A parcel of colonial cities in Mexico are a must-see. Puebla and Cholula are novel in historical, cultural and on-going contexts. The current vibe exudes and will be back to explore these at leisure. Additionally, the Puebla Parian Market was an eye opener on the look-out for black clay sculpture or vase with engaging locals that were easy going and relaxed. This English speaking tour was mostly done in Spanish to the detriment of my spouse who was lost. The frequent reminders to the guide did little to to make the situation better. Had to do the translation. Saludos, hasta que nos encontramos otra vez!
Puebla town is really nice but we didn't have enough time to explore it. This tour is good if you just want to have an overview and get a feel for the area. If you really want to immerse in and soak in the culture of the town, suggest to go there yourself and spend an overnight so you have more freedom to roam about.
Cool Trip, liked Puebla the best.
unfortunately the churches and most important places were closed due to the earthquake, so we did not get to see the highlights.
Chaotic to find the right bus at central assembly point Mauricio was an excellent driver to cope with the horrific traffic. We sat more in traffic jams than at the sights. The guide Roberto was quite mediocre. My friend and I booked an English tour, but we were the only 2 English speakers and the guide only gave minimal information He did not stick around when we had free time to shop, neither at lunch . Nobody explained the foods at the buffet. On the way back Roberto gave zero information. Talked the entire time with the driver. Very disappointing.
