The Magical Butterfly Tour - We had a wonderful tour. Ulysses organized events & excursions for us each day. We especially enjoyed seeing the Monarch Butterflies & our time spent in central historic Morelia. Traveling in the van was comfortable & we enjoyed getting to know & spend time with the two other couples on the tour. The places Ulysses arranged for us to eat at were so different & provided a culinary cultural experience. The butterflies were breathtaking & magical.

Butterfly tour. - Great experience with wonderful hosts/guides. Jennifer and Ram did an amazing job and made everyone feel welcome and part of the group, right from the start, ok you guys we are a family. Very interesting stops along the way with authentic local food. Very busy full days and many, many steps but good times were had by all. We were all happy to see the end of the day, but in a good way. Interesting towns and a hike up to see the butterflies at over 10,000 feet was well worth the trek. Job well done Jennifer and Ram, we would do this again.

Visit Fairyland - Visiting smaller towns and meeting local people, and tasting local cuisine is a special experience worth the time and expense.
Ulises is a fun and knowledgeable guide. You will love the personal touch he brings to the trip. The monarchs were like visiting the land of fairies. Don’t miss it. ❤️

Monarch butterfly 3 day tour - An excellent trip - the butterfly sanctuary is a must and is an awesome site. The tour of the cities and towns along the way give you a real flavour of Mexico and its colonial past. Ulises was an amazing guide and looked after our every need. Totally safe and enjoyable.
I would highly recommend Ulises and his company.

Fantastic 3 day tour of Monarch butterflies in Michoacan. - We had a wonderful trip to see the Monarch butterflies. Ulisses is a great tour guide and told us lots of interesting information and showed us great things during the trip On the way there we stopped in the town of Patzuaro and was so impressed with the old Spanish architecture and town. We then went to Santa Clara del Cobre(Copper town) and visited a family (grandfather, son, and grandson)business of creating wonderful things out of copper. I bought several things for Christmas gifts. We then went to Morelia and what a beautiful city. The basilica is gorgeous and the market and candy market were fun. At last we went to the Monarch butterflies and it did not disappoint. I took a horse up the mountain and it was fun and lots of nice scenery. Once at the top we needed to walk/climb up to the butterflies. One of the tour guides Fabian stayed with me and assisted me up the climb. He was so helpful and caring and such an asset to the tour. His english is excellent! All in All it was a great trip. I highly recommend!

Ketavi tours was great! - Our trip to Morelia with Ketavi tours, Ulysses, Fabien, and George was perfect. The days are long but worth it.
We stayed 2 nights in Morelia, went to the butterfly sanctuary, had lunch at some wonderful places, made stops in Patzcuaro where we shopped and Santa Clara. In Santa Clara we stopped at a family run, 5th generation copper crafting home. We saw how copper cups and other items are made then shopped their wares right then and there. Fantastic experience.
I would definitely use Ketavi Tours again.
Thank you Ulysses!

Amazing Ketavi tour - Ulises provides a unique experience due in part to his personal background. He has extensive knowledge of the culture of Mexico and utilizes this. to provide information and activities that make the tour truly fantastic. He has a passion for providing clients with insights into authentic and historic Mexican culture by utilizing personal connections with indigenous people and artisans.
This tour visited Santa Clara del Cobre where we toured a small copper factory and watched artisans individually handcraft beautiful copper items. The Butterfly Sanctuary in El Rosario was truly amazing! Thousands of Monarch butterflies everywhere, clustered on branches, flying around you. The magnitude was so great that when you stopped and listened, you could actually hear the butterflies' wings beats.
Ketavi tours was recommended to us by several friends and we were amazed and thrilled with our tour.

Not What I Expected - The staff was courteous, and in particular, the driver did an excellent job navigating the highways. The copper factory was a small shop at the back of a family home. They sold various crafts at the end of the demonstration but we were not given time to explore the town or visit the many copper stores that displayed finer merchandise. The hotel was adequate with a good breakfast but the rooms included in the tour did not have windows to the outside. Fortunately it was just a place to sleep. Morelia is a beautiful city but too little time was devoted to it. The van we travelled in was too cramped for such a long journey. Check the weather before travelling as you might not see any monarchs if the weather is cold and-or overcast.
