4-hour guided tour from Puebla to Cholula, covering Remedies sanctuary, Santa María Tonantzintla church, and the archaeological zone.
“Very good trek to Cholula with our guide Josue! I highly recommend. Josue's highligts were remarkable. He was born in this city, and was willing to communicate his passion (in spanish as well as in english). I won't forget that special day, along with the "Boladores de Papantla".”
Hike Iztaccíhuatl from Puebla with a small-group guide in Izta-Popo National Park, choose 3 routes, and chase big volcano views.
“We had a fantastic day with Luis. He is a great guide and more importantly a good man. We did level 1 and Luis showed us, at our leisurely pace, and described the flora and fauna. Plus we saw our first humming birds! Top day.”
6-hour double-decker bus tour from Puebla to Cholula, with the Great Pyramid, San Gabriel convent, and Mexican Baroque churches at Tonanzintla and Acatepec.
“We had a Fantastic tour with a very good English spekking guide who promissed us to sent a photo and the tour was very interessting”
Puebla City walking tour in English: Zócalo, cathedral, toad alley, candy tasting, and El Parian market. 2 to 3 hours, $48.
“Josue made Puebla come to life. He gave us history, culture and some tips about places to eat. We wanted to practice speaking Spanish and he was patient. He was able to switch over to English as needed. He was personable and was very knowledgeable! Thank you, Josue!”
3-hour guided walk through Puebla’s Zócalo, Cathedral, and Biblioteca Palafoxiana, with legends, frogs, sweets, and markets. $53.
“Our guide Josue was so incredibly knowledgeable about Puebla - it’s history, legends and culture! Our time with him flew by. He also provided a number of recommendations for additional sites which we put to use the very next day. Muchas gracias Josue”
One-day safari at Africam Safari Puebla with a Spanish guide, Turibus round-trip, skip the ticket line, and 2,500 animals.
“It was good, but you sit in a large coach. Not like in the photos in a jungle jeep. Luckily, I sat at the back and could look out on both sides. When the bus is full, that's not possible. Sometimes it went a little too fast to enjoy the animals, more than just taking a quick photo. But it's a nice trip. However, in my opinion, these points are important to know. It doesn’t matter if y don’t speak Spanisch”
Half-day Cholula tour from Puebla to the Great Pyramid and two standout churches, plus pottery and a rompope tasting.
“Everything was great, Oscar provided a lot of information and went on our pace with a baby”
A small-group day trip from Puebla to Zacatlán and Chignahuapan, with apple sights, a crystal Floral Clock, and Christmas cheer.
“I posti che abbiamo visitato mi sono piaciuti molto, la guida Alejandro molto bravo, consiglierei però di ridurre molto i tempi, è stata una escursione lunghissima, più di 14 ore. Magari si potrebbe saltare la colazione e ridurre altri tempi perché i posti sono già molto lontani. Comunque in generale una bella esperienza.”
Ride Puebla’s double-decker tram from the Zocalo for 55 minutes of UNESCO sights, recorded audio, and open-air views for $10.
Pick the day out first, then the town it happens in.
