We had a great time on this trip seeing the Great Pyramid of Cholula and the churches. Puebla was beautiful as well. Franck was a fantastic guide - very knowledgeable and clear.
Unforgettable trip

Ernesto and Mariana made this an unforgettable trip. Ernesto was punctual, adjusted the tour to our requirements, full of knowledge, extremely patient and never pushed us to speed up or to buy from particular shops. It was fun conversing with him during the drive to and from Puebla. I whole heartedly recommend this tour and the Tekpan Tours as a tour operator for other guided tours in Mexico.

Wonderful experience to spend time in beautiful towns a little bit away from Mexico City. The tour guide Frank was warm and knowledgeable.
Excellent full day private tour to Cholula and Puebla

I had a great experience with Pepe who was my guide on the full day tour to Cholula and Puebla. It was very easy to communicate with him via WhatsApp prior to the tour, he was on time picking me up at the hotel with a very good car. He was very knowledgeable and fun to talk to. He didn't push any shopping stops. He let me have ample of time at every place there was no rushing anywhere . We stopped on the way at a spot where the volcanoes were nicely visible (a stop that I requested). In Cholula we walked around town, first visited one of the old churches and then walked up to the church on top of the pyramid and then visited the Museum and archeological site. It felt very complete. Then we continued onto Puebla. We chose a good restaurant with local mole for lunch, and then had a nice exhaustive tour of the city. It included a visit to the cathedral, the rosary church with the amazing golden chapel, the famous library from the 17th century and lots of walking on pretty colorful streets and market. This tour was exactly what I was looking for - low pressure but very comprehensive. I highly recommend both Pepe and the tour company (booked via Viator).
Ancient and Colonial Exploration of Cholula and Puebla

Wonderful private day trip for myself and my husband. Our excellent guide was Pepe. We were able to move at our own pace spending as much time as needed in each location. We stopped en route to view and take photos of two volcanoes Popocatel and Iztaccihuatl. Then we went on to Cholula where we were pleasantly surprised by the charming town plus The Great Pyramid of Cholula, also known as Tlachihualtepetl. It is the largest archaeological site of a pyramid in the New World, as well as the largest pyramid by volume known to exist in the world today! The Spanish built a church upon the pyramid. We climbed up to the church and had amazing views of the surrounding area. Next we drove to Puebla. Had a variety of mole enchiladas for lunch on the Zocalo. Followed by a walking tour of the colonial neighborhoods, artist enclaves, old library, churches, talavera pottery studios and more. Fabulous adventure filled day.
