    Mito, the person in charge of Lupita guided us! 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!

    I recently returned from Lupita Overland’s "Wonders of Mexico" Trip. Traveling in a specially outfitted custom van, we traveled from Mexico City to Tulum in 21 days. Lupita specializes in small group travel and they delivered an outstanding product. The quality of the driving was excellent. I always felt completely safe. I can’t imagine that any company could be better. Jaime González is a fabulous leader. His enthusiam was infectious. He was like the energizer bunny and attended to every detail of our trip. I had studied Spanish as a child, but I was completely unprepared for how important it would be to have a Spanish speaking guide.We traveled well off the tourist trail and few people we encountered spoke English. We swam in cenotes, sailed on the Lagoon in Balacar, dipped in waterfalls, and visited a number of difficult to reach Mayan ruins. There was something for everyone on the trip. Jaime was willing to accommodate all tastes.My husband and I opted out of camping entirely and took advantage of the hotel upgrades. I cannot say enough about the Lupita and Jaime. I fell in the airport in route to Mexico City, and unexpectedly arrived in a wheelchair. Due to a knee injury, I could not participate in many of the activities.Jaime bent over backwards to make sure I was included and made special accommodations so I could continue with the tour. He was endlessly patient and kind. He never once made me feel that my injury was an inconvenience, even if it was. I am a veteran of many overseas adventure travel trips across Africa and Asia. In more two decades of travel, I have experienced the good, the bad and the ugly when it comes to tours and tour leaders.I can count the outstanding tour leaders on one hand. Jaime is the best of the best. He is top notch. His attention to detail was outstanding. He brought his professionalism to every aspect of the trip. From start to finish, the trip was outstanding.

    Terry

    Asked on July 30th, 2024

    I was wondering what the age group for this tour usually is? Also what the youth/party aspect involves?

    Age Range
    Tour Details
    • LUPITA OVERLANDOperatorWritten 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.
