Reviews

As always, I had a great time as this was my second trip with Alma. Everything was first rate, from the food, hotel and tours.
By Lance A for Embrace the Magic: Day of the Dead in Morelia, Mexico on Nov 12, 2024
Our trip to Guadalajara m and Tequila was amazing. I learned so much about Tequila and cultural history about both cities. Loved that we also got to partake in some spa R&R in both places.
