About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- 80SusanD0 contributionsBest Zihau tour guide ever!Recently experienced a city tour of Zihau with Luis and it exceeded all expectations! Luis was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing rich history, local culture, and hidden gems with such passion. From walking along the vibrant markets to visiting stunning beaches, Luis made sure we saw iconic sites and lesser know spots. Luis' insights into local traditions and cuisine made the tour not only informative but deeply immersive. I highly recommend this tour to anyone seeking an authentic and unforgettable experience in Zihau!Written 10 September 2024
- 577flaviob0 contributionsDo not recommendI’m sorry but I do not recommend this trip because it’s not worth the price nor the experience. INSTEAD If you are already in Ixtapa/Acapulco area take the public transportation to Isla Bonita. The ferry fee is $100 pesos per person. The food served with this package is tasteless plus all additional on the island is expensive.Written 20 August 2024
- taral1440 contributionsIncredible!! Highly recommend!!This tour exceeded my expectations! Luis is so knowledgeable and Freddy and Balta are absolute Angels for the work they do! Every night they are out on the beach saving baby turtles. The turtles are so tiny and cute, this was a dream come true for me! There were four of us in total and we all loved it! Luis has many other tours that sound amazing and we will do next time we’re here!Written 9 August 2024
- Zep20140 contributionsReally enjoyed our half day touring the area.We finished our tour with Axel today, and it was so much fun. He treated us like family. We chatted the whole time while he showed us around Zihua and Ixtapa. My husband didn't want to walk too much, so Axel accommodated our request. It's a beautiful area. I would recommend the tour and having Axel as a tour guide.Written 7 July 2024
- Kate L0 contributionsAn Amazing DayWe had a wonderful tour! Luis is VERY friendly, kind & knowledgeable & made this an amazing day! We had so much fun & had lots of unforgettable experiences. We loved learning about the local area from Luis. The snorkeling was a blast, the food was delicious. We loved swimming in the beach. Luis made us feel very safe & welcome. What an amazing day!Written 29 June 2024
- ceusousa0 contributionsThank you for your hospitalityLuis was so amazing, forgot sometimes that he wasn't part of the group of friends. Felt right at home with him. He is so friendly and knowledgeable, very easy to get along with, treated us like friends. He really enjoys showing off Ixtapa and we felt safe having him take us around to so many activities.Written 26 June 2024
- Daydream253472361640 contributionsCelebrated my 50th birthday with my twin sister! So much fun!The bus picked us up right on time and took us to the marina where we met Pablito, our tour guide. He was so Nice and friendly and shared lots of awesome historical facts while kayaking to Los Gatos. Once we got to Los Gatos we went snorkeling and had a fantastic time and saw a ton of fish! And cool historical items under the water. Lastly we walked the beach and enjoyed a delicious lunch that was prepared. As the tour ended our questions were answered and many suggestions were given about things to do around Zihua. So fun! Definitely recommend!Written 18 June 2024
- jsV5055XA0 contributionsAmazing!!Absolutely amazing experience! Luis was an incredible guide who made us feel so safe, comfortable, and taken care of while kayaking and snorkeling. He was extremely knowledgeable and we learned so much about the animals and environment. He guided us in the water with a floating board while snorkeling and showed us so many cool things we would have never gotten to experience if we had done it alone. He also took photos and videos underwater and sent them to us which was a real treat! The kayaking was very relaxing on the calm waters and it was so lovely to see the whole bay from the ocean. We loved it so much that we booked another excursion with Luis for two days later with our friends for a snorkeling excursion to Manzanillo Bay that was breathtaking - couldn’t recommend Luis enough! It’s clear he loves what he does and the whole experience was simply priceless. Definitely the highlights of our trip.Written 5 June 2024
- 510coleen0 contributionsSnorkeling Ixtapa IslandLuis was a wonderful tour guide. He was very informative, funny and helpful. He led us on a short hike on Ixtapa island and stayed with us in the ocean while we snorkeled, telling us the names of the fish and making sure we all stayed safe. After lunch, he showed us crocodiles, iguanas and native birds in their natural habitat. He spoke excellent English and we learned a lot on the ride to and from our destination. We would definitely hire him again next time we are in Zihuatanejo!Written 24 May 2024
- deborahd9450 contributionsWonderful tour!After a day in Zihuatanejo my friend and I thought it would be a good idea to take this tour to get familiarized with the area. She had been to Ixtapa many years ago and wanted to see how it had changed. We booked the tour and had Pablo as our guide. We were so pleased with the entire morning and it gave us a great overview of the area. Pablo was a great tour guide, spoke excellent English, answered all our questions and gave us such interesting facts about both cities and the history. Best thing we did!Written 19 May 2024
- molliet5710 contributionsA genuinely perfect dayLuis was top notch! He took us to Ixtapa Island and made special stops both there and back, that made the entire experience more rich. Luis had his son by his side and the young man was the kindest and most helpful young man I’ve ever encountered in Mexico! We would recommend Luis and a day in Ixtapa Island 500 million times!Written 9 May 2024
- carrieblackwell20230 contributionsUNFORGETABLE EXPERIENCES WITH GREAT GUIDESWe visited Zihuantanejo with a large group and were lucky enough to find Luis. We had Luis take us on several excursions including the Archeology Tour, the ATV Tour, the Turtle Release, and the Snorkeling Tour. We had a great time on each one of them. We had a lot of moving pieces in our arrangements (people coming and going, signing up for excursions then changing their mind, deciding at the last minute to go on an excursion with the group, etc.). Through all of our chaos and change, Luis was accommodating and helpful. We never felt like we were inconveniencing him (though I'm sure we did at least once or twice). Luis and his employees arrived early or on time for every excursion. They offered help into and out of the vans, carried luggage, translated when needed, and so much more. They have a deep knowledge of the area and the history and have a seemingly endless list of connections. Luis's prices are excellent and we found that he provided a lot of extras that no one else could offer. We also used Luis to get us to and from the airport and his prices were exceptional there as well. By the time we left Zihuantanejo, we felt like we had made a friend for life in Luis. It made us sad to say goodbye to him and Francisco. We intend to return (hopefully soon) and, when we do, we will try all of the excursions that we didn't get to do this time. In summary, Luis made our vacation a phenomenal experience. We spent multiple days with him and enjoyed every single one of them. We will definitely look up Luis the next time we're in the area. If you're looking for excursions in Ixtapa/Zihuatanejo you will be very happy if you choose to work with Luis.Written 5 May 2024
- moez800 contributionsBike ride in paradise.We had a wonderful experience on this bicycle tour. Pablo our guide was friendly and very knowledgable about the area. We were picked up on time from our hotel by Luis. He had a selection of bikes for all sizes and in very good condition. We rode through gated communities in Ixtapa and through a lovely trail in the rain forest to Playa Linda. We stopped and enjoyed eating coconut and mangoes. Overall a great experience.Written 30 April 2024
- davecE4314DH0 contributionsFantastic way to see Zihuatanejo and the surrounding area.Pablo was a fantastic guide on a lovely day seeing around Ixtapa, Zihuatanejo and Playa Blanca. It was really good to get out of town and see some more of life in Mexico outside the most touristic spots. The coconut farm and the lunch at the beach were especially memorable. Would highly recommend.Written 25 April 2024
- I5994YYdanielled0 contributionsGreat start to your vacationWe booked this tour for our first day, which was a great idea. We got a great understanding of the city, learned about the culture and tasted delicious food along the way. Our guide Luis was so kind. Highly recommend.Written 21 April 2024

Luis and his wife Isabelle provided great service both to and from the airport and as tour guides, too. Yes, a taxi is cheaper but if you want a guide who speaks English well and an air conditioned vehicle I'd pick Luis every time. He took us to great restaurants and shopping for silver jewelry. He arranged massage and would gladly have taken us to far flung places of interest. Having a driver really makes for a stress free vacation, I highly recommend these folks!

I had asked that the 6 of us have a cold beer for the ride but he had about 18. We took him up on a fishing trip and it was fantastic. 9+foot sail fish and a 45 pound bull mahi mahi. Luis then packaged and froze the fish for us until went home. We were also picked up to go on a sunset cruise that was also a lot of fun. Always prompt and waiting for us at the end of an excursion. Awesome help as well.
Luis certainly tries as hard as anyone I've met to make sure you have the best service that anyone can provide. He also grew up there so was very informative and could answer all our questions.

Excellent. Our flight was delayed and there was no time in trying to catch our connecting flight to message Luis. But as soon as our plane landed at ZIH he messaged me to say he was waiting outside and even sent a picture of himself so we’d recognize him. Definitely relieved some of the stress of travel.

We received the names for two drivers and it wasn’t either of them. We expected to be picked up in what we received in our reservation a white van, and instead it was a red not new red compact. We were also to receive bottled water and we didn’t. We were very concerned on what was going on with safety in Mexico a concern. The driver also spoke no English even elevating our concerns. Overall a very concerning situation. Only gave a two because a driver was waiting and we got to the hotel safely.

Luis is the MOST reliable way to get to your lodgings from the airport. On our last trip to Zihua we rented a condo. My sister used a taxi instead of Luis and they were lost for over an hour. Luis is very knowledgeable about the Ixtapa/Zihua region, speaks fluent English, and will give you lots of information that is super helpful to find what you need. He will also stop at the market or anywhere else you need on the way. A very kind, family man...we ended up doing 2 of his tours (highly recommend) and used his services to take us to Troncones and back to the airport as well.

Luis de la Manza operates this airport transportation and tour guide service. I have only the best to say about Luis and his staff. They met us at the airport as they had indicated they would and waited patiently with us as our family was stuck in a long line at customs, They provided cold water for all as we drove to Ixtapa. Francisco our driver happily stopped at an ATM machine that was out of the way so we could safely withdraw some pesos. We also utilized this company for an archeology tour of an ancient pyramid site. Our driver for this trip was Pablo and you could tell he was extremely knowledgeable and enjoyed sharing his country's history with us. At the end of our trip Luis met us at our condo and drove us to the airport. He was polite and helpful with this knowledge of the area. When I ever return to Ixtapa I most certainly will use Luis de la Maza tour and transportation service. Gracias amigo!

We were delayed coming out of customs at the airport. For some reason it took over an hour beyond our pick up time. Fransisco was there to get us and we had a wonderful trip to our hotel in Ixtapa. Fransisco is a wonderful tour guide and very informative at the same time is very personable. During our trip we also booked a Zihuatanejo Food Tasting Tour with Luis' company because of our experience with Fransisco. This was an amazing and filling experience that I cannot recommend enough. We enjoyed the conversation with Fransisco which included the history and origin of each dish and as importantly the amazing food (carnitas, tacos (bbq, el pastor, and de cerdo) Mole, apporeadillo, and huitlacoche quesadillas) was completely wonderful. Make sure you do this and make sure you are hungry. Experience the authentic Zihuatanejo with an amazing guide!

Luis is an excellent guide. We used him for airport transfers, where he even took us to the mercado for groceries . We also went on the sea turtle release for a second time with his company. Always a great day. Luis is able to arrange just about anything and gladly recommended local restaurants and places to shop. Habe used him consistently over both visits to the region and will do so when we return.

We use Luis when we fly into and depart from Zihuatanejo (once or twice a year for the last 6 years). He provides efficient, friendly service and always greets you with a warm Mexico welcome and never says goodbye because he wants to see you again. I love that about him. He is a man of his word and his staff is always more than gracious and will get you where you need to go. Be sure to inquire about any tours he has available. Contact him! You will not regret it!

Luis was our driver for our entire visit to Ixtapa Zihuatanejo, starting from our airport ride to and from our hotel and continuing to outings, tours, dinner plans, etc. Sometimes you don't tend to think of your driver more than a means to get places, but Luis made each trip extra special because of his easy-going manner, superb promptness, friendliness and all around informative (he knew so much about this beautiful town) and inviting personality. By the end our trip, which ended in hugs, we all were going to miss Luis - he added to our experience and when we go back, we will request him every-time!

Hello, Do you also do airport pickups with drop offs at La Ropa in Zihuat? Also, did I read in one of your testimonials that you arrange a day fishing trip?
