I mentioned a while ago that we had found a guide. Or my student had. Ironically, it's the same company I found, HGMexico, but the bargain price of 750 pesos turned out to be too good to be true! That's for a single day walking around the mountain, not up it! The real price is 1,500 pesos, although it has to be added this price is for Mexicans. I am assuming that I will be granted honorary Mexican status for the trip, seeing as I am going with 5 or 6 real Mexicans and I do live here!
One good reason to hire a guide is to avoid the situation below....
