Hi . Overall experience was good. Team was on time to pick up and provided enough time to explore each stop and provided lot of interesting background and facts to each and every stop. However we booked this trip with all inclusive especially all entry tickets and transport . As we got into the bus , we are told that we need to pay small donation to visit El arbol de tule and then another 40 pesos each to drive last patch of Hierbe del Agua. Explaination provided is uneven road . On the contrary we see all buses , cars and trucks parked. I am less concerned on the money but more on the principles especially when trip clearly said at the time of booking and confirmation email all entrance and transport included . These surprises left bad taste to our trip experience.

Long day but an interesting set of varied experiences. Pick up was informed as 9.30 am but received a call at 9 saying that the driver is waiting outside, hurried out skipping breakfast only to stop all over town for other pickups and to be brought to the centre, finally starting only after 10 am. The guide spoke lot of spanish but gave rather shortened explanations in not so great English. The return was told as 5-6 pm put turned out to be 7.30. Besides these logistics, the day was otherwise alright. The mezcal tasting was good. The weaving demonstration at Teotitlan was good as well. Mitla was ok. Hierve del Agua was great but the guide had no clue of the walking route, we figured it out ourselves. The lunch stop is a buffet only place but there was a reasonable selection for vegetarians too.

First of all very good service. Everyone was very polite and helpful(driver & tour guide). The most interesting visit is the one on zapotecas' village where they show you, while giving useful details, how the make products like carpets and clothes etc. in a traditional way. They also sell in very good prices.
