Perfect Cholula Experience - Our guide, Danna, and our driver, Alberto provided the perfect Cholula experience. We visited the Cholula archaeological museum, and the archaeological zone, visited amazing churches, had a taste of local liqueurs, and got to know all about the beautiful Talavera tiles. Danna was the perfect guide, and her knowledge of the history and geography of the area made this an absolutely wonderful tour.

Amazing private tour of Cholula - Alexa was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and flexible. She tailored the tour to our interests and pace, making sure we got the perfect experience. Oh… and the Teokali and churches we visited were amazing as well. 😁 Would highly recommend Unlimited Experiences and Alexa, and will utilize this service the next time we are in Puebla/Cholula!

Excellent tour! - Alexa was a wonderful guide. Very knowledgeable about the history of Cholula and also Puebla. My brother and I learned a great deal about the site, including the church that sits above the ruins. We are both in our 70's and I was pretty slow. Alexa was very patient and encouraging. I am so glad we took this tour. Also, 2 more excellent churches were included and we had mezcal and tequilla tastings, too. Highly recommend the service of Alexa and our driver, Alberto!

Okay tour - Tour was okay. Saw the pyramid and churches. Felt the tour guide could have been a little more enthusiastic. The driver was good. Felt some free time could have been given in Cholula given we drove through the town.
