  • Great Tour with Pablo

    We had a wonderful private tour of Xihuacan with Pablo. He picked us up at our hotel, took us to the museum, various ruin sites to include ball court and main area. Pablo pointed out calendar, astrology and sacrificial areas among other things always tying everything in from museum. We were also very fortunate to run into the young man who started collecting artifacts as a child, which many are now in the museum. Seeing the town/house where the artifacts were kept as well as the church where another artifact exists was also interesting to include their history. Pablo was very knowledgeable throughout. Our lunch was also magnificent. Would definitely recommend this tour.

    Our tour guide was Francisco and he was exceptional. Very knowledgeable of the area and ruins, excellent English, and very timely. We have toured four different archeological sites in Mexico and this was one of our favorites thanks to Francisco.

  • Fun day, great experience.

    The tour was amazing. Pedro is an excellent, knowledgeable guide. He explained the archaeological site expertly and answered any questions I had. The trip was conducted in a comfortable, air conditioned vehicle which was a blessing due to the extreme heat and humidity. I would highly recommend this tour.

    We did this tour with Francisco and lucky us! He was an informative guide who knew an incredible amount about the archeological site and the local village life and attempted to answer all of our questions. His sense of humour and excellent English were greatly appreciated. Not only did we enjoy the site, but found the visit to the small local village a wonderful addition to our tour. Lunch was very good and served at a typical Mexican roadside restaurant. Our van was new, spacious and air conditioned. Pick up/drop off was effortless. I would highly recommend Francisco and the company.

  • The first of what will definitely be several trips with Luis!

    We did the private tour with Luis de la Maza to “La Chole” (Xihuacan archaeological site). His extensive knowledge, which comes from a lifetime and generational living in the area, provided an extraordinarily authentic experience. We were thrilled and pleasantly surprised with his service. You will not be disappointed!
