The tour was informative and the places were amazing. Just take note that when you are on a tour like this you are on limited time, we wanted to stay @ Hierve el Agua longer ): also it will take all day so take a few snacks/water.

Enjoy a Private Tour with family or friends; ideal for groups of 4 to 19 people. Fall in love with incredible landscapes and take the ideal photo with plenty of time and without haste. Make a visit at your own pace with extended time if you wish, without depending on the itinerary of a mass group. During this Private Tour you will be accompanied by a guide and driver in a modern Mercedes Benz Sprinter vehicle. In addition, if you are Mexican, you can take advantage of the discounts for nationals at each site (only if applicable) such as student discount or free entry on Sundays. We will pass by you to your hotel to visit the most emblematic places of this route such as the Archaeological Zone of Monte Albán, Arrazola (craft town where they create Alebrijes), the Ex-Convent of Cuilapan de Guerrero, Zaachila (indigenous village with multiple restaurants of typical food) and San Bartolo Coyotepec (creators of the Black Clay) to finally return to their hotel.

This was the tour of a lifetime. Our guide, Victor shared the history which was amazing. Visiting all of the artisans and watching them work was so very interesting. We were a group of 13 with 2 children and loved every minute. I would highly recommend this tour.

Notified me about the hierve el agua being closed and substituted a mezcal tour, but didn't say anything about el tule being closed also until he was asked during the tour. Probably spent 2 hours at gift shops because there's nothing to do. I felt I was tricked into this tour. Tour guide had very poor English, he would spend 5 mins talking about something in spanish then speak English for 20 secs. Terrible experience.

I would definitely recommend this if you want to check off a bunch of boxes in one day. This tour includes: Tule Tree, Mezcaleria, Teotitlan weaver's, Mitla ruins, and Hierve El Agua. They are relatively quick stops (except for Teotitlan and Hierve El Agua) but each had sufficient time to see what was there. The guide gave us information at each place, except for Hierve El Agua, which I would have liked to know more about, so I guess I'll just read about it online. Lunch was good and the driver was very good.

A very professionally organised tour with a very knowledgeable guide. I learnt a lot during the day about the history of Mexico along with the culture and regional industry. I highly recommend the tour if you are interested in getting a deeper understanding of how the country developed.
