About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- delphinedeliav0 contributionsSuper fun!Super fun expérience! The kids absolutely loved it. We were picked up on time with a very big clean car and really nice driver. Highly recommend!Written December 2, 2024
- mwitkop0 contributionsGood EnoughDisjointed, unorganized mess of a trip with a tour guide that just never stopped talking about any and everything. The included lunch will certainly not appeal to everyone because of the limited selections. Nice van and safe driver, but all in all it was worth it once we finally got underway.Written November 17, 2024
- 352phonefix0 contributionsFrom Phone Fix Newry"It’s very good service and very good staff and its very help full guy" "Reasonable price as i went to few shops for price and it was done the same day ."Written November 16, 2024
- Venture705420 contributionsBe careful carry your passport and any stops by the national guard.We were stopped by the national Guard on our way from Cuernavaca to Taxco and were surrounded by guns for an hour with no knowledge of what’s was going on.Written November 15, 2024
- Leta A0 contributionsPleasant tour with limited amount of walking.Our tour guide Susanna was a delight and our driver Luis was excellent. This is probably more a me problem in that I thought there would be more walking time in the market and at the Mazatlan sign. It felt rushed at the market. I feel there should be 30 or 45 minutes for a person to walk around at their leisure. Also, it was disappointing not to be able to stop and take photos at the Mazatlan sign. However, Susanna was entertaining and shared some great facts with us.Written November 12, 2024

- O5176MTmarcop0 contributionswonderful experienceThank you for this great experience, I recommend Mexitours to take a tour and get out of the routine. I definitely recommend itWritten October 25, 2024
- nicholas v0 contributionsMex pyramidsI was not expecting this and I loved it. I felt like i was an archeologist investigating an unknown find. I have been to many pyramids, but what makes this one special is that you're usually the only one there. No crowds. But bring comfortable shoes because the hike to the pyramids is a long one.Written October 10, 2024
- nicholas v0 contributionsGuanajuatoWhat can I say but just beautiful Definitely a must see and experience. Make sure you have a guide that knows the area because you might miss sites that need to be seen like the tunnelsWritten October 10, 2024
- 557davei0 contributionsLucha Libre is amazing!Absolutely a must if you are in Mexico City! We loved this. Go to the area across the road from the arena for some food and drinks beforehand, it’s huge with lots of vendors and a real buzz before you go across for the main event. Door to door transport with a guide that spoke English made everything so easy for us. Not to mention we chose when we wanted to leave and just sent a WhatsApp and the driver was ready for us. Could not recommend this more!!Written October 7, 2024
- sfcelb0 contributionsGreat tour by excellent guide of pretty Puebla and interesting CholulaOur guide Rogelio was an outstanding, friendly and informative guide to Puebla and Cholula, The adventure is a little long and I would probably recommend leaving out Cholula which was okay but the high point of the excursion is beautiful and charming Puebla with it's churches, central square, charming streets and peopleWritten September 28, 2024
- 932lyndad0 contributionsEntertainment for the whole family!Wow. So much fun. We went on a Sunday which is Family night. Had our adult children and grandchild with us. Every one had a blast. Lots of kids shouting at the wrestlers. Great seats. Order a beer and they pour 2 bottles of beer into one plastic cup. Lots of snacks being hawked in the seats. I actually had Mr. Noodles soup but with lime and salsa. Took uber there and back.Written September 23, 2024
- patriciasA7958BU0 contributionsGreat experience in Mexico CityThe tour guides were amazing! Aaron and Gabriela were outstanding, professional and very friendly, funny and super knowledgeable. The transportation was super comfortable, the buses were pretty new. Mexico is a wonderful place to visit! We did the pyramids, the Guadalupe Shrine and Garibaldi at Night plus Puebla and Cholula. Highly recommended!!!Written July 27, 2024

- NadeemN0 contributionsUnforgettable Family Fun at the Mexican Wrestling ExperienceOur family visit to the Mexican Wrestling experience was spectacular! From the timely pickup by the operator, to recommending a great foodcourt nearby for a pre-match bite, the vibrant atmosphere, colorful masks, and high-energy performances made it unforgettable. The skilled wrestlers kept us on the edge of our seats, and the whole family was captivated, cheering along with the crowd. The event was well-organized, with friendly staff and great amenities for families. The great snacks and drinks added to the festive vibe. Overall, it was a perfect blend of culture, entertainment, and family fun. We left with big smiles and wonderful memories, highly recommended!Written July 14, 2024

To reach the monarchs them return required great stamina and proper footwear. Granted we are 50 and we completed the hike but several others both older and younger could not endure it. Yes, they have the option to take a horse but that only took them halfway and none were able to successfully reach the butterflies. We spent less than 5 minutes viewing the butterflies until we hat to return as there was a constant crush of optimistic viewers. As far As the other two sites, they were very worth ones time. Buy frankly it seemed thAt most fellow travelers we too exhausted to enjoy. Know what your getting into:)

Thank you very much for your comments, they are very important to us.
Let me tell you that the weather plays a very important roll in this visit, when it is sunny, sometimes, we can meet the butterflies almost since the beginning of the walk, unfortunately, last Sunday was cloudy, they where at the top.
The places to visit are beautiful, certainly the are very worth.
Thank you again for your comments, please receive our best regards.

When is the best time of year to see the most monarchs?
Do you also offer tours to see the pyramids and whales? If so, what is cost of each?
