Susan· November 25th, 2025Recently home from the 21 night South Mexico, Day of the Dead Edition and it was an outstanding overland adventure! Our group of 10 traveled comfortably in a custom van named Lupita. Every day was a new experience with our enthusiastic and knowledgeable guides Jamie and Gustavo. From the start in the small Caribbean town of Puerto Morelos to the bustle of Mexico City, our team was always with us to ensure that each day was filled with unique experiences and activities. In addition, many of our activities along the way supported local projects and initiatives . Our accommodations in the larger cities of St. Cristobal de las Casas, Oaxaca and Mexico city were very central, only steps from the main plazas, restaurants and local events. The itinerary of our trip was extremely diverse, including archaeological ruins of the Mayan, Zapotec and Aztec cultures and the natural wonders of cenotes on the Yucatan, turtle liberation at la Ventanilla on the Pacific and Tehuacan-Cuicatlan, the world's largest cactus preserve. The highlight was the immersive Dia de los muertos celebrations in Oaxaca. Three days of parades, music and dancing celebrating life and that of the ancestors. What an experience! I would not hesitate to recommend this amazing and unforgettable journey through southern Mexico with Jaime and Lupita.Show moreLUPITA OVERLAND commented on this reviewThank you so much, Susan! ???????? Your review honestly made me smile. It was such a joy having you on this adventure — you guys brought the best energy every single day!

- RMRoger· November 17th, 2025I booked the “South Mexico Wonders, Day of the Dead Edition” with Lupita Overland Adventures. The was a 21-day adventure through several Mexican states: Quintina Roo, Yucatan, Campeche, Chiapas, Oaxaca, Puebla, and ending in Mexico City. The entire trip was by road with a small group of 10 in a van named “Lupita.” The trip organizer, Jamie and support crew, Gustavo arranged an amazing itinerary with unique and rewarding activities. Snorkeling in the beautiful Caribbean, swimming in secluded cenotes, boating and swimming in the crystal clear Bacalar lagoon, watching with awe as bats exit a sinkhole, observing the fantastic scenery and wildlife while boating in the El Sumidero Canyon, the joy of a turtle liberation on the Ventanilla beaches, a relaxing mangrove boat tour, hiking at Hierve el Agua, and the wonders of camping in Tehuacán-Cuicatlan Biosphere Reserve (the world’s largest cactus reserve). Along the way we took a deep dive into the Mexican culture with archeological stops: Chichén Itzá, Calakmul, Palenque, Monte Albán, and Teotihuacán and local community projects: Xyaat Mayan cooperative (an environmental conservation organization), Mujeres Sembrando La Vida (Women Sowing Life), and Manos Que Ven artist workshop. Last but not least, Dia de Muertos (Day of the Dead) celebration in Oaxaca! Amazing local dress, grand parade, and local neighborhood gatherings. There is nothing else like it! It was an amazing adventure. Jamie and Gustavo were exceptional at leading the group and ensuring everyone got the most out of their journey. I highly recommend Lupita Overland Adventures and the team of Jamie Gonzalez and Gustavo Pech.Show moreLUPITA OVERLAND commented on this reviewThanks, Thanks, thanks so much for your amazing review, Roger.

- GSGuy· November 12th, 2025Lupita’s: South Mexico Wonders, Day of the Dead Edition (2025) Our overland journey with Lupita was nothing short of extraordinary. From start to finish, it was an adventure every single day, filled with colour, culture, and connection. Our tour leaders, Jaime and Gustavo, were exemplary in every way; knowledgeable, attentive, and endlessly enthusiastic. Jaime’s excellent communication and management skills kept everything running smoothly, while both guides made sure every traveler felt included, comfortable, safe and well taken care of. Each day brought wonderful sites and awesome activities, from ancient ruins to vibrant markets and charming colonial towns. The fantastic hotel locations were memorable, offering a comfortable mix of local flavour and relaxation after full days of exploration. One of the best parts was traveling with like-minded adventures who shared the same curiosity and spirit of discovery. Together we enjoyed authentic experiences that revealed the true heart of southern Mexico. The local guides added tremendous depth to our understanding of each destination, and the meals from street food to elegant dinners, were truly memorable. Of course, the highlight was the Day of the Dead celebrations in Oaxaca, a spectacular, fascinating, emotional, and unforgettable experience that captured the essence of Mexico’s vibrant traditions. For those adventurous travelers who need to check off their bucket list some amazing destinations this IS the trip for you. Chichen Itzá, Calakmul, Palenque, San Cristóbal de las Casas, San Juan Chamula, El Sumidero Canyon, Oaxaca: Day of the Dead, Monte Albán, Teotihuacán, Frida Kahlo’s house and the Xochimilco channels to name but a few. Every moment felt thoughtfully curated and full of meaning, with a strong emphasis on supporting local projects and businesses. Lupita Overland delivered not just a tour, but an unforgettable adventure that will stay with us for years to come. Highly recommended for anyone who loves authentic travel, cultural immersion, and a touch of adventure.Show moreLUPITA OVERLAND commented on this reviewThanks so much for your amazing review, amig@s Guy and Reeka.

She dedicated time and effort to do an excellent job in recommending the best options in Mexico. You can tell that Lupita is interested in giving the best advice beyond the typical touristic. This is the added value that is so difficult to find in packaged services that do not personalize. A pleasure to have been served by Lupita/Mito and lucky for the clients who find him!Show moreLUPITA OVERLAND commented on this reviewA thousand thanks for your message, Marta!

Asked on July 30th, 2024I was wondering what the age group for this tour usually is? Also what the youth/party aspect involves?
- LUPITA OVERLANDOperator•Written July 2024
Our travellers have ranged in age from 30 to 75, with an average age of around 47. For our Day of the Dead Tours, we expect a younger crowd since the tour includes some interesting party opportunities. While the amount of partying depends on the group's vibe, there's always time and advice on when and where to enjoy a good night out. The atmosphere in Mexico is great for meeting people and having fun, and you're likely to have at least 2-4 nights where partying is an option.
