This was a favorite for the family.

Great location, good support from staff.

Good restuarant, Waking to the howler monkeys was exciting. Nice grounds.

Incredible that it is in the city next to airport, highways, etc. Had a country feel. Only problem was that they could not easily use the 4 confirmation numbers in our kimkim trip plan to register. There was confusion that was cleared upon a call to Lizbeth, I think.

Very comfortable. Great base for our trips.

Quaint and in the center of shopping, restuarants. Breakfast very good

cool boat trip welcomed, and fast on the return.

zip line was worth it. but their not taking credit card was combersome.

This was outstanding for cultural exposure. Visit to Maria's home/ workplace/milpa was special. The authentic lunch was very interesting and well done. Her textiles and demo were excellent. The visit to the church with prayerrs and chickens was most revealing and interesting. Very culturally real and revealing. Hector was particularly good at describing the details and richness of this tour.

We chose to miss Misol-ha to have more time to swim at Agua Azul. The detour due to the protest took more time, but it allowed us to see the agricultural aspects of the area more, so i considered this to be a plus.

Very interesting and Hector was expert in his descriptions of the details. The short walk through the jungle was not that useful on a very hot day, because there were no animals to be seen. Better to get to the hotel in the jungle where we saw/heard the howler monkeys, a large parrot, and some other criter.

Those of us that walked to, and visited this feature were quite happy with it. Others of us went to the Capultepec Zoo. This was quite good, not crouded. As hoped we saw some animals unique to the reigon. I think Mildred would have been a better guide for the Anthropology museum and Castle, but we wanted a site where the kids could run and be entertained. The zoo worked for this. Again, Mildred did fine and was very accomodating to our last minute change of plans.

Unfortunately we did not see this so as to accomodate the needs/interests of the 3 children in out group.

The hotel is one of the oldest hotels in the area. Very well located because you can walk to a beautiful park in the back and also to La Venta. The pool area is wonderful but the food for breakfast café is not up to par. The rooms are old and terrible lighting in the bathrooms. They are working with some of the rooms but basically they are not doing a good remodel they’re just painting. It’s as clean as it can be, but I was not impressed by anything. My room unfortunately was in the back and there was some kind of event the first night that kept going till three in the morning. The band was playing people screaming and yelling, so that was a bad night in itself. Would I go back to it , maybe but it wouldn’t be my first choice. I chose this hotel. It has nothing to do with Kim Kim. I don’t think their advertisement is truly honest.

An exquisite place to be. Right in the middle of the jungle. They only serve breakfast, which is kind of a downside because everything else is not a walking distance. But the place is wonderfully decorated super comfortable and just very unique.. I will definitely go back to it.

I chose Guayaba Inn as well. The surroundings are magnificent, beautifully decorated rooms are immaculately, clean and super comfortable. They do have TV and a bar. One of my favorites.

If you want to stay a few blocks away from Zocalo and the excitement of the city. This is a place to go. I did not like the fact that it’s in a pedestrian area so cars cannot come in and if you have suitcases and things like that, it makes it very difficult for the drivers to park the cars a block around and try to help you. I tend to like hotels that have patios and gardens. This one is an old Casona which does have an atrium, but does not have any green areas. Regardless, it is extremely clean comfortable very spacious and wonderful lighting in every room. I still would recommend it. I’m just picky about having green areas and feeling like I can be outdoors when I come to the hotel in the afternoons to take a break.

It was a unique set up with a novel toilet arrangement tat may not be suitable for everyone but was clean and centrally located which was nice. Hosts were friendly, I like that we connected by WhatsApp so they were available quickly for any questions, issue.

Really likel this, didn’t know about this aspect of Oaxaca .

I love learning about ancient history of areas, this was very interesting, a lot of time allowed to explore.

I didn’t know about any of these areas so I like learning about them.

Didn’t happen, mixup in depart times, not a problem, got refunded.

Excellent staff. Clean rooms. Great location. Yummy breakfast. They even packed us a fruit salad for our departure day when we left earlier than the buffet breakfast opened. Highly recommend.

Great location for walking around Puebla. Such a cute street that a car commercial was being filmed there one day! Good breakfast, cute vibe. Very clean. The upstairs area has some spacious seating areas with nice rugs that I was able to use to get my workouts in each day. Highly recommend.

Very cute hotel focused on sustainability and being kind to our planet. Plants everywhere, a small pond with swinging seats around it was so peaceful. Roof top terrace was a quiet space to hang out and I was able to use it to get my workouts in each day. Don't be scared of the dry toilets, they really do work! Even my mom and me, age 80 and 50, had no problems-I guess you can teach old dogs new tricks. There a kitchen open for use. Make your own coffee etc. The staff were super helpful. They called us taxis when needed, even to pick us up at a restaurant and bring us back to the hotel. Highly recommend.

This was described in my itinerary as a "gastronomic experience". I didn't really know what that meant, but I like food, so I figured it would be good. It is actually a cooking class where your group can be interactive in helping prepare the meal. The chef was great and the food turned out delicious! He is also the owner of the coffee shop next door and gave a some tastings, history and education about Mexican coffee. He is so proud of Mexico and it made our experience really great.

Our guide was great! He used to be a Lucha Libre wrestler and knows so much about the sport. He made our walk fun and engaging. I wasn't too sure about this one because I am not that into wrestling, but after reading a few reviews, I decided it sounded pretty fun. It was so fun and funny and great. Our group was small, 7 people, and we all had fun together wandering the neighborhood, tasting the mezcal, and cheering for the wrestlers. This is a great tour; you should go even if you think you don't want to!

Our guide was amazing! Born in Mexico, lived in Chicago, moved back to Mexico. Thus excellent English and Spanish. She adapted to our pace very well. Was very kind to all the vendors in the market. Showed us foods we had never tried before and really like. Explained how the market works, how to purchase, how to turn it into a meal. We also went to a restaurant that uses the local corn to make all their dishes and drinks. We tried our hand at making tortillas and tried some of their ice cream. It was a fun day. Our driver was also amazing. He kept in touch with us via text to make sure we had everything we needed. He was super kind and gave us a safe ride and was fun and chatty along the way.

Our guide for Monte Alban was excellent. Very knowledgeable about he history of the inhabitants. Carefully explained some complicated astronomy. Was super kind and helpful. Our driver was also awesome. We had a great bufffet lunch with so many food options. The experiences at the pottery place and the artistic painted animal place were not super salesy which I liked. We were able to see the wares, learn about the process, but then weren't pressured to buy anything. The people were helpful with our purchases, don't get me wrong, but they managed to do that without being annoying. I like that much better than the higher pressure sales tactics you get some places. Both locations packed up people's souvenirs very carefully so they could travel.

Exceptional in value and service.

We loved its authenticity, staff and character. Only drawback, was not knowing in advance they do not take credit cards. This was a problem when we all needed to pay our room bills for dinners, drinks etc. I would advise visitors to BRING CASH.

Wonderful staff, setting and rooms. Thank you.

We did not do the biking. It, strangely, never was offered. However, we got a wonderful guide and tour and was a great day. Teotihuacan is amazing and a must for anyone visiting Mexico.

The best. The best because we arrived at park opening, and nearly the first ones up the mountain, via horse. It was a quiet, almost5 spiritual experience. I am sure it was not later in the day as more holiday tourists arrived. I highly recommend Jesus the guide.
