It's incredible all the beauty in Mexico and not very many know it or appreciate it.

There is a LOT to do in the city and around, you will definitely not be bored! Enjoy your visit when you decide to go!

[@DanaLoCascio2015]

Sunset spot was well worth it! And the butterfly sanctuary looks like a dream!

[@LukeGeeTravels]

The butterfly was one of the backup plans and after visiting, I highly recommend anyone to visit! It’s something you can’t really experience elsewhere!

[@SAULALONSOWORLDWIDE]

I love my city!! God may bless us all here!!

[@LukeGeeTravels]

Absolutely fantastic! My friend who lives nearby recommended it to me, I wish I had planned to spend more time in Valle de Bravo!

[@apaulatauiliili7025]

Wow i heard there is a volcano there❤😊 i really want to visit valle de bravo 😊

[@LukeGeeTravels]

There is! Nevado de Toluca. Unfortunately, I visited during covid so it was closed for hiking :/

[@MexicoRelocationGuide]

Thanks for the video. Haggling isn’t a thing in Mexico anymore - FYI 😀

[@LukeGeeTravels]

Thank you for watching and thank you for the tip! I will know for the future!

[@LozsLeisure]

Mexico looks dope dude! Like the little location in the corner too 😊 those views were well worth it and the tee is awesome!!!

[@LukeGeeTravels]

That's the beauty of going away from the popular destinations, not a single tourist in SIGHT! I need to make more of those t-shirts, when I have MONEY :D

[@AndriiZhulidov]

Good job! Keep working on your videos! Just found your channel as I was exploring things to see in Toluca.

[@LukeGeeTravels]

Happy to hear you found me! Hope you find the information useful! Welcome aboard!

[@kippsguitar6539]

No, the air gets thinner the higher you go, beautiful video

[@LukeGeeTravels]

You're right! Sometimes I don't realize it until I watch the video the kind of blunders I say. Thank you so much for watching!

[@kippsguitar6539]

[@christiantessari]

Im From Valle de Bravo I live in Austin TX

[@LukeGeeTravels]

It’s beautiful! I wanted to see Nevado de Toluca but it was closed, my friend recommended Valle de Bravo - so happy I went!

[@dalemyers6184]

I moved from Austin a year ago! Considering different areas in Mexico for a holistic healing house, grow my own fruits and veggies. Curious what you might know about Valle de Bravo. Considering Cuernavaca for a few reasons but open to ideas.

[@LukeGeeTravels]

@@dalemyers6184 personally, I think Valle de Bravo is greatt, surrounded by nature. The town itself is very charming I loved it surrounded by hills around and a beautiful lake! The lake is a popular weekend destination where people come go hang out, boat. I think it would be a great place to buy a small piece of land. Don’t know much about Cuernavaca other than it’s surrounded by many National Parks which, if you’re into hiking/outdoors could be a draw:)

[@ranthony]

Always have a plan B!

[@LukeGeeTravels]

You know I always do! It has saved me few times already😅

[@andreww3621]

Great video dude! Im planning on taking a trip here next week after I fly into CDMX. What month were you here?

[@LukeGeeTravels]

Thanks Andrew! I was there second half of November! Awesome place that was recommended to me by a local friend. Let me know if you need anything else

[@centeno2254]

Five pesos is roughly 25 cents. I pay many times more than that to enter some state parks.

[@LukeGeeTravels]

I know what you mean! Mexico is all around a great bargain! Great food for, great accomodations all for relative low price (for us with USD)

[@centeno2254]

It's not quite that sellers are trying to rip you off just because you are a tourist in particular. Well, these are barter cultures and rather than a set price, the final price is that point that is what the customer will pay and the seller will agree to sell at. Think of it as that market clearing point where supply meets demand if you remember your freshman economics. The fact that you are a tourist just means you are at a particular disadvantage in the game. So you are disadvantaged by knowledge/experience. However, the. tourist is also advantaged by the fact that s/he comes into the game with a great exchange rate. So no whining. You generally win in the end.

[@LukeGeeTravels]

No whining at all, you’re correct! My point was that people should understand that you should almost always bargain on souvenirs or other things to get price you’re willing to pay and the seller is willing to agree on! I know that in middle eastern countries, they almost expect you to haggle with them, I enjoy it😁

[@samantarosas93]

@@LukeGeeTravels I agree, I don't think it's good to encourage haggling but I see it as, if you convert it to your currency and it is a fair price, don't haggle because those 20 pesos won't make a huge difference to you but it will to them.

[@LukeGeeTravels]

@@samantarosas93 I wouldn't haggle over 20 pesos, but a souvenir that someone wanted to charge me say $40 dollars and I end up paying $20. That's just everywhere I go.
