Good day out. - The guides were great, Margarita and Stefany. A two-hour ride to the waterfall via a small bakery stop. Hiking or swimming were possible. Plenty of places to eat and drink. Fantastic views across the mountains.

A wonderful day trip - Fani was a wonderful guide, and the tour was the perfect amount of time to hike, swim and learn about Mezcal. Also, the tamales at the first stop, an old school bakery, were amazing!

Highly recommended - Great tour guide from Stephanie. Also true to the description, the tour just goes to to Hierve El Agua and back without any stopping at rug factories etc

Five Stars ⭐️ - Fani and Carlos love. I loved the musical selection. I would have stayed longer in Boil the Water. A paradise and phenomenal weather. I spent a divine day. Thank you so much! I will return to the family.🙏🏼

Well worth it! - Really fascinating experience, Hierve el Agua was beautiful, it was fun to swim in, and the mezcal tour was the icing on the cake. Miguel, our guide was a very good and engaging storyteller as well. Only slight downside is that we recieved an email saying you could buy coffee and breakfast at the meetingpoint, but it wasnt available at the time afterall.

A wonderful day in oaxaca - Such a fun day! Fany was a great host and Don Miguel was a maestro behind the wheel. Both Hierve el Agua and the mezcaleria were wonderful experiences. The van was comfortable and everyone was super nice. Couldn't recommend this tour enough.

Hierve Buena - We loved this tour. It both managed to convey a lot of information and provide ample time for relaxing exploration. The guy Miguel was wonderful and charming. The stops of the bakery in the Mezcal distillery were great bookends for relaxing three hours at the “waterfall” and pools.

Day trip to Hierve el Agua - Our guide was lovely, and the trip was a great way to see the amazing mountains around Oaxaca. If you want to go to Hierve el Agua, do it! But skip the distillery tour..it was silly.
