An incredible trip, especially if you like to know but also do different activities. The tour was for a small group, but that helped to make the attention more personalized and easy to modify some things about the tour and times. The guide was very attentive throughout the trip, he explained to us what we would do and how, as well as recommending certain things. Our trip was made up of 4 people, including me and a friend, and he was always on the lookout for us. In the end he took us to where we were staying even though it was not stipulated. If you are thinking between the tour to Chapala or this one, I would suggest Mazamitla, you will fall in love and you will have more options to do if you like adventure.

This was such a great trip! I booked it at the last minute not knowing what to expect. It was so well organized that we covered all the high points and had the luxury of some free time to explore on our own. Our guide was so helpful and knowledgeable and just a nice person to be with. It was one of the best tours I've been on.

A unique trip, a wonderful place and the agency with all the seriousness and formality with which we agreed, Carmen and Edgar more than excellent service. Highly recommended. Infinite thanks.!!!!!
