Fun day, great experience.

Published on Sep, 2023

The tour was amazing. Pedro is an excellent, knowledgeable guide. He explained the archaeological site expertly and answered any questions I had. The trip was conducted in a comfortable, air conditioned vehicle which was a blessing due to the extreme heat and humidity. I would highly recommend this tour.

Great tour to Xihuacan

Published on Mar, 2023

We did this tour with Francisco and lucky us! He was an informative guide who knew an incredible amount about the archeological site and the local village life and attempted to answer all of our questions. His sense of humour and excellent English were greatly appreciated. Not only did we enjoy the site, but found the visit to the small local village a wonderful addition to our tour. Lunch was very good and served at a typical Mexican roadside restaurant. Our van was new, spacious and air conditioned. Pick up/drop off was effortless. I would highly recommend Francisco and the company.

The first of what will definitely be several trips with Luis!

Fabulous tour! Luis is obviously so proud of his culture - it was a great time. Can't wait to do the monarch butterfly trip and Dios de Los Muertos!

Exceptional With Luis!

Published on Sep, 2021

We did the private tour with Luis de la Maza to “La Chole” (Xihuacan archaeological site). His extensive knowledge, which comes from a lifetime and generational living in the area, provided an extraordinarily authentic experience. We were thrilled and pleasantly surprised with his service. You will not be disappointed!
