My tour of La Huasteca with Polo was amazing. The place is magical with spectacular views and incredible energy. Polo was a wonderful guide. He came and picked me up at my AirBnb, and the whole tour was persoanlized. He is very friendly and knowledgeable and is a great conversationalist. I learned so much. I was so excited when I realized we were going to visit the Center of the Universe. The energy of the space was sacred and potent. We wound up extending the tour and Polo took me to some great places in downtown Monterrey where we had a great meal. He really knows the area and it's history, and will personalize things to give you exactly what you're looking for. I had an amazing time. I hope to be back to Monterrey to explore some more!

Sandra was lovely to deal with and she introduced us to our guide (Johnny Bravo) as she was unavailable that day. We did it with just 4 of us and the timing was completely up to us (ie. More snorkel time etc). This was my favorite excursion to date - Johnny was knowledgeable, fun and entertaining. No loud music, booze etc. Like the party boats! Very easy 20 min hike (horses were available) to beautiful waterfall in Quimixto. Had a nice lunch on the beach and snorkled a 2nd time heading back to PV. Excursion was about 9:00 - 3:30 pm. Next time I want to bus to Boca Tomatlan and then hike ( 2 hrs each way mountain/coast) to Quimixto. Anyways, strongly recommend Sandra and Johnny. Bruce
