Our trip to Real de Monte was cancelled so we were put on the Taxco trip instead. It was a bit confusing trying to confirm the details and we are still waiting for a partial refund, but the Taxco trip was good. Guerson, our guide, was wonderful and very knowledgeable.

our guide, Alma, is a very capable bilingual lady who pays attention to everyone in the group. She is very well-versed in her knowledge of all the places we go to and gives everyone substantial free time to roam on our own while balancing it well with the time taken to explain and teach us about the places we visit. :)

Went on this tour in Feb 2017. An Amigo Tours bus brought us from Zona Rosa to Centro Historico, where we boarded the actual tour bus. We had to spent 20 min at Centro Historico, waiting for other connecting buses to arrive. First we visited the English cemetery: the local guide there spoke only Spanish, but our bus guide acted as an translator. Next we drove to the Real del Monte main square, where we explored the local church, shops and restaurants. Our next stop was Prismas Basalticos: the waterfalls there are a little crowded in the afternoon, but worth a visit nonetheless. Afterwards, we went on a guided tour of the San Miguel Regla Hacienda, a historic estate, a part of which has now been converted into a hotel. The last stop was the Huasca de Ocampo market, which has many nice shops and restaurants. Our return to Mexico City was delayed by a road closure, but the considerate guide dropped us very close to our hotels, instead of leaving us at the pick-up point.
