This trip involves some long days of travel by private and local transport, including one overnight bus. While this can be tiring, it's also a fantastic way to rub shoulders with the locals and get under the skin of a place.
Mexico's climate is sultry and tropical, so can get really hot and humid. Wear loose clothing and make sure stay hydrated, especially while out on walking tours.

Great tour, every time. Unless all tour guides are as good as Ana Hernández Flores. We have seen and experienced a lot, it was a dream. However, the tour is not suitable for older people or people with less physical condition and coordination.I would book the tour again immediately, only the long bus rides are tired maybe upgrade book :-) and fly. But also this bus trips were worthwhile for the fantastic view of the pyramids.
