I wasn’t sure what to expect when I booked a tour with Vibe Adventures because the company was relatively new, but wow, it exceeded my expectations in every way. Alex planned an eight-day itinerary that went from Mexico City to the beautiful state of Michoacan. Alex, myself and another tour guide, Nayeli, enjoyed our share of adventures — horseback riding, hiking to a volcano, ziplining over a lake and sampling exotic foods — but Alex and Nayeli also taught me about Mexican culture and history, and introduced me to many authentic experiences, like speaking with the Purepecha people, an indigenous group in Michoacan. My tour guides were also flexible with the schedule, giving me options between different activities. Despite my lack of Spanish vocabulary, the Vibe Adventures crew helped translate conversations and proved that humor and compassion transcend beyond cultural and geographic boundaries. Without the knowledge of Alex and Nayeli and without their enthusiasm, I would not have had such an amazing and memorable trip. I would recommend Vibe Adventures to anyone seeking a unique, fun and educational travel experience.
