Fantastic!

Published on Apr, 2024

The church was beautiful and we learned an enormous amount about the pyramid and early days of cholula. Absolutely fantastic tour by Ariel and Andy.

All in one Puebla tour!

Published on Jan, 2024

If you want to see all the major sites in Puebla in one day, this is the tour for you. Our tour guide Damian was very friendly and knowledgeable. We were lucky enough to be the only ones on the tour that day so we really got the full experience. We started the tour visiting the Great Pyramid of Cholula. Keep in mind, you don’t really see the pyramid because it’s now covered but you will see parts of the pyramid and the church that’s built at the very top which is absolutely breathtaking! In order to get to the church you do have to walk up a steep hill/stairs. There are no elevators so just something to consider.

AMAZING experience!!!

Published on Jul, 2021

This is an amazing tour! I was only able to see Puebla and Cholula for one day and this was the best way to see all of the sights! Ariel and Julie, my tour guides, were so helpful, friendly, and informative. I would recommend this tour to anyone!
