Excellent Tour Guides

Published on Dec, 2024

Jorge, Roberto and Gerson were awesome tour guides! We took the Teotihuacan and Basilica tour with them and it was a great experience. Gerson was leading the English tour, and he was very lively, funny and engaging. He gave excellent historical knowledge and we learned so much. Everything was very punctual, and everything from the tequila sampling to the food was great. I would definitely take another of their tours when I come back.

Awesome time at the pyramids, tequila, and more

Published on Dec, 2024

Excellent day with our tour guys George, Gerson and Roberto. Super knowledgeable, extremely nice and accommodating. You can tell they love what they do!

Alicia made the basilica so magical

Published on Dec, 2024

Alicia was an incredible tour guide. Her knowledge of the local history and culture was impressive, and she explained everything in a clear and engaging way. Additionally, her enthusiasm and energy made our tour even more fun and memorable. She was always attentive to our questions and needs, ensuring that everyone enjoyed the experience. Without a doubt, Alicia is an exceptional guide who made our trip special. I would recommend her services to anyone looking to enjoy an informative and fun visit!

Great experience

Published on May, 2024

The tour was great. The guides taught us a lot about where we went and gave us enough time to explore on our own. Everything was very authentic and I did not feel harassed to buy things. I would recommend to a friend. Also great price!!

Jaw Dropping Hike with Knowledgeable Expert

Published on Feb, 2024

The landscape is just stunning… both mountains were snow capped and calling to be photographed at every turn. The hike was not very strenuous but the altitude could be felt with some chest tightening and shorter pace. Fabrizio is a highly experienced alpinist, very humble, kind, gentle-spirited — he looks out for his climbers which builds a ton of trust. He made the experience the most memorable.
