Posada de las Flores Loreto

The visit to Calakmul which was hard work but the reward of climbing the pyramids and seeing the jungle stretching in all directions will stay in the memory.  This was followed the next day by a wonderful, and unexpected, half day at Laguna Bacular.  We thought we were only going to be driving through on our way to Tulum.  However we were treated to an extensive tour of the fortress there followed by a superb boat trip on the lagoon.  It was the icing on the cake to a wonderful two days, with an excellent guide (Luis Alberto) and driver (Ivan).

KFD, London

AHC, Blaydon-on-tyne

Highlights: Discovering and enjoying the Mexican culture and despite pre visit warnings, being so surprised that Mexico City is nothing like as dangerous a place to visit as I had expected.

Cw, Macclesfield

Most memorable aspect: “All the visits to temples and pyramids. With very knowledgeable and extremely pleasant guides

JB Wandsworth

All of the tour guide experiences were memorable and we loved Mexico city. There was so much to see and do in such a short week. I would love to do it again, but over a two week period and over the winter months. 

JR, Castle Douglas

Perfect holiday!

“My sister summed it up by saying that there was nothing that she would have changed, the holiday was perfect. Mexico was a delight, we had never been before, the people sincerely friendly and helpful, the service as great but everything exceeded expectations. My sister and the children thought that the cenotes were amazing as they were such a surprise but we loved it all.”

RN, Ascot

Highlights?: Too many! Probably seeing Uxmal, the Tiger Egret, swimming in Cenotes (various), Chichen-Itza at dawn and visiting Frida Kahlo's house.

AA, Newport

Highlights?: Tours of Mexico City & Chichen Itza, followed by our stay at Tulum.

ER, Surbiton

Loved it!

"Most memorable aspects were all the archaeological sites, which we enjoyed immensely. On the whole, we found local people very kind and helpful."

DC, Nottingham

"Many highlights: The views at Uxmal. Waking up with a view of the observatory at Chichen Itza from our hotel bed. The excellent guides. The friendliness of the staff (and impromptu language lessons) at Petit Lafitte."

TR, Farnham

Most memorable experience: Going by fast boat on Usumcinta river to Yaxchilan where howler monkeys and a deserted site made an unforgettable impression. I could go on and on – it was all memorable!

PH Victoria

Most memorable aspect: “The view from Monte Alban across Oaxaca and the valleys around. Eating in Cafe Tacuba in Mexico City with a troop of troubadours playing would come a close second, followed by the flight to Huatulco when we flew all along the coast before landing, courtesy of a local businessman who was playing host to an American novelist. Xochimilco was also memorable and fun.

JB, Dublin

Most memorable experiences: "Visiting our parents' house in Lomas de Chapultepec. Francisco persuaded the owners that we were genuine, which was quite an achievement. In sightseeing terms it is difficult to compare, for instance, the domestic and artistic life of Frieda Kahlo with the pyramids of Teotihuacan! We chose to go to all the places on our itinerary and all of them were memorable. Perhaps Monte Alban was the most mind blowing because I had no particular expectations of it, unlike Chichen Itza of which I had seen many pictures."

HG, Sherborne

A trip into the Sian Kaan biosphere with a community based tour company was a beautiful way to celebrate a 14th birthday for one of our girls.</p>

CL, Stafford

"While is difficult to find the better part, staying in the Hacienda Chichen Resort was magical, seen the Toh bird in Tanka was wonderful, as was swimming in the cenotes there and in Chichen Itza."

LCS, London

Swimming in the cenotes, chichen itza, Mexican food

VH, Chorley

Mexico is such an interesting country, very diverse. I recommend to read a good guide that could give an overview of the history of Mexico and don't miss the Museum of Anttopology if it is intended to visit the arqueological sites. For those interested in the political history of Mexico, it is a must to see 'the muralistas' e.g Diego Rivera, Siquieros, Tamayo and Orosco

CL, Harpenden

I loved the mexico city  walking tour  - really felt part of the city. Great restaurant recommendations too!  Also loved everything about San cristobel!

MK, London

I would have no hesitation in recommending the company and we will in future certainly use you again.  Everything that was arranged happened to time which for what I had been told about Mexico pleasantly surprised me.  All in all a fantastic experience 

BH Tonbridge

Specific memorable event: Having climbed up the large pyramid at the Mayan site, within the Calakmul biospere, not only did we love the impressive view across the tree canopy, but we were greeted by the amazing sound of 3 groups of howler monkeys calling to each other across the tree tops. The birdlife there was also wondeful to see.  Overall memorable part: the Mexican people - genuinely friendly, helpful and patient.

LG, St Albans

As a first time traveler to Central America, I can't stress enough how pleasurable Journey Latin America made Mexico for us.  We feel as if we have a million magical memories that will last forever - sunsets over the Caribbean sea, ruins in the midst of the jungles, seas of pink flamingos, crocodiles nestling on the banks of the Canyon Del Sumida.  We were nervous as non Spanish speakers but we felt so supported without that horrible feeling of being over organized. Thank you again

LH, Pinner

We thoroughly enjoyed everything about the holiday but were particularly impressed with the accommodation at the Hacienda VIP and the excursion to Uxmal and Kabah.

SS, Liverpool

All of it was good.  The actual order of places I visited also coincided with the progression of history, from ancient to more recent.  Very well arranged indeed.

DB, Birmingham

Highlights?: The serenity at Uxmal and the delightful city of Oaxaca

MF, London

We had a lovely day at the waterfalls and coffee plantation when in Huatulco.  We also did a tour of the bays which included snorkelling which was very enjoyable. We enjoyed the variety of culture mixed with the beach. All places visited made their mark. Mexico City very busy but worth seeing, Puebla lovely city with traditional crafts and culture. Oaxaca - town great place with lots of activity and music and Huatulco - enjoyed the local town La Crucecita for eating out.

RN, Ascot

Most Memorable Moment?: Hard to say as we enjoyed every part of our trip. We loved the mixture of ancient sites and other attractions so we did not feel overwhelmed by one type of attraction.

DS, Paisley

We enjoyed every aspect of the trip. The Sumidero Canyon possibly stands out as the most memorable part. Spectacular.

AP, Canterbury

Most memorable aspects were all the archaeological sites, which we enjoyed immensely. On the whole, we found local people very kind and helpful.
