Teotihuacan and La Gruta Tour Infant Tickets
Are full-price infant and child tickets for Teotihuacan tours standard practice? I'm bringing a six-month-old and a two-year-old, and the cost seems excessive. Any advice?
Six months and two years old? Ouch, yeah, those tour prices can be brutal, especially with little ones who don't exactly contribute to the "sightseeing experience." Have you considered skipping the organized tour entirely? Renting a car and driving yourselves (allowing for plenty of stops and diaper changes!) might be significantly cheaper, even factoring in gas and parking. Teotihuacan is pretty straightforward to navigate, and you can find plenty of local guides offering more affordable, personalized experiences once you arrive. Just be sure to check car seat laws in Mexico before you go.
That's a great suggestion! We hadn't thought about skipping the structured tour. The car rental idea, with the flexibility for breaks, definitely appeals to us more than trying to herd toddlers on a crowded bus. Finding a local guide on-site sounds like a good compromise too - potentially less expensive and more tailored to our needs. Thanks for that!
Finding a Trainer in Coyoacán
My partner's starting Spanish classes at Cepe and needs an English-speaking, trans-friendly personal trainer in Coyoacán or nearby. Google wasn't much help; any suggestions? Word-of-mouth recommenda… more
Try checking out the gyms near Cepe. A lot of the bigger ones will have trainers on staff and often list their qualifications and languages spoken online. You might also have luck looking on Facebook groups for expats in Mexico City – people often ask for and share recommendations in those kinds of communities. Good luck!
That's actually really helpful, thanks! I hadn't thought of checking expat groups on Facebook. Cepe is pretty central, so that makes sense to start there too. Fingers crossed I find someone who speaks English, my Spanish is... well, let's just say it's a work in progress! 😅
