What To Expect
Start with morning pickup at your hotel in Mexico City (or make your way to a centrally-located meeting point), then begin the 53-mile (86-km) trip to Cuernavaca, the capital of Morelos state. Upon arrival in the city—often called the “city of the eternal spring” for its mild climate—tour the most important landmarks of Cuernavaca’s colonial era.
Visit one of the oldest cathedrals on the continent, see the beautifully-preserved gothic mudejar architecture of the Palace of Cortes, and take in some of the city’s elegant streets and mansions.
The next stop is the Sierra Madre town of Taxco, where the mountains offer a dramatic backdrop for colonial churches and classic, whitewashed homes. You’ll visit the Baroque Santa Prisca Cathedral, and stroll cobblestone streets to silver workshops—Taxco silver is exceptionally pure, and this is the perfect place to pick up up unique silver souvenirs and gifts. Pause for a buffet lunch of stews, salads, pasta, and fresh desserts, then begin the return trip to Mexico City, where this tour concludes.

Great company to tour with (mexitours). The tour guide/driver was excellent. A great opportunity to see the countryside. Taxco is a must see.

Mexitours, again....This time the tour guide was good but not great. Lunch was a buffet and it was not ok. Cuernavaca is a nice place and Taxco, known for the silver, was ok. I know this tour companies has to send tourists to the COOP's but sometimes they are too pushy.

Julieta our guide was very knowledgeable about history of the areas we drove through. There were only two of us English speakers and she was careful to translate her comments for us personally. The scenery we saw was spectacular and Taxco itself was absolutely beautiful. I plan to return.
Alina_K, Jun 2016
Very disorganized company - tour started 2 hours late. Instead of English tour as it was requested we got into Spanish speaking group and the guide struggled to constantly translate between languages which resulted in disappointing and incomprehensive experience.

La Catedral de Cuernavaca y sus capillas muy bonitas, y qué decir del pueblo mágico de Taxco, es hermoso; fue una experiencia increíble recorrer sus calles empedradas y conocer su historia, la majestuosa Catedral de Santa Aprisca, los talleres de plata, la venta de artesanías y muy bien atendidos por el chofer y guía turístico que nos explicó a detalle todos los lugares importantes de nuestro recorrido desde la Cd. de Mexico hasta Taxco.

Es un tour qué hay que hacer. Lamentablemente el conductor nos tuvo a puro regueton toooodo el viaje y ya deporsi es algo cansado por el calor que además se complicó ya que la microbús no tenía aire acondicionado. Los viajes no fueron confortables. Los lugares y la comida un 10.
Response from Host, Apr 2023
Estimado Sr Julio.
Muchas gracias por sus comentarios los cuales son muy importantes para nosotros, tómanos nota de estos y revisaremos que la música que se ponga en las unidades sea música de géneros más universales, así como sus comentarios sobre nuestras unidades.
