This trip was everything I hoped it would be. Our transportation, guided tour, lunch was one of the highlights of our trip. Tour guides very knowledgable about the site, the civilization, their religious practices/beliefs. They took good care of us. I booked the trip knowing the physical efforts that would be involved. They were very patient with me and even helped me with the trail walk and stairs where necessary. The traditional Mexican lunch was excellent. It was time well spent! Oh and the guide spoke wonderful English which I cannot say for the remainder of our stay. A huge thank you for the wonder time!!!

Visiting the ruins was a fantastic experience in my trip to Acapulco. My guide Jose was very knowledgeable of the region and explained some on the way to the site. At the site, we met up with the former owner Señor Poli, and he explained everything in great detail. I learned so much. The ruins were great to see, but also the surrounding mountains and forest.

Tour by Van is by far the best tour experience we’ve ever had as a family of four with two young teens. Rudy sent Jose Mario who gave us a private tour of Acapulco which included the Chapel at the top of the mountain, Cliff diving and provided detailed history of Mexico dating back over 1400 years. He is a wealth of knowledge and the kindest person you could ever meet. Our 2nd tour was a local Wrestling (Lucha Libre) event that took place at night, it was super entertaining and safe! Our 3rd was an archaeological tour which took place one hour from Acapulco. Again, Rich is history and majestic scenery of Tehuacalco. Lunch was fresher than any restaurant could offer. We learned more about Mexico on this trip than any other trip combined. I, personally have been to Mexico 5 times, to five different locations. Not only was it informative, it was emotional. I strongly recommend Rudy’s Tour by Van and Jose Mario as a Guide. They will always be our friends in Mexico.

Highly recommend this tour for history, archeology buffs, and others interested in ancient cultures. Rudy and Mario picked us up right on time at our hotel. We were driven through the Sierra Madre, through villages and a variety of farms. Senor Pauli the original owner of the land, gave us a great tour (translation by Mario). Pauli’s story and the history of the ruins is fascinating. Not as extensive as say Machu Pichu but amazingly large for something so recently “discovered”. Very well maintained. Wonderful lunch at a local restaurant and a nice drive back to our hotel. See it before it gets crowded.

We had an excellent tour, our driver Mario was very friendly and knowledgeable. We enjoyed great local food and got to try Mezcal at Senior Paulie's farm, we learned a lot about the area. Would highly recommend.

Our guides where friendly and very knowledgeable of the site and Guerrero in general. The taxi was very clean and cool and the drive was as beautiful and educational as the archeological site itself. My partner and I were honoured to learn from Pollo himself, despite the language barrier we learned so much about the history of the Yopi and the site. Our guides generously took lots of photos for us and allowed us to take breaks in the shade as needed (bring plenty of water, sunscreen and a hat as it was 37 degrees there). I would highly highly recommend this trip to anyone interested in archeology or Indigenous history, the private tour is especially worth the money. Our guides also offered us a discount on a variety of other tours in Acapulco, so I recommend this tour in the beginning of your trip.

Our guides were awesome and personable, with tons of knowledge of not only the site but Mexico and Guerrero in general. One of the most beautiful drives I’ve ever been on. Our guides took us to the home of the gentleman who used to own the land the site is on and we ate wonderfully fresh fruit and he joined us on our tour. It was the highlight of our trip to Acapulco and I’d recommend it to anyone who comes here!

I’ve been quite happy to discover this archeological site situated only one hour and a half from Acapulco with such knowledgeable and king guides. Me and my friend are fond of history and the local guide Policarpo could answer all our questions about Tehuacalco. Moreover, the company’s guide, Jose Maria, did the translation in French so we could understand completely the comments. We found the driver and the two guides very professional, efficient and helpful. We strongly recommend that tour!/ we were very happy to discover this archaeological site located only an hour and a half from Acapulco in the company of erudite and very kind guides. My friend and I really like the story and the local guide, Policarpo, was able to answer all our questions about Tehuacalco. In addition, the company’s guide, José Maria, translated the comments into French. We found the driver and the two guides to be very professional, punctual and efficient. We highly recommend this tour!
