My son is taking a gap year during high school to immerse himself in a bit of Spanish language and culture and the folks at ASLI have been extremely accommodating in creating a custom course for him. He really likes his teachers and the homestays are with very nice, Spanish-speaking families.

Robert Brady's house is an absolute MUST if you are in Cuernavaca . It was an unexpected delight and a fantastic eclectic collection of his treasures beautifully and colourfully displayed. Each room is a delight and a surprise and there are excellent notes in English in every room explaining the paintings and collection.

5. Palacio de Cortes

4.5 based on 618 reviews
On September 19, 2017, a powerful earthquake rocked the region and damaged the building's clock, which has since been removed. At the time of writing the Palacio was to remain closed to the public for at least a year, for damage assessment and reparations. Check ahead to ensure that it is open again, or simply enjoy the building's facade. This 16th-century fort once served as the palace and home of Hernán Cortés and includes a collection of Diego Rivera murals. TEMPORARILY CLOSE FOR RENOVATION

After visiting over the years many archaeological sites of different cultures in Mexico, it's always a pleasure to return to Xochicalco (pronounced 'Sotchycalco') located about half an hour's drive south of the city of Cuernavaca, in the State of Morelos. What makes this site quite unique among others is its location on a large hill that overlooks an open valley where the hill itself is an integral part of the archaelogical site. There are a number of platforms distributed at different levels of the hill that hold either a ceremonial center, the remains of living quarters, or the ancient ball courts. At the top is the temple dedicated to Quetzalcoatl, the feathered serpent, with bas-reliefs sculptured on all four walls of the ceremonial center. It's fun to climb the various wide staircases leading from one level to another, stop at each and enjoy the view of varying landscapes, which may include trees, agaves, and other assorted greenery. You can descend the archeological zone from the opposite side you entered, so there's no need to backtrack on your visit. Xochicalco reached its heigth around 1,000 AD when the Toltecs were the dominant culture in Mexico's central valley, although it would be a far-out generalization to name the city-state's inhabitants 'Toltecs'. They were skilled merchants and traded with distant civilizations in all cardinal directions, including the Mayans in the now far away Yucatan, the Zapotecs and Mixtecs to the south in the present State of Oaxaca, as well as the various cultures in the central valley of Mexico (now Mexico City) or the Gulf Coast. To start your visit of Xochicalco, don't miss the not-too-long exhibits, maps, and explanations in the welcoming pavilion at the entrance to the archaeological zone. It will make your visit that much more rewarding. Enjoy!

Wow. I yhought we were reasonably fit, but had to search for my breath on the way up. Stopped a number of times, and wasn't sure I was going to make it. It was all worth the effort, but my legs were sore for days after. Tip: take cash up with you as it costs (55 pesos each the day we were there) to enter the pyramid area at the top of the climb.

If you (and your kids) need a nearby green getaway, this is the place. The park had trails, rivers, play equipment as well as an aviary and a butterfly garden. You can rent a pedal boat at the lake, take a little train ride or just walk to your heart’s content. We went on a Saturday and we’re lucky enough to find the Mercado Verde, or the healthy green market with lots of vendors selling food and goods. You won’t find many tourists here as it is I’ve been removed from the colonial core of Cuernavaca. But it’s a cheap taxi or Uber ride and definitely worth a visit if you have a bit of spare time.

We went to Zoofari as a COVID friendly experience since you can be in the car all the time. This was excellent. We had a lot of fun and seeing all the animals and feeding them is great for kids. Our car unfortunately broke down during our trip and the staff at Zoofari were not only helpful but also went above and beyond for us to be able to still enjoy our experience there. They help us try to jump start the car, they took us to other parts of the zoo so my nephew would not get restless and they were so professional and helpful with the best attitude. A special thanks to Mr. Luis Carrillo who made sure we were ok at all times. Thank you zoofari. We will be back to finish enjoying everything!
