Must do!! - We booked this tour through Tripadvisor (one note we could only book for 3 people or more, but there was only 2 of us). Company contacted us the day before with details. Our driver Francisco (Frank) was wonderful! Could not fault him. From his brilliant driving, showing us all the best sites, giving lots of information on the various areas and was very insightful. He let us spend however long, or short, we wanted in places. Also got a chance to wander around some of the local markets which was lovely. We also went to a place he recommended for lunch and it was the best food we had in Mexico! Puebla and Cholula are both beautiful, with lots of history and things to see. Definitely worth taking a visit from Mexico City, if you have the time. Francisco really made this tour for us. This was one of our favourite days during our trip. We would definitely recommend it and think it is well worth it!

Amazing visit and tour guide - Gerardo was our guide for the day. We first went to Cholula to visit the Santuario de la Virgen de los Remedios, a magnificent place with breathtaking views of the mountains, volcano, and the cities of Puebla and Cholula. Then, we saw the exterior of the Cholula pyramid (no need to enter the site itself as it's visible from the outside). We strolled through the city and visited the Templo de Santa Maria Tonantzintla, an incredible and meaningful place. Gerardo has extensive knowledge and draws our attention to specific details. Later, we explored the city of Puebla. We had lunch at a highly recommended restaurant by Gerardo and continued our city tour (including the Metropolitan Cathedral of Puebla, El Parian market, and Zocalo). Gerardo is passionate, answering all your questions and adding significant depth to your visits. We're happy to have met you, Gerardo!

Excellent guide and driver - Ernesto was a wonderful guide. We ate local food that we would not have been able to find ourselves. It was a perfect mix of trying different foods, architecture, art, crafts. He arrived early to pick us up, the driver was excellent as well. Definitely recommend this tour.

Amazing day with Monse and Carlos - We had a fabulous day on our tour to Puebla with our guide Monse and driver Carlos. They were both professional, welcoming and kind. Monse is a wealth of knowledge and it makes such a difference when you can tell how much somebody loves their home country the way she does. We learned a ton, and had fun/good food, too! Carlos was an excellent and safe driver, too. Overall, highly recommend this tour and visit to beautiful Puebla!

Best Tour Guide in Mexico City - Marianna is the best tour guide ever! Her knowledge of the history of the sites she showed us, and the whole of Mexican history, is very impressive. She made us feel comfortable right away and made sure to check on our needs all throughout the day. Her recommendations were all stellar, topping this off with a superb lunch at Casa Baccolar. I will definitely recommend Marianna to all my friends who are planning to visit Mexico City. Thank you, Marianna! You made our trip truly memorable! Hasta Pronto!

Follow Ernesto's Advice when it comes to Tacos! - We went to Puebla and Cholula with Ernesto and Señor Alvino. Ernesto was very helpful and knowledgeable. I travelled with my boyfriend and his teenage son. Ernesto was able to connect with the boy based on their shared love of history. Ernesto comes from an archeology background. At one point, the boy got sick in a 16th century cathedral. It could have been the end of the trip, but Ernesto was so patient. He said "These things happen" and really tried to make the best of the situation. We also were taken to an incredible taco place. I've never had a taco like that before. Let him order for you! You won't regret it.
