I had an excellent time with Fernando. My first time seeing Paricutin Volcano and the ruins of San Juan Parangaricutiro are a memory I will never forget. Fernando was great at being patient and telling me about the history of the volcano and the town of San Juan Parangaricutiro. I also really enjoyed the beautiful Barranca del Cupatitzio National Park in Uruapan -- it was incredible that such a beautiful park was in the middle of the city. Overall, I highly recommend this tour if you're trying to see the volcano, the church, and the national park in the same day.William_N

I had the Paricutin tour with Alfredo, and it was everything I could have asked for. I was traveling solo, I don’t speak Spanish, and I didn’t know anything about the area so I was a little apprehensive. But Alfredo was incredibly responsive, and he helped to put my concerns at ease. As our tour began he took the time to understand what was important for me about the tour, and altered our tour to maximize what I was interested in. He knew all the best spots, and he had all the best connections in order to create an unforgettable day. Paricutin was a bucket list trip for me, and Alfredo helped it do be everything I ever dreamed of. All I had to do was to show up, and Alfredo took care of the rest. He anticipated my every need. I cannot recommend Alfredo’s tours highly enough.H2022HWjonathanv
