Testimonials

Steven Cockriel

Wonderful, attentive and responsive Travel Agency based in Mexico. My wife and I booked a 10-day trip to Oaxaca, Mexico with Journey Mexico. They were very helpful and responsive during the planning stage. Followed up to make sure we were ready for the trip and assigned a travel assistant to assist during our trip. She was always just a text message away – 24/7. Very helpful. We had an issue come up during the trip, and she immediately responded and did everything possible to solve the problem. Highly recommend this group – we will use them any time we are traveling in Mexico.

What an absolutely wonderful company. We have just spent 2 weeks touring in Mexico (Mexico City, Puebla, Oaxaca and Huatulco) and simply could not have asked for better guides, drivers or behind the scenes support. Amalia C saved us numerous times and made our travel seamless. I would recommend Journey Mexico to everyone and will absolutely use them on our next visit.

Janet Zinn

Journey Mexico created a dream vacation. Their recommendations are spot on. And, they made sure all our requests came to fruition. I can’t recommend them enough. And, I look forward to my next trip with Journey Mexico.

Journey Mexico planned a wonderful anniversary trip for us. Zach and his team really know the best spots in Mexico. They were there with ideas and support throughout the trip. Fantastic and super responsive. Highly recommend.

Ashley Parker

We worked with Journey Mexico on our recent trip to Merida. Everyone that we encountered was phenomenal, from our travel assistant Jesús, to our driver Sergio, to our tour guide Angel. They worked hard to make sure that our trip was all that we wanted it to be, and it was perfect! I highly recommend!
