      Is the guide speak french too?

      Do you organize the internal flight that is not included?

    • G AdventuresOperatorWritten March 2026

      There are no transfers included with this trip, so you would need to make your way to the start hotel on day 1 of the trip

    Age Range
    Tour Details
    • G AdventuresOperatorWritten October 2025

      This tour does not go to Sumidero Canyon. This is based in San Cristóbal de Las Casas so the tour would need to go here in order for it to be an optional extra.

    Tour Details
    • G AdventuresOperatorWritten August 2025

      The number of km's covered each day is not something we keep track of, this can be different depending on how long we are out for each day. The full itinerary will state the activities we do each day. Transfers are not included but you can add these on for an extra cost.

    Veronica

    Asked on August 12th, 2025

    Who provides transportation to & from these optional locations? What is the maximum group size? Is a large bus used? How often are toilet stops planned?

    Group size
    Transport
    • G AdventuresOperatorWritten August 2025

      For the optional tours as there are different suppliers for these and typically it would be a private shuttle van that picks you up at the hotel and drops you off. The tour leader in destination would assist with these specific questions depending on the activity. The Maximum group size for the tour is 16 (for optional activities this could really vary). Within the tour details description here is information on the transportation used for the tour: The majority of the transportation will be via first class buses. While efficient and comfortable, these buses tend to be over air-conditioned. to ensure a comfortable journey, we recommend that our travellers bring an extra layer to cover up including socks onto these buses. For bathroom breaks on longer travel days they would stop every couple of hours (or if you require a stop earlier then you would just let the tour leader know and they can assist).

      Belinda

      TravelerWritten April 2025

      please can you advise when your next sale is going to happen?

    • G AdventuresOperatorWritten April 2025

      Our sales are usually ongoing, month to month - they often cover different regions / continents, or times of the year. This particular tour may not go on sale in the future, sadly we are not given any advance notice of this, so if you do want to wait for a specific date to go on sale it would just be a case of checking at the start of each month. That being said, we offer small group tours so the tour could have become full by the time it does go on sale so it is generally best to book in advance to avoid disappointment.

      1. What airline do you use to fly from Oaxaca to Villahermosa? 2. Is there a similar tour that does not require flying? 3. How many people are generally on the tour?

    • G AdventuresOperatorWritten February 2025

      The internal flights are with Aeromexico. The maximum group size for our tours is 16 with an average of 12 travellers.

      Larry

      TravelerWritten March 2025

      Since I am a solo traveler, I was wondering if I would receive my own room or if I would have to share a room with another traveler on this tour.

    • G AdventuresOperatorWritten March 2025

      As a solo traveller you will share a room with another traveller on the tour who is the same gender as yourself. However, there is an option to have your own room with an additional price of $1219.
