Bad experience
Sierra_Y, May 2023
I will start by saying our guides were very nice and did their best with the situation at hand. I will also say I appreciate that when I brought the issue to the tour operators attention, they issued a $70 refund. However a $70 refund is disappointing for the experience we had, so I will continue with leaving a review. They listed the tour as a private transfer. This usually means a SUV or small van, but no, It was a small sedan, and my party of three was packed into the back of the car like sardines for a total of 8 hours. Our backs and legs hurt for having to sit still on top of each other for hours. Then, given the condition of the car, the tire bust and we had to pull over on the side of the road. The driver was able to put a donut tire on and make it to the grotas, but then he had to leave to find another tire The point of a private tour is that you can come and leave as you wish. But given the fact that our driver had to go all the way out of the mountains to get a new tire, we were stranded at the location two hours longer than we wanted to stay. So in terms of comfort and flexibility, you’d be better off taking a public tour for a fraction of the cost. Additionally the grotas were not that impressive, and are not worth losing a day in Mexico City. They are very impressive, are not all natural, and is really far for the value of the experience Additionally the tour lists snacks and water included and we did not get either
Response from Host, May 2023
Dear Sierra, Thanks a lot for your valuable feedback. We are sorry to hear that our tour could not fully meet your expectations - we will do our best to improve our services in the future. Meanwhile, please kindly let us provide some feedback: - Indeed, external circumstances like weather and tire issues can undermine the whole tour experience. The driver did his best to ensure a secure return to Mexico City and thus went to repair the original tire (using a donut tire would be do uncomfortable) which, given the location of Grutas de Tolantongo in a remote mountainous area, took him more time (thus, the return at 5 pm - the standard time for this tour, given its duration and pickup at 7 am). - As the description of the tour states, "the type of the vehicle depends on the size of your group and may include car, SUV, minivan." Thus, due to the size of your group, a car was provided. The price of the tour is indeed higher than the group one due to fixed costs and work of 2 people (guide an driver). regards, gratefully, Vibe Adventures’ team
Enjoyable trip to the hot springs!
Noel_H, Jan 2023
I was unable to go on this trip due to being ill, but my in-laws were able to go and they loved it! They said their guide was very helpful, and was able to stop so that they could purchase water shoes and coffee on the way. Although the trip was long, once they arrived there, they had several hours at the hot springs and really soaked up their time there!

Amazing tour
Hanh_T, Nov 2022
We had a blast with our private tour to Tolatongo. Isah and Carlos were our tour guide and driver. They are super sweet and very knowledgeable. They cater to our needs and everything along the way. The view was worth the long drive and the hot springs was amazing. Im so glad I got this off my bucket list. Highly recommended!
