Amazing experience - We did the tour of Arco del Tiempo with Ramon and he was the perfect guide! Super patient and professional, he was always there for us. It was an amazing experience, even the camp itself and the food was great. We had the arco pretty much for ourselves and it is one of those experiences you remember for life

A unique experience! - Definitely one of the best experiences I've ever had! The place is stunning, there are no photos that really show its beauty. The Jungla Experience team is very professional and they make sure at all times that the tour takes place in a safe, fun and comfortable way. They provide you with all the necessary equipment to perform the activities during the journey to the arch. It was my first time camping and I enjoyed it too much, it was super comfortable, the food delicious and we were served super well! I recommend it 100%!!

The Best Camp in Mexico! - It was a very complete experience, the punctuality of the guides, the personalized attention, the food always on time, the equipment and very detailed explanations, the comfort of the tents, the inflatable mattresses, everything very organized. The arch of time is a magical place and it takes committed people to enjoy it and make the experience unforgettable, I highly recommend it, I went in December 2025 and loved it is certainly something I will repeat and invite more people to share this place!

An unparalleled experience. - The best way to start my year, with an adventure trip with my sister. An experience full of adrenaline, walking, admiration for nature and especially a great reward after the great walk, a bath in cold water and the majestic arc of time. I loved the experience and would definitely do it again.

Bad experience - Although we know that it is very difficult to predict meteorological issues and it is a factor that is often out of our reach, I think that we should have a little more sensitivity in the matter of choosing to reschedule the dates (Discussing it with several people from the Lazaro Cardenas community told me that generally you can have knowledge two days before) My trip was to the arc of time. Due to the heavy rain we had an accident with a flat tire because it was impossible for the guide to see the road properly. Arriving at Lazaro Cardenas, they told us that camping was not viable having to do the entire route in one day. It should be noted that my companion had asked if it was viable for her to do this activity, and the answer was positive (she has already traveled with you). Similarly, there was another person in the group who was obviously overweight and who had commented that she did not exercise in absolute. This seems very dangerous to me since the 16 km walk was very challenging so we had many difficulties that I will list below 1.- Due to the different abilities the group separated 2.- The people mentioned above did not have the opportunity to even see the arch due to the conditions, the path and difficulty. One even suffered a drop in blood pressure, dizziness and nausea. 3.- We literally arrived at the arch, we spent 5 minutes in the distance and returned another 8 km 4.- Due to the difficulty and decision to do the route in one day, we arrived at the camp at 8 at night, doing part of the walk in the dark (we were not notified and we did not have lamps) 5.- When we left at 10 am and returned at 8 pm we couldn't eat anything on the way, other than the snacks that we brought. 6.- Upon seeing the situation and arriving at the point where they could pick us up, motorcycles driven by 13-year-old children picked us up. When contacted due to these inconveniences later this was the response (ignore).
