I had a great time at Huaxteca, 2 days of tours and our guides Antonio and Alejandro were Fantastic! Lets not forget our drivers as well Jose and Cesar. This was magical experience for me, I am ready to go back and experience new places.

Great tour and place!

I went to La Huasteca Potosina with my 2 best friends, during 4 days we enjoyed the magical places the staff showed us. By the way, what a great team of people! Super capable and organized, punctual and responsible. That was such a great experience! Would totally go back.

A great day with a great guide

We had a great trip with Huaxteca to the Surelistic Garden. Many thanks to our guide Valeria Animas. Since we hardly speak Spanish she led us great in English and explained many things to us. It was very entertaining, instructive and funny! We would always book again with Huaxteca and can recommend the whole team! See you soon!

Great Tour and guide

Published on Jun, 2019

The guide Josue came to pick us up on time. Great start on our way to Edward James garden, we had homemade coffee and traditional sweet bread. On our way there Josue gave us a run down of the tour what to expect, tips, accident insurance information. Also gave us the highlights of the creator of the surrealists garden Edward James, all very interesting! When done we headed to town of Xilitla for a good lunch and half hour of free time, here we went for a walk to the plaza and visited the Leonora Carrington museum, small but well taken care of and many sculptures and paintings. Then we headed to the macaws nest, the trek there is down, Plato, then up again, grueling but well worth it to see the macaws going down to the abyss. It was a long day but we truly enjoyed it! All around, the guide and service was excellent.
