    We went on an excursion to Xochicalco and to Taxco. It was a lot of driving, but well worth it. Our guide, Daniel, was excellent. He was engaging and personable. Since some in our group spoke Spanish and others did not, he switched back and forth easily from English to Spanish. He also adjusted his comments for those who knew very little about Mexico and those of us who knew quite a bit. He was knowledgeable, but unlike other guides who often just make things up, he was open about what was speculation, and if he didn't know something, he was honest about that as well, which we respected. I highly recommend Daniel as a guide. The Xochicalco archaeological site is excellent, with a small but good museum and the Pyramid of Quetzalcóatl and the ballcourts. It was a hot day and there was a lot of uphill climbing, but the views were worth it. It is not a well-known site, and there were very few people there, unlike other touristy places like Teotihuacán. Taxco, of course, is a jewel, and the views of the city, along with the Santa Prisca church, are a must-see. The price of the tour was reasonable, and Daniel let us stay longer than the contracted period of time; he was patient and understanding.
