Tour and guide were incredible. - Our tour guide Lithage?? was truly excellent. She picked us up at the hotel on time and provided some history of the areas that we passed through on the way to the Shrine. Inside she gave us very detailed information and did not rush us at all. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone.

More a personal experience than a tour - Our tour was perfect! I can’t remember her name, but she took us everywhere, spending as much time as we wanted. Pick up was on time. Nothing tops seeing Our Lady of Guadalupe, and attending Mass at the basilica comes in second. Our tour encompassed everything, and nothing was rushed. Highly recommend her.

Overpriced private tour with unengaging guide - The site itself was beautiful and amazing! We went back on our own the next day and spent even more time there. The tour was very overpriced and not what we expected (I have done TA tours before and they have always been top notch). Our guide was nice and knew a lot about the facts/history about the area and the Guadalupe Shrine, but she did not have the skills to be a good tour guide. She didn't ask us anything about ourselves, did not make the van ride engaging, and did not take command of the tour. We could have almost done the same thing on our own, just as we did the next day without a guide. We took another TA tour two days later to the pyramids, and that guide was exceptional!

Avoid this company - Canceled less than 24 hours before trip. Apparently they sent an email 24 hours before my visit that I wasn't able to respond to because I was on a plane so they said I forfeited it and REFUSED TO REFUND. They gave no indication that I would need to expect said email and that I must respond within 2 hours or I would be forfeiting

Disappointed - My tour was cancelled and no reason was stated. I was just sent an email stating that it would not be taking place.
