Travelers' reviews about Mexico

We enjoyed the sites, The first hotel was very basic but very friendly and helpful The********** hotel had very friendly staff and lovely rooms, Raul was a great guide, genuinely loved his country and interested in its history. He was very courteous, considerate and informative throughout our travels. He appeared very well read and informed on current affairs generally with a good command of English.

We liked pretty much everything about our trip itinerary, the cenotes, archeological sites, hotels, everything!

Sindy was great from start to finish and produced an excellent itinerary along the lines of what we asked for and within budget. We saw a lot of Mexico in a short period of time and would certainly consider returning to either repeat certain parts or to spend longer in some destinations. Highlight of the trip was definitely our time spent in Copper Canyon and the train journey which was spectacular

We had several 'best parts.' All the tours in Mexico City were wonderful & the order was great! We got to see part of the city right away & begin to learn our way around; then a nice mix of 2 rest days & all other tours. Every tour was well worth it! We especially loved Teotituacan. We actually could have used even more days in Cuidad de Mexico to see all the museums. Also, the last 9 days traveling from Oaxaca to Puerto Morelos was great in many ways also; but we were covering a pretty vast distance in a relatively short time & some areas deserved more time (primarily San Cristobal de Las Casas).

First, Harriett from ***, the Evanoes agency in Mexico, built a trusting relationship with me before the trip and made certain I had 24/7 access to either her cell phone or that of her colleague when we were in Mexico. I also appreciated the very complete nature of the itinerary document she complied and the supporting documents Evanoes sends along with the final itinerary to make sure you travel smart with regards to money, safety, food, healthcare, communications, etc. I loved the hotels that Harriet booked for us and the superb quality of the tour guide she selected, Elvita (who was with us for four days), and our driver (Noe, who stayed with us for two weeks). Besides making the history of Mexico come alive for us, we loved taco night with our tour guide where she introduced us to a new neighborhood and taught us about some of the finest Mezcal and culinary-worthy tacos. The second week, Noe, was our chaperone all through out the countryside and it was easy to spend so much time in his company. As a very experienced driver, he know all the destinations and was a very good driver.

Communication was great up until we arrived in Mexico

We enjoyed our adventurous itinerary created with our extremely helpful local agent, Harriet! Harriet's native language is English, but we understand she speaks Spanish as well. We loved swimming in many cenotes, taking a boat tour of Rio Lagartos to see wildlife, visiting the Cocoa Museum near Uxmal, taking a guided tour of Loltun Caves, riding bicycles around the ruins of Coba and climbing to the top of the main pyramid, snorkeling with sea turtles in Akumal, and floating down a lazy river in the Sian Ka'an Biosphere Reserve.

We loved swimming in the cenotes, eating all of the delicious Mexican food and exploring the Mayan ruins Uxmal, Chichen Itza and Ek Balam.

Simply everything. The local partner agency and especially our personal travel advisor Ivana have made a perfect job. During the organization, she found a solution to all our wishes. The hotels were chosen very carefully, all close to the attractions. All of the accommodation was special (beach bungallo, chalet in the jungle, hacienda with the inner garden ... etc).All tour guides were very kind and calm, and most of all they were careful about the exact arrival. We've got a lot of extra information about each of their cities, people, habits, and natural attractions. Ivana has escorted our journey and has always been notified in time if we had to prepare for any change or problem.

Great hotels , nice guides , everything was absolutly flawless

Overall the trip was fantastic, except for that referenced in the 'worst part' below: In particular our driver/guide, Jorge A.V, who drove us throughout our trip was exceptional. He was very informative, helpful and ensured our safety throughout our trip. He went out of his way, well beyond that normally expected, to ensure that our trip was totally enjoyable.

Being in the buzz of the streets, the colour and activity, there always seemed to be something going on - music, markets, and endless movement. The food, eating fresh tortillas was a real treat. The ruins were fascinating and the history very compelling- even just scratching the surface like this was really interesting.

The mayan food and culture, snorkeling with turtles and pick up shells with the kids!

This was a joint planning exercise between ourselves and Ivana. Took several weeks to plan but the final itinerary was fabulous. The hotels were spot on for what we needed at various stages of the trip. Guides were first class, all spoke really good English and were extremely knowledgeable. We were really well looked after. Few minor hiccups along the way, but a phone call to Ivana soon sorted everything, so no complaints there.

We had a really great time,we met our driver on the second day,& from the beginning we knew we would be in safe hands. He was really helpful,courteous & considerate. A good careful driver he was always cheerful ,well dressed & despite our lack of Spanish he made every effort to understand our needs & spoke sufficient English to make himself understood. The trip was very well organised by Ivana & we really liked most of the places we visited. All the hotels we chose were absolutely perfect for our needs, our hotel in Puebla which was outstanding in every way & highly recommended. We ate some very good food in Mexico & the whole trip exceeded our expectations.The friendliness of the Mexican people really helped us have a most enjoyable,interesting & relaxing holiday.
