Day 5: Depart to a gorgeous beach on Oaxaca State's coast!

We will drive across a beautiful mountain range sometimes at an altitude of almost 3,000 meters with exceptional views and changes in nature, arriving at the coast at mid day so you still will have plenty of time to accomodate at your hotel and go for a swim at the ocean, enjoy food, sun and relax, relax, relax!

09:00 AM

Day 6: Beach!

Plenty of things to do or... not to do! You can just relax and watch the sunrise, the kissing beaches (because two beaches are joined by a beautiful geography), swim a bit and get that tan or... you can wake up early, go jogging, have your breakfast and explore nearby beaches!

09:00 AM

Day 7: Beach!

This is your "basecamp" from where you can do as much as you like, from relaxing to visiting nearby beaches, exploring famous Punta Cometa, a rocky formation that ends in the sea and that divides astonishing swimmable beaches with almost no people. Also you can explore different front beach restaurants & bars for sipping a drink and taste Mexican or International cuisine.

09:00 AM

Day 8: Beach!

Besides the wonderful alternatives of almost empty nearby beaches, excelent food and great landscapes, you could take a boat for snorkeling, whale watching (on season) or just admire the coast from the sea. There are also tours for visiting a crocodile farm, waterfalls and do jungle treks. All of this extra tours are not included but don't worry, we know the people there and can arrange quite affordable prices for you!

09:00 AM

Day 9: Depart to a beautiful open sea beach where we can see the night sky as in a movie! Or to Acapulco.

Time to enjoy your breakfast and board our minivan heading for a great open sea beach where you can not swim. Instead you can walk along and see a lot of marine birds,admire big waves and at night watch the stars as probably you have never seen them before (of course, provided it's not cloudy!) Anyway, the feeling of being at this place is a unique experience also because of the sounds of the nearby jungle. But don't worry about all this naturness, you'll sleep at a very cozy hotel with great service and food!

Return to Mexico City. We can depart around 12 o'clock so you can have time for that last photo shooting, shopping, wake up a bit later and take it easy. Mexico City is only 2.5 hours away and we'll arrive with enough time for you to accomodate at your cozy hotel (same one as you had on your first night) This is where/when your Golden Circle Tour finishes and you have this night already payed

About Tour Guide Rafael G.

I've been guiding family and friends in Mexico for over 30 years, arranging tours, van rentals, accomodation, excursions, archaeological visits, museums, etc., Now I completed my official general guide course in order to be certified by the government to guide national & international guests. I love my country, its culture, history, etc. and know a lot of interesting facts besides the normal guidance for tourists. I've travelled extensively across the country and love to share my knowledge because it's like rediscovering everythin again!

Reviews

Wonderful Experience!

We had the best day with Rafael in Mexico City. He picked us up from an airport hotel and truly introduced us to Mexico City on our first day. He was so friendly and knowledgeable about everything - from history, to food, to architecture and more. He was also super patient and let us practice our Spanish. :) We visited the Xochimilco canals and an axolotl sanctuary which was one of the highlights of our trip. Rafael answered all of our questions with enthusiasm and made the trip engaging from start to finish. If you're looking for an authentic, educational, and memorable experience in Mexico City, I can't recommend Rafael highly enough. Thank you for an incredible day—we'll be talking about it for years to come!

WOW! Kelly! Thanks so much for your SO VERY KIND WORDS. You made my day! Best regards to you & Bart and I hope to see you again... Cheers!

A 'tour de force' highly impactful and memorable stay much enhanced by Rafael's experience, personality and efforts.

We were most fortunate to engage Rafael for three days while in Mexico City. He curated a most extra-ordinary experience that immersed us in the long and complex arc of Mexican history covering pre-Columbian empires, Spanish colonialism and the modern tumult since independence. He was highly knowledgeable about details but wrapped the information in digestible bites that were both impactful and memorable with just the right touch of humor. He was flexible and responsive, adjusting aspects as we went along based on interests and energy levels. He also provided us with some 'out of the usual lanes' experiences that included the culinary. We would highly recommend Rafael if you are considering a stay in Mexico.

Michael you are very kind for writing this extensive review, I'm flattered by your comments. Thanks so much and for me it was also a time for learning and enjoying your company and Annette's of course. Hope to see you soon again in Mexico! Best regards dear friend...

Best guide

Rafael is the best travel guide you will ever have! He is extremely well studied as a historian and brings tons of personal experience and knowledge from a life spent well traveled. He is easy going and flexible, so your trip can be tailored to your interests and adapted as you go along. You will see and do things that only a local could show you. I went on a vacation, but left with a friend!

Dear Danielle, I'm so flattered and honored because of your comments... I also began my days with you as "work" but ended enjoying your company so much that I felt as a travel mate, not only a guide. Thanks very very much and I look forward to travel with you again soon! Best wishes for you!
