Reviews
From Travel Bloggers
"If you want my opinion, doing a private tour with Vibe Adventures is the way forward if you are a couple or can get a small group together to bring down the cost. I was with my partner and our guide gave us plenty of time and space to relax and enjoy the experience. We never felt rushed at all. It really was the perfect day."
"You have 4 options to get to Grutas Tolantongo from Mexico City – sign up for a private or a group tour, rent a car or take the bus. I opted for the private tour option with Vibe Adventures and that was really the best decision for me as a solo traveler. Silvia and Jorge, my Vibe Adventures guides scheduled the entire day according to what I wanted."
From Customers
We stayed in Mexico City for a week and had many tours but this was the best one! Yadira drove us and she played awesome music! She also gave us a recommendation for breakfast and the food was wonderful.
Roberto was our guide and he was such a wealth of knowledge. I learned so much and highly recommend this tour for anyone interested in Grutas Tolantongo or to anyone visiting Mexico City. Hands down, the best tour offered in Mexico City thanks to the beauty of Grutas Tolantongo and the extraordinary tour guide and driver!
I recently went on a day trip from Mexico City to the Grutas de Tolantongo with Vibe. They called me the night before to confirm the pickup location and time and also ensured I knew what to bring and expect. Sal, my guide, arrived on the dot and was great company during the nearly 4 hour drive. He showed us to the best locations at the site and gave my daughter and me space and time to enjoy the location together. Because this was a private tour, our pick up and departure times were flexible which was really nice. On the way back, we stopped at a local shop to enjoy some pulque. Great experience.
Thank you Vibe Adventures, Ernesto, & Silvia for the fantastic tours.
We couldn't recommend Vibe Adventures highly enough for your next Mexico City excursion!
What an incredible experience!! Couldn't have spent a better day with Vibe Adventures at this magical place. Our driver Ulises and tour guide Sylvia were the nicest and friendliest guides I've ever met. They were super knowledgeable and took us to the best spots in the Grutas!
I can't wait to come back and do more tours with Vibe Adventures and am very grateful for this experience.
Totally worth the money and the long-ish drive there! Book your tour with Vibe now!!
