Wow, the visit was very beautiful. The guide was very friendly, and we all loved our time with Emmanuel! Super informative, patient, and friendly. He gave us good recommendations for what to eat and do in MTY as well. The company was also a great help when I left something in the car, and they were very professional. Seriously, this trip was a highlight of our time in Mexico.
The waterfalls were absolutely beautiful and going early with few people was even better, allowed time to really enjoy the area. The drive up to the waterfalls was not what we expected and it was neat hearing about the area. The town of Santiago was very beautiful and we had fun hearing about the history and walking around town as well as lunch in a local spot. Emmanuel was a wonderful guide, very knowledgeable and helpful in advising on places to go and enjoy Monterrey for the remaining time we had. Definitely recommend if you’re in the area and have time.
I highly recommend this experience, as we learned a lot about the beautiful place that is Monterrey, as well as the town of Santiago and the general area. Emmanuel, our guide, was wonderful and provided a safe, fun and highly enjoyable experience. No complaints whatsoever!
The guide was very friendly excellent Walk, explained all details was a very nice experience. In spectacular places it has beautiful views and the truth we loved.!! Thanks to Vicente who illustrated us with data and information about the place 🍃
Vicente was an exceptional tour guide and truly made our experience unforgettable. His deep knowledge of Santiago, NL and the waterfalls at Cola del Caballo brought the area to life in a way we wouldn’t have discovered on our own. As a local, he shared unique insights and hidden gems that added so much value to the tour. He was also incredibly attentive and thoughtful, offering great restaurant and bar recommendations throughout the city. I highly recommend Vicente—he’s the kind of guide that elevates the entire experience to five stars!
Manny was GREAT. He was super informative and extremely knowledgeable about any and everything we seen.
The service was wonderful, super attentive, friendly, providing interesting information about the State and place. The tour is very basic, not so diverse.
This tour was a 10/10 experience! The short hike to the waterfall was beautiful, and Santiago was such a gem of a town✨ Deme, our tour guide, was also incredible, friendly, and very knowledgeable. I would recommend this tour to everyone! Such a great time.
My guide Polo was an excellent driver, well versed in a variety of subjects and an absolute pleasure to chat with.
I really enjoyed this tour because it was one of the few activities on getyourguide where I can book alone so that was a plus! Demetrio is bilingual so I’m sure many would find that helpful. I saw beautiful views. And I’m so happy about my purchase 🙌‼️
