What our guests say
Don't take our word for it. Here's what travelers say about Explora Latin America.
"Sid and Chris are passionate and knowledgeable about butterflies and Mexican culture, and led our wonderfully organized tour with attention to detail, enthusiasm, and above all humor. Explora made the tour 'mucha' fun and connected our disparate group of strangers into 'compadres'. You won't regret it!"
"Our group of 12 just returned from a fabulous time in Mexico City and the butterfly reserves. The highlight was hiking and horseback riding to mingle with the Monarchs - such a magical experience! Our guides Sid and Chris were wonderful throughout. I'll definitely miss the street tacos and chicken mole!"
"Chris and Hugo took excellent care of us, providing extended knowledge of both the monarchs and the rich art and museums of Mexico City. Chris and Sid went above and beyond to ensure our safety and maximize our Mexican experience. Can't recommend this boutique company enough - WOW!!"
"This was my second Explora trip with Chris and Sid, and it was awesome! They put together a wonderful itinerary - time in Puebla and the bulk of it in Oaxaca, where the excitement grew each night as the festivities built to a crescendo. Chris and Sid are heartfelt guides — they truly love sharing this wonderful country with others."
