Question: Is Airfare Included in the Price?
Excellent itinerary which exceeded our expectations. Well executed as well. Gate 1 didn't disappoint.
Affordable Tours makes it easy to compare tours offered by different operators. While we have booked tours with other operators through Affordable Tours, our favorite remains Gate 1. The recent tour (Colonial Mexico) we took with them was an absolute delight, and a good part of that experience was because of the tour director Liliana Aceves. She was the best - a Mexican with superb command over English and full of knowledge about colonial Mexican history.
This was an excellent tour! Everything went to plan, and our guide was excellent. I salute him for managing a group of 40 people on his own! That being said, I think having a second guide for a group of this size would be prudent. One of the group members suffered an injury and had to go to get stitches. With our guide tending to that, the rest of the group just kind of wandered around. Luckily, no one got lost or had any problems, but I can see how this could go very wrong. One hotel, La Aldea in San Miguel Allende, was a bit below the standard of the other hotels. Its location was excellent but the bathrooms were a bit outdated.
Accommodation at Mexico City was great. It was average or below for rest of the places. I think people are willing to pay more with better accommodation.
We had an excellent tour director & a memorable trip.
The operator, Gate 1, was wonderful as always. Our guide and our driver were great. One thing that I hope Gate 1 will continue is that we received a day-by-day travel brochure outlining the day's activities. For those of us who like to keep travel journals, it made life much easier.
Very happy with the entire trip!
