Great sites to see in Alcopolco - We asked to go to the market and skip the divers because we had accidentally double booked the divers. However with that unexpected turn our guide was very flexible and courteous. Felt very safe. Enjoyed walking through the town and experiencing downtown market. The San Diego Fort was well kept and such a blessing to see. Our guide Mario was well informed in the history of Guerrero and of Mexico. The Chapel was smaller than i thought but the great artworks and mosaics made up for any doubts of size, and its still very active especially during this Easter holiday. I would highly recommend this for adults and teens. Walking would be too much for littles.

History lesson with Culture thrown in! - The Ft. San Diego was closed due to covid but our two tour guides made up for it by taking us up into some areas of town that many tourists don't see including showing us Diego Riveres House. Beautiful vista views. Took us to Centro Market and walked us through parts of it, to the main plaza and church and different areas of interest. And of course the Cliff Divers show was spectacular! Our guides both were very knowledgeable on Mexican history also!
Very good lunch and nice restaurant on the beach.
My son and I both enjoyed our tour very much.

A GREAT TOUR!!!! - This is one of the best tours I've ever experienced in a foreign country. Thinking back on it, I can't quite believe everything we covered in four hours and it was not a bit rushed! We saw all sections of the city and Rudy very generous with his knowledge of history of Mexico/Acapulco as well as current government, education system, etc. Visited the Mexican market, historical fort, Pink Flamingo Hotel, divers, and then some! Rudy also provided a video of our tour on YouTube and sent pictures!!!! This was the highlight of my week in Acapulco. THANK YOU, Rudy!

Great Old Town Experience - Very nice tour guides that were very knowledgeable on Mexicos history. We were unable to see Ft. San Diego because of covid but guides added other points of interest to our tour.
We were taken up high over the city for some spectacular views of the city, to Diego Riveres house, to Centro Market, Main Plaza and of course the Cliff Divers. We stopped several times to get out and enjoy what we were seeing-while one guide parked the car, the other always stayed with us to show us around. Very nice lunch at nice authentic restaurant.
My son and I really enjoyed the day.
