- ARyan T· September 18th, 2019I truly felt that I saw the 'real' Mexico on this trip. It exceeded my expectations in terms of activities, accommodation and understanding/learning the Mexican culture. It helped having Adrianna as a great tour guide, knowing the ins and outs of the cities as well as hidden gems for good food!Show moreTrip date: January 2019
- ACharlotte R· September 18th, 2019Brilliant experience- we booked through TrekAmerica which we found werent that helpful as a booking agent, the information on their website was not as up-to-date as the intrepid site.Show moreTrip date: January 2019
- AWancan S· September 18th, 2019The arrangements are very nice, got to see a lot of cool stuff and had amazing experiences. Tour guide is super responsible, helpful, chill and funShow moreTrip date: December 2018
- AMichael J· September 18th, 2019The tour is structured very well with heaps of flexibility, yet it hits all the must-see attractions. Pilar our guide was amazing and her help alone is worth going on the tour for.Show moreTrip date: December 2018
- AAlysha D· September 18th, 2019The guide was amazing, places were amazing, plenty to do and see and eatShow moreTrip date: December 2018
- MMadeleineOsborne· September 18th, 2019This was a fun, well-paced and excellently organised trip! Pilar was an outstanding tour leader with so much knowledge and passion to share. The group was comprised of wonderful, like-minded travellers which meant everyone got along really well. I certainly cherish the friends I made and the experiences I had on this trip.Show moreTrip date: August 2019
- SMSureesha· September 15th, 2019My tour was fantastic! Our guide Pilar was incredibly personable, friendly and knowledgeable. The Under 29s tour meant that most of us were solo travellers looking to meet people which resulted in us making some really great friends along the way! The Basix tour allowed us flexibility with day-to-day activities and food which made the trip even better. My Mexico trip made easy and stress-free - would definitely recommend!Show moreTrip date: August 2019

Asked on January 8th, 2022are all itineraies in this tour recommended or suitable for healthy 60 yrs old couples?
- Intrepid TravelOperator•Written January 2022
Our Real Mexico trip is an 18-29's itinerary, so that specific trip would not be a great fit! However, we do have a very similar itinerary called Mexico Unplugged, I have attached the trip notes for that tour for you. I do not see anything in the itinerary that you wouldn't be able to enjoy.
