It was great. Sites were beautiful. Bring swim suit if you want to swim at hieva agua. Yaris was very knowledgeable but the tour at monte alban was rushed. We weren’t anle to visit the museum. We weren’t given too much info about hierva. We had a mexican buffet for lunch. Mescal tasting was very informative. We got to taste the harshest and smoothest mezcal

Great tour.

This experience was amazing to he whole tour was great we got to experience so many things throughout the day. I will say I didn’t enjoy the buffet they have but there are other food stalls at stops before that are great. Although I didn’t like it my parents did enjoy it so I think it’s just my personal preference.

Daniel was an awesome guide!!

What an amazing experience! Daniel was professional, punctual, informative and tons of fun. He picked us up from our airbnb in a comfortable and clean suburban, plenty of room for the 7 of us. We toured Monte Alban, with details and insight from Daniel throughout the walk. Lots of steps up and down, with incredible views. The 2nd stop at Casa Ollin to learn about the multi-generational process of the artistry and craftsmanship involved in weaving was so much more than we expected, not to be missed. Then on to Hierve el Agua to see the natural pools and petrified waterfalls, spending a bit of time afterward for beverages and food. Then on to the mezcal tasting! After an informative tour to learn the lengthy process of making mezcal, we proceeded to taste, and taste, and taste some more. Throughout the day, Daniel remained fun and informative, never rushing us on to the next location. We returned after a full day, again right to our Airbnb. Overall, the tour was better than we expected. Thanks Daniel, as always, we are 'hopelessly devoted to you!' Debbie, Mary, Dena, Michelle, Scott, Dewayne and Jason

Excellent tour!

Clay drove us directly to the waterfall site. Beautiful mountains all around. The two hours he allowed there were just right amount of time to take the hike to the foot of the fall and take a dip in the pool. Then lunch at a small place close to the Falls was excellent. The weaving demo was fascinating on how they made the dyes and spun the wall and woven the rugs. On the way back, he stopped at the Tule tree on our request since we were the only two on the tour. Excellent tour.
