Taxco The Silver Town With Stop In Cuernavaca

Hi the tour was not what we expected The guide just took us to cuernavaca to one street of the city , no explanations where given In Taxco they just immediately took us to a shop instead of taking us to sight seen in the city Again they did not have any info or knowledge regarding the place At the time of lunch they forgot to include us in the list of those who paid for it so we had to contact them after we were forced to pay , so that they could reimburse us. They did But simply it is not what they advertised. Look for another option !!!

This tour is advertised as a “Cuernavaca and Taxco” tour but was really a Taxco tour plus a 45 minute stopover in Cuernavaca. I booked because I wanted to see murals and the palace/fort in Cuernavaca, but the palace was closed. We saw only the church. I suggested going to a nearby waterfall (Cascada de Anton) but the guide said we did not have enough time. Luckily, Taxco was a much better experience. We had lots of time to explore Taxco and the restaurant chosen by the tour had a spectacular view. My tour guide, Ursula, was great. (December 2020)

The tour guide was entertaining and very knowledgeable we liked her very much. The driver was like most drivers in Mexico , he drove a bit too fast and too close to the other cars we had a few near misses on the drive too and from our location. The stop in Cuernavaca was too quick. The tour guide explained that a local silver baron built a huge house directly in front of the cathedral that we visited and that the house was now a museum. It was a very interesting bit of history that was important to the two cities we were visiting but yet we had no time to visit. I’d argue that the house would of been a better stop than the cathedral. On the drive to Tacxo our driver was shook down for money at a closed toll station. The driver was told to give money or we would not be allowed to pass all this was done in eyesight of a police officer! Unbelievable, we were told that this was normal. While in Tacxo we were led into a restaurant for lunch. I had not paid for lunch so I assumed I would be able to go to a restaurant of my choice, I was wrong. At the restaurant we were given a menu with only two meal choices. I didn’t think much of eat until the table next to me received the regular menu with numerous choices. The meal was horrible! Literally the worst meal I’ve had in Mexico and I’ve lived here for three months!!

We spent an owful time in pickup times and waiting’s. Arriving eventually at Taxco at 2pm (including 20mn no more in Cuernavaca). People just seemed not to know who was going and where and when. The lunch was shameful The two stars are for Taxco only. A beautiful city that we saw too quickly

Very bad experience we left behind schedule and had to skip Cuernavac because guide said that all the places that are go-to places to see were closed for renovations? the drive was chaotic at best, there were times we all thought we were going to crash, very fast in and out of traffic just a horrible experience all around, Taxco was a delight but the trip over is something I hope nobody expiereces.

Taxco is just an amazing little town full of jewelry, history and kind people. We really enjoyed our tour there, the ride was excellent, the guide was always pending on whatever you might need… highly recommended!

I had an excellent time, I loved the sites we were taken to, and the guide was great, very informative. I had a really awesome time, and the pictures absolutely amazing. Wish we could spend more time in Cuernavaca, but the main attraction to this tour is Taxco, and you will not be disappointed. They only bad thing I have about this tour is be very very very careful with your belongings, do not leave anything behind, because you will not get it back. I called the phone number provided, right after I got off the bus and noticed I had left a bag of souvenirs, they informed me that they still hadn't reached their second stop to call them back in 10 minutes, so I did, and they were not able to find anything, like it disappeared, disappointed at the level of dishonesty of the tour guides/company, but that's life I suppose! But the tour itself was nice, like I said just be very careful and make sure you don't leave anything behind or you will not get anything back.

It was an excellent destination with an effective transfer and a very kind and attentive guide.

Great tour, the guide was very informative about the history of Taxco, Cuernavaca and the states of Mexico that we passed through to get there. To our destinations. What I would change is that when they take you to the silversmiths it feels slightly like you are forced to buy. Other than that, I highly recommend this tour.

Excellent experience, the service was very good and fun

Excellent attention, communication and service. Very punctual and organized. Pick up and drop you off at the hotel. Very friendly and attentive

Apesar da distância da Cidade do México, zilhões de curvas, Taxco vale a pena. O guia local Carlos foi muito atencioso e explicou muita coisa.

Fue una buena excursión con lugares preciosos que me encantaron pero no muy bien gestionado porque nos llevaron dos veces a tiendas de plata y se perdió mucho tiempo. Por ello no dio tiempo de subir al mirador y ver Taxco en su conjunto. Una pena

Un gran día con un gran grupo. Felicitaciones a Inés en su rol de guía y gracias al señor conductor!

The instructor was very good, knew a lot about history. The driver very careful. However, the route was terrible, Cuernavaca 3 churches close together and that's it, no more than 1 hour. We did not know its streets, nor its most important churches. Terrible Taxco. They take places of interest to them, supposedly mine (horrible) silver, extremely expensive, they invent a discount that in the end is still expensive. Then for lunch, the church (interesting explanation from the instructor) from the beginning they tell us that we have two hours, then one for lunch and we left and they took us to another silver shop of interest to them (none wanted to go) they left us only one hour to know. I really don't recommend it

Nuestro guía y conductor José Guadalupe conoce bien el recorrido, fue puntual y muy amable. Fue una gran experiencia, muy divertida y aprendimos mucho

They took us to Cuernavaca on an approximate 1 hour trip, we visited their Churches, then we headed to Taxco which is a beautiful place for its landscape, a wonderful view with hot weather, friendly people and many jewelry stores that provide you on arrival your glass of Tequila. It's time to smug ourselves for a while and shop to smug the women in the family.

One day is a short time, taxco deserves one or two days is amazing!! Cuernavaca is also very beautiful and you need at least a whole day to enjoy

The tour to Cuernavaca and Taxco guided by Kevin and Ariadne was very nice. The luxury bus and very comfortable, only, the time in Cuernavaca is very short, almost not much can be done, it is understood by the time that you have to take in Taxco, but then you should do a tour only for Taxco. Taxco is really magical, and the purchases you can make are pretty good.
