★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 108 reviews · 5 hours (approx.)

Explore Malpica and Concordia on a small-group Sierra Madre tour from Mazatlan, with local crafts, colonial sights, guides, and optional lunch.

“The Tour was good and disappointing at the same time. Since the driver had to pick up passengers from ship, he gave us an additional tour of Old Town. However, then trip was delayed. We stopped at a potter’s shop (instead of tile) and we got to the bakery after they had cleaned up and selling what was left. The Tour Guide was very informative; however, he kept mentioning gratuities (“are you happy”). It got to be annoying!! The trip ended up being about 8 hours instead of 5.”
