Frequently Asked Questions
If two have twin beds in one room and one has single bed in another room, what will be the rate of the single room for the whole tour? Please also confirm whether the tour will start at Mexico city and end at Oaxaca.
The cost for the single supplement would be an additional USD 419. The Tour Starts in Mexico City and ends in Oaxaca.
I want a private room but it's not letting me book a private room. Also, after we finish in Oaxaca how do I get to the airport to fly to Cancun and visit Chichen Itza?
The August 15 date will be On Request. Which is why you wouldn't be able to add your own room. What does on Request mean? G Adventures has a certain number of rooms and services that are allocated toward every single departure for the groups we book. When we are within our late request period, it means we have released the spaces we are holding for the group back to our suppliers, because we didn't fill the space as anticipated to avoid a penalty. This allows the hotels/services to sell the space to other operators/agents/individuals as requested. In order to request confirmation of the below tour(s), G Adventures processes the full payment and sends the request to our local office to try and add you to the departure(s). It generally takes 2-4 business days to receive a response, If space is available, you will be booked and confirmed on the tour(s), if space is not available, then we can look at alternative tours, dates, or will issue a full refund if nothing else works for you. We recommend holding off on arranging flights and travel insurance until the trip is confirmed, as there are often cancellation/change penalties. We offer airport transfers to help you get to and from the airports.
Is chichen itza paer of this tour?
No, Chichén Itzá is not included on the Mexico City to Oaxaca: Pottery & Aztec Pyramids tour. This itinerary focuses on central and southern Mexico, including destinations such as Mexico City, Puebla, Oaxaca, and archaeological sites like Teotihuacán and Monte Albán. Chichén Itzá is located on the Yucatán Peninsula, so it isn't part of this itinerary. If visiting Chichén Itzá is a priority, we'd be happy to recommend one of our tours that includes the Yucatán region.
What time is the meet your CEO meeting? And what time can we check into the hotel?
The hotel check in time is at 3:00 PM. The welcome meeting with the CEO is usually planned to be between 5-7pm. There will be a note at the reception with more details upon arrival.
are Day 1 and Day 2 both free days? What time do we meet group on Day 1?
Upon arrival to your Joining Hotel, look for a note or bulletin board in the reception with a note from your CEO. This note will give the details of your Welcome Meeting on day 1 (usually between 5pm and 7pm), where you will get a chance to meet your CEO and other travellers, as well as learn more about how the tour will run
i would like to book 2 extra nights pre-tour Aug 28 & Aug 29. Is this possible and what price/hotel?
We can request the pre-accommodation for AUD140.00 per room per night at the same hotel as the start hotel. Please note, the pre-accommodation together with the tour is on request.
Is there transportation available from Oaxaca back to Mexico City? Airfare is better if we left from Mexico City.
We only offer transportation back to Oaxaca airport. You can catch an internal flight from there back to Mexico City, or travel over land but we would generally advise the flight.
There are 3 excursions in one day for some of the days listed. Is this a choice that we have to pick one excursion to go to, or is all the excursions what the whole day looks like? In regards to attending excursions that are not listed on the itinerary, is it possible to do on our own and wander away from the group?
The option extras listed are just some suggestions on what you can do in your free time. You can choose to do one or more of these activities in the same day if time permits. Your tour CEO would be the best person to talk to at the welcome meeting on day 1 of the trip
how do you get back from oaxaca to mexico city and what is the price of taxis or flights etc? I find it frustrating that this trip doesn't go back to mexico.
If you plan to spend some extra in Mexico City after this tour ends in Oaxaca you can book a flight or transfer back to Mexico City. Flights are about $200 per person. If you take a bus the price ranges from $40 to $85. Shuttles are also an option and this can cost about $500. As this tour does end in Oaxaca transfer back to Mexico City do need to be booked direct with an airline or transfer company.
Are there any accommodations for solo travelers?
Solo travelers will be paired with another solo traveler of the same gender unless a single supplement is requested.
