Mexico City Tours in Spring

If I could relive it again, I would. The tour gave me a perfect taste of Mexico, and increased my travelling confidence to the point I would be willing to return by myself. I made exceptional friends on this tour, many of whom I have remained in contact with and intend to visit in their respective countries. The convenience of having all of the admin pre-organised for you is such a luxury, and I will definitely look to do another G-Adventures tour in the future.

What a trip!! This trip had a great balance of fun and culture but was made perfect by having , the most amazing trip manager. went above and beyond to give us all the local knowledge at each stop and made sure to even book the best bars for the whole group even on our free days. If I could add anything to the trip it would be more options for free time add ons in the later stops.

This is a tour of archeological sites mixed with typical mexican dishes and exploration of Mexican Landscapes and sometimes even birdlife. We began in Mexico City - where I would recommend to arrive 1-2 days early Try to book tickets for night performance at Palacio de Bellas artes & if you like Frida Kahlo. Coyoacan itself was very turisty - too crowded (did not like that so much). We loved the new feature -the excellent Jamaica Market in Mexico City - which is an amazing food- flower - fruit market. Some of the rides between Mexico City- Puebla-Oaxaca- Chiapas- San Cristobal-Palenque-Campeche and Merida can be rather long - around 5-6 hours in a bumby buss, so although the pace is moderate be aware that you are driving long distances. We loved Puebla - an old colonial spanish city, Oaxaca - nice colorfull - the sumidiero canyon (amazing boat ride along grand canyon like landscape). Of course the archeological sites are great and impressive (I liked Palenque). The food is a majority of meat but you do get to sample a lot of different foods - fruit & fish included, some I liked and some were not to my taste (but all good quality). The cooking class was great. The good part is that all breakfast is included and some of the lunches or diners too. Don't expect much of the swimming pools - they are rather small. The last day we went to swim in a cenote - which was awesome - a sort of sinkhole. Our tourleader gave us detailed explanations about archeology - he has a university degree in this. The advantage of this tour is that you get to stay in some places for 2-3 nights so this makes the tour more relaxing than others. There are no beach opportunities, unless you go the last days to Cancun. I would definately recommend this tour as I think the combination of food - markets and archeology is more varied and offers a more interesting perspective than only the archeology.

My G-Adventures group trip in Mexico was truly unforgettable. I had the time of my life, visiting some of the most beautiful places in the country. I met amazing people, some of whom became real friends. The food was not only delicious but also a highlight of the trip. Overall, it was an incredible experience that I will surely never forget!

I had an amazing time on this trip! G Adventures continues to impress me, and I’ll keep recommending them to all my friends. I did the Merida to Yucatan tour back in 2023, and after just completing the Mexico City to Puerto Escondido leg, I honestly wish I had enough time off to do the entire route in one go. This tour is such a unique blend of adventure, relaxation, culture, and beauty, all at a very fair price! Even though I came home with a staph infection (worth it!), the experience was so much fun that I can’t complain. The memories, the people, and the adventures far outweighed any downsides. Can’t wait to plan the next one!

This was a fun, immersive week where I really felt like I got a local view on each of the places we visited. Oaxaca was incredible, from the biking and weaving excursions to the beautiful petrified waterfall in the mountains and incredible food . Puebla and CDMX were also amazing, with fun activities each day and a lot more hustle and bustle. Overall I would definitely recommend this trip to anyone looking for an adventure that gives you a sense of how amazing Mexico is!
