Good small group tour - I went in the company of my mother; very good experience, we liked the dynamics of our guide Hector, he has reference images that helped a lot to understand and imagine what Teotihuacán and Tula are believed to be like. We also thank our driver Alberto, who was leading us on the right path. We loved the 3 points, Teotihuacán, Tula and Tepotzotlán.

Muchos Gracias to our guide Cristian - My wife and I greatly enjoyed our April 15'th trip, which was a 12 hour and a 265 km round trip in an air-conditioned van. Thank you to our driver Carlos for negotiating the highways around this triangular loop route. Our day was hot and hazy ... this didn't stop us from climbing many steps up and down the archeological sites that we visited. Thank you Cristian for your excellent help and your knowledge of pre -Hispanic/ pre Columbian Mexican history 🇲🇽🙂 and of Mexican history since then. Geoff Chiddell, April 16, 2024

Great, Long tour. A must - My girlfriend and I had an amazing time. Cristian, our tour guide, was great, very friendly and knowledgeable. We learned so much. Seeing Tula and Teotihuacan was a must. I didn't know about Tepotzotlan but it was a great visit as well. It was definitely a long tour. I think we walked about 14 miles. So be prepared for that.

Great Experience! - The trip was amazing and very enjoyable if a bit rushed. Our guide Alexa could not have been more informative and helpful. She was able to provide historical context to each location in both English and Spanish. The first stop was Teotihuacan. What more is there to say about this magical place? It's a true wonder of the world, and never fails to impress. We got there fairly early and were able to dodge all the giant incoming crowds. Next was a visit to a mezcal "tasting tour" (you get 3 samples) and obsidian workshop, which honestly felt more like a long sales pitch. This was the one part of the trip I could have done without. Next, we went to a fairly-priced and incredibly tasty restaurant for lunch. Tula was another amazing historical site. It's not as impressive as Teotihuacan but it's underrated and well worth visiting. You can actual climb this pyramid! The last stop was Tepotzotlan. The town is incredibly charming and beautiful but I wish we had more time to walk around. The famous church was closed on Monday so we couldn't go inside. We only spent a few minutes walking around the town square and then quickly grab lunch. All in all, it didn't seem worth traveling the long distance to only spend an hour and a half there. If I could revise the itinerary, I would eliminate the workshop and give the additional time to Tepoztlan. Nonetheless, Alexa was great as well as our driver Fernando. Would definitely recommend. Bring some good walking shoes!!

Bad allocation of time - The pyramids and Tula ruins were extraordinary but we did not have enough time at each, instead the tour was filled with fluff like a tequila tasting and visit to a random town.
