A great day in Patzcuaro - Wonderful trip to Patzcuaro, visiting the archaeological site of Tzintzantzun, boat trip to Janitzo island, plus a great lunch and a couple hours visiting Patzcuaro town. Rodrigo is a fantastic guide, perfect English and very knowledgeable of the history, culture and food of Michoacan. Highly recommended!

Excellent day trip from Morelia! Scenic, historic, charming. - Rodrigo is a great guide! The tour was wonderful, ours included the amazing pre-Columbian Tzintzuntzan with round pyramids! Great view of the lake from there. Then a very scenic drive with views of the islands to a copper studio. Amazing artisans showing us the steps to create this historic artwork. Lunch was in Patzcuaro at a charming local restaurant. Rodrigo then led us about the town square and into some of the “Eleven Patios” that were cloistered courtyards. I was able to get some lovely textiles and embroidered clothing as gifts. Highly recommend.

Great learning - Excellent tour with Rodrigo , although we had drawbacks on the way out of his control and could not carry out the tour as described, he was in charge of restocking with many other sites of historical and archaeological interest. He gave us a super interesting tour through the history of Mexico and Michoacan that we really wanted to spend talking to him all day.

Excellent tour Morelia to Tzintzuntzan, Juanitzio, and Pátzcuaro - Thank you, Rodrigo. Lindy and I enjoyed our day very much. Your passion and knowledge of the Michoacán history comes through loud and clear!! The pyramid ruins at Tzintzuntzan are beautiful to see. And our trip to Isla Juanitzio was especially memorable since our boat had to be towed the last half of the trip to the island!! Pátzcuaro is a lovely town and your commentary on the history of the old convent was fascinating!! We appreciate your recommendations on additional sights and restaurants in Morelia. It always helps to have an insiders view!! Gracias, Barbara

For a family trip, I highly recommend Mobenpic Black Resort. Breakfast is also prepared for Koreans. There are many events for children. Our kids loved chocolate. I also recommend Swimming Pool. - Kim Ngannnnn staff was very kind to me. It was so good. 2 nights and 3 nights. I should come again. For families with children, Movenpic is the best. Highly recommended.
