I had recently completed the Viva Mexico tour that departed on 20th July and was led by the awesome Vitor. The tour was awesome from day 1 and well organized and run with the perfect mix of culture and relax time. The group was great and I was fully able to enjoy my time in Mexico.

I’m not a big ‘foodie’ but my partner is, so I was expecting to just tag along for the ride. However, I absolutely loved this trip. It had the perfect mix of relaxation, food tasting, adventure, independent exploration and educational visits. We visited a few weeks before Día de Muertos and each place was busy putting up decorations and preparing for the celebration. I’m glad we got to see these. As a wildlife lover, the speed boat trip through the Sumidero Canyon was a highlight for me. And we were pleased we opted to go on the Mount Alban trip as we had the whole site to ourselves for a while! Luis our guide, was friendly, funny and very knowledgeable. He went out of his way to make the trip memorable for each person and we were very well looked after. There were a couple of long drives, but our minibus had reclining seats, USB charging ports on seat backs and we stopped frequently for comfort breaks. The scenery along the way was incredible and the journeys flew by!

The trip was amazing from the get go. It was so well organised and easy as a traveller to do as much or as little as you wanted. was super knowledgable about everywhere we visited and you could especially passionate about giving us the best recommendations for what we wanted, even going out to his way to show us some of his personal favourites in his free time. There was so much packed into the trip even on travel days having the opportunity to stop at unique smaller towns and sights we might have missed otherwise. Would 100% recommend to anyone.

We enjoyed our recent highlights tour of Mexico. There was lots to see and explore. We thought the ancient sites were magnificent. However, we recommend that people arrive in Mexico city a couple of days beforehand to acclimatise and really explore this magnificent city and its museums. In Particular the Anthropology museum. We really enjoyed the mountainous regions, and the indigenous areas were just so interesting. The towns and cities of San Christobal De las casas, Campeche and Merida were splendid and worth staying for longer and really getting to know. Playa del Carmen at the end of the trip was a huge disappointment. It's not worth the effort and is a little tacky.
