What people are saying about Puebla

We had a nice view from La Izta on El Popo. Going up to about 4,500 m above sea level was a great experience. It took us 4 hours to hike 500 m in altitude. The guide Juan Pablo was super experienced and always friendly. He told me a lot of background information about the mountains and the society in Cholula. The driver Eduardo did a great job and brought us safely across the bumpy streets.

We had a wonderful 1/2 day with Ariel, who picked us up from our hotel in Puebla and shared the sites of Cholula with us. His English was quite good, and he told us much history and culture in an understandable manner. He even managed my request for finding a local macha salsa, by stopping at a local vendor. A really nice, educational and meaningful tour. I highly recommend this company.

Excellent experience, our guides treated us the best, unfortunately due to the pandemic they touched us some closed places but they did the best they could with what they had and it turned out very well, Highly recommended and grateful to our guides Ariel and Yuli, greetings !! !
