5.00Luis took us on a private tour of Hierve de Agua. The site itself is stunning. But Luis also gave us a nice explanation of the historical and geological significance of the area. While on the trip, we also saw the world's largest ( in circumference) tree, a hieroglyph visible from the highway, and a textile studio. We also had time for shopping. Since we were a small party, Luis was happy to adjust the agenda to meet our needs. Overall, a 5 star excursion.
