Great day trip from CDMX
Kevin_S, 18-12-2022
We had a great day getting out and back from Taxco. The tour was exceptional as was our guide and drive. Very friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. The road is a bit windy so if you get motion sickness easily, plan accordingly. Highly recommend.
Great day trip!...

Great day trip! Cuernavaca is a nice stop and Taxco is absolutely beautiful. The guide and driver were very good. Just be aware, it’s a long day and if you are sitting in the very back of the van, you really feel the bumps in the road.
Taxco a must

Taxco was the best. In my opinion you could skip Curenavaca. It took time away from Taxco. Our guide Jose was great and the bus driver whose name I didn't get was wonderful. This tour picked us up at our home and took us back to our hotel which was a great benefit that I needed, It was a small group of 4 couples which was much better than a big bus full of people
Beautiful city of Taxco

Rocio and Jesus were informative, helpful and kind. They went out of their way to make the experience as comfortable and enjoyable as possible for each of us. My favorite part was our time in Taxco, from the busy zócalo to the views from the Cristo Rey. We enjoyed an amazing rooftop meal at El Atrio, as well. For the time in Cuernavaca, I wish we had made more stops rather than just the cathedral. But overall, I very much enjoyed this trip and I learned a lot.

I thought the tour was nice.
Raul the tour guide was very pleasant and informative; his driver was great.
I feel that the time in Cuernavaca is a waste. There really wasn't much to do or see in Cuernavaca.
Taxco silver jewelry was nice, I bought a few pieces of jewelry ; reasonable prices.
