Mexico Eco Tours and Trips

This was my first Explore trip, my first holiday in Mexico, and my first organised cycling holiday. It was fantastic. We had a great group of people and our local leader & driver were excellent. So many highlights, I wish the holiday had lasted longer. We visited places that I wouldn't have seen if I'd organised the holiday myself. The busy schedule was so well organised by the Explore team that I didn't have to worry about the details and I could just enjoy myself. I want to go back asap!

A wonderful place to go and a full itinerary made sure we saw the best of it. Explore made sure everything went well, and I would have no hesitation in using them again. A top trip.

This trip is 2 weeks full of interesting history, places, culture and food. The perfect way to experience Mexico and all that it has to offer; from the city, to the jungle, to the beach, to the colonial towns and everything in between!

This was a wonderful trip with a varied itinerary and a delightful group of travelers. The bus was a bit crowded and hot making some of the very long travel days a bit uncomfortable. Some buses had a few seatbelts, others NONE. Our guide, Joshua, was excellent: always in good spirits, very knowledgeable and a good administrator. My only recommendation would be for him to break up some of those long travel days with more commentary on the bus. I'm sure I will not be alone in mentioning the border crossing at Puerto Fronterizo Subteniente Lopez on 11/24. We were denied entry for almost two hours. Essentially they are trying to keep tourists from crossing there to reduce their workload. (We observed maybe 2 people crossing the border over a two hour period.)They did not even allow us to sit in the empty chairs...Joshua held his ground and performed beautifully to get us into Mexico. Loved the archeological sites...loved the cenotes! I'll be back on another Explore trip soon!

I had a fantastic time on this trip. The itinerary was well-planned and the locations were stunning. A special mention to our tour leader, who was excellent; very approachable and professional. He really helped the group bond and made the experience seamless

The trip was as described in the brochure and was an excellent introduction to the food of Mexico and some of the archaeological sites. The guide Yves was extremely knowledgeable and a great story teller. His local knowledge was invaluable in spotting opportunities as they arose, and also in solving any difficulties. We were a group of 15 with a driver and a guide and were originally put in an 18 seater minibus. As some of the driving days were many hours long, we requested a larger and more comfortable bus and this was arranged. As some of the trips turned out to be even longer than planned, due to roadworks and unavoidable detours, this was an essential upgrade. One of the hotels, rated as premium, had, unbeknownst to either Explore or the local tour operator, had moved us to a much more basic accommodation. It was disappointing but Explore dealt with it in a very timely manner by refunding the cost of the two nights. Mistakes do happen but dealing with them is the mark of a good company. The group was mixed with some couples and some singles. I travelled on my own but there was always company for meals if I wanted it.
