Overall it is a unique experience and I think it’s worth it if you love nature and wish to feel a connection to the environment. Some notes: it’s close to a three hour drive each way from central Mexico City to the fireflies sanctuary as traffic is thick. So just keep that in mind. Although the viewing season is in summer, it is also the rainy season. It will almost certainly rain when you go and it feels cold, it’s also late night, it’s not freezing but I highly recommend wearing some warmer layers. As it will rain a raincoat is a must, thankfully our driver stopped off in the town before the sanctuary so we could buy some long raincoats. Wellington rainboots are also a must. Finally the tour is operated by the sanctuary and it’s all in Spanish. Our guide/driver tried to translate some of it into English which I appreciate but I think we still miss out on some of the explanations, for example about the lifecycle of the fireflies, about the general ecosystem etc.
