Booked a one day tour of Veracruz and surrounding area for our first trip to Veracruz. Rafael was a terrific guide and driver, and we saw and learned a lot in a short time. It allowed us to take note of the places we wanted to revisit on foot later in the week. I can recommend tour, and the tour company

This is a good activity to do if you like coffee and are in Coatepec. It is located right outside of the town, about 8 minutes away. They offer guided tours with an explanation about how coffee is grown, processed and commercialized. At first, they show you a movie about Coffee, It is very interesting, however, I wished they had a bigger screen and that it was louder, because the museum sits right next to the highway, so every time a big truck goes by, it gets so noisy you can’t hear anything. And because of the coffee and sugar plantations in the area, those big trucks drive by constantly. After the movie, they take you on the tour, where you go outside to see the coffee plants, then the grains, how they dry them, and toast them and the whole process. Our guide was excellent and she answered all our questions. We learnt all about coffee. At the end of the tour, she offered everyone a coffee, which was delicious, even my kids got to try coffee with their Lechero version. It was awesome because my oldest actually liked it! We really enjoyed the museum, drinking coffee and exploring around. Highly recommend it.

This is a must when you are visiting Veracruz City. Place is clean, neat and it is good to spend a full day of fun. Prices are reasonable and it is better you can buy your tickets through Web Page. Strong advantages: It is clean, you feel safe, staff is dedicated and it is great for small children (they can have non stop playing time for hours and hours) Good points: Food is good and prices are reasonable. Point to improve: You can have a private dresser room, however we got one and it was flooded (it seems day before city had strong storm) It is better you visit this park on week days (weekends must be crowded) Highly recommended to spend good time with family and friends
