Wonderful Experience at Monte Alban

Published on Apr, 2024

Comfortable ride to Monte Alban and back. Our guide was great! His knowledge and the way he shared it with the group made Monte Alban come to life. This was my second tour to this special place and it was much more informative than the first one. I highly recommend this experience.

Our guide was very knowledgeable, perfect time allowed for monte Alban. Some time with the guide and time to explore on our own. The stops to the small towns were my favorite, to see the artisans who make the alebrijes, embroidery, and pottery was amazing to see and happy to support small business.
