small denominations in cash for the food that will be offered during the boat tour and pay for musicians.
