We went on several tours during our stay in Acapulco and this was our favorite place that we visited in the area. We were picked up on time and drove through some beautiful mountain scenery on the way to the site and also got to go through one of the longest tunnels in the world. We had two guides for the day in addition to Rudy, who drove us out to the site and brought us back to the city for the remainder of our tour. We were asked if we wanted an indepth tour or a basic tour. We love history and archaeological sites, so we opted for the indepth tour. We have visited several ruins in Mexico and Central America and found this site to be very interesting as the architecture and construction of the site was a little bit different from others we have seen. Most notable were the sunken ball court and slopes on the temple. It was amazing how the lines of the temples matched up with the lines of the surrounding mountains. The site has only been open to the public for a few years and much of it has not been excavated yet. I hope they will open up more of the site in the future. At the site, we were joined by the former owner, Poli, who has lived there all his life and told us a lot of information about the site, the Yope tribe, and explained to us some details about ruins in general that we did not know before. It was a great to be able to learn about the site instead of just looking at it. Our guides translated all of his information for us. Our guides really made our day enjoyable. Alfonso and Jesus were very personable and did their best to make sure we were enjoying ourselves, were comfortable, and having a great experience. Back in the city, Alfonso pointed out many places of interest and entertained us with tales of his experiences in Acapulco. Lunch was at The Cabana at Caleta Beach. It was very nice to eat with a view of the beach and smell the ocean. There were fans and misters inside the open air restaurant to keep you cool. We opted for the included lunch, or you could pay the cost difference if you wanted something else. We wanted to try the authentic chicken tacos. The meal was not what we imagined it would be, but was very tasty. It was interesting to learn that their style of tacos is different from what Americans consider tacos. The meat was rolled up in the tortilla and deep fried with the toppings served on the side instead of inside the shell. Most Americans would call this dish a taquito. A restaurant in our area calls this dish a crisp meat burrito. Be advised the locals eat lunch from 2-4, much later than Americans do, so be sure to have breakfast before going on any tours. We had a very enjoyable day.

Jose and Umberto our guides were a wealth of information and they shared the settlers here venerated mountains, considering them sacred because they believed that the rain gods, who were responsible for the harvest, lived in them. Their society was segregated into classes and was dedicated to agriculture directed by governors and priests who held ceremonies to the gods to ask for abundance of rain and seeds.
This is an archaeological site located only 60 minutes from Acapulco. The archaeological site stands out because the monumental buildings that remain are so precisely located along natural landscapean urban center made up of plazas, temples, residences for the elite and a palace. Beto and Jose provided water and energy bars during our visit, all in all highly recommended.
