Gracias por compartir tu experiencia. Nos alegra muchísimo saber que disfrutaste la amabilidad y atención del equipo. Será un gusto acompañarte nuevamente, ya sea en esta u otra experiencia. Equipo Unlimited Experiences
Wonderful hike with our guide Aron, who gave us lots of interesting information about the history of Puebla and surrounding area on our drive out. We had a very tasty breakfast to help us get acclimated to the altitude, and then we had a terrific hike at the national park. Aron made sure we stayed on the right path, accommodated our pace, and even helped us spot a couple of birds. The scenery was lovely and the views at the top stunning. Well worth the trip!
Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re so happy to hear that your hike with Aron was such a memorable day, from the informative drive and delicious breakfast to the beautiful trail and stunning views. It’s great to know he made the experience comfortable, safe, and enjoyable at your pace. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you again for another adventure.

We liked the idea of a walk in the mountains, but without our own transport or knowledge of routes etc. this would have been impossible. The guided hike enabled us to do so safely, in the confidence that we would reach the starting point, would be well looked after and couldn't get lost. We were blessed with lovely weather on the day: chilly, but with beautiful sunshine, and the views of the mountains were spectacular. It was a peaceful day out, away from the busyness of the city. Walking was relatively easy (not rocky and not too steep), but the path was very dusty at times. We are not used to walking at high altitudes, but the route was well chosen for our ability (7 km each way). Hiram was a great guide, very patient, judged our ability and walked at our speed, taking into account that we were interested in stopping to look at birds etc. on the way. His English was excellent and communication was great throughout. All in all it was a great day's hiking. Many thanks.
Thank you for sharing such a thoughtful review. We’re very happy to hear that the guided hike allowed you to safely enjoy the mountains and the peaceful beauty away from the city. It’s wonderful to know the route suited your pace and ability, and that the weather and views made the day even more special. Hiram will be delighted to hear your kind words — his patience, attention, and care for each guest are exactly what we strive for. We truly appreciate your trust and hope to welcome you again for another memorable day in the mountains. Unlimited Experiences Team
Very careful and attentive. Puntually, the guide Andrea and the driver Gabriel were amazing. The landscape and the trail are worth it.
Muito obrigado por compartilhar sua experiência. Ficamos muito felizes em saber que Andrea e Gabriel foram tão atenciosos e pontuais, e que a trilha e a paisagem valeram totalmente a pena. Será um prazer recebê-los novamente em outra aventura. Unlimited Experiences Team
I had a unique and very strong experience on the Iztaccihuatl! Besides the chance I had with the weather that could not be better, I had the best guide there is, Aaron, whom I thank again for his enlightened advice, his geological, geographical and cultural explanations and for all the other exchanges! My physical conditions even allowed us to push two levels higher than expected to reach the 5000m which was unexpected.
Merci beaucoup pour ce magnifique retour. Nous sommes ravis de savoir que votre expérience sur l’Iztaccihuatl a été aussi forte et mémorable, avec une météo parfaite et un dépassement de soi jusqu’à 5 000 m. Aaron sera très touché de lire vos mots et de savoir que ses conseils et explications ont enrichi votre aventure. Merci de nous avoir fait confiance pour vivre un moment aussi unique en montagne.

We made a last minute booking for a hiking tour with Unlimited Experiences and they were very responsive. Very punctual pick up from the Puebla hotel for our day hike. Aaron was our private guide - he was great in giving us a good background about the hike, the volcanoes and just Puebla in general. The hike was well paved and very scenic - we loved it and took many great photos. Highly recommend to anyone who want to do something different when visiting Puebla!
I climbed iztaccihual with 3 summits adventure. I highly recommend this company if you plan to do any of the surrounding peaks. Yvonne kept a good steady pace, was attentive to how we were doing/ feeling throughout the climb and kept us safe. Although it was a tough hike, we successfully reached the summit!
Thank you for sharing your experience! We're thrilled to hear you had such a successful and rewarding. We hope to see you again for your next adventure.
Great experience with a true local! We are quite experienced hikers but didnt know how we would have handled the altitude. With a smooth pace we managed to hike from 3900 to 4500m with a beautiful view, despite the cloudy weather. Aaron shared a lot of interesting information with us, I would definitely recommend!
Hi María :) Thank you so much!! We are glad to know that you managed to reach the 3rd gate and enjoyed the incredible views of the national park. Aaron is very happy to have met you and shared this incredible experience with you. Kind regards from the entire Unlimited Team
Really good experience hiking with Ariel. A difficult home for some no doubt due to the altitude - we found it tough at times, but worth the effort. Spectacular views. Hosts provided drinks etc that weren’t expected. Very pleased with this experience overall
Hello Aiden! ♥ We loved your comment. Ariel is very happy to know that you enjoyed your tour with him. We hope to see you soon for more adventures together.
