Mayan experience of a lifetime
Cliff_S, Apr 2024
The guide had vast knowledge of the Mayan culture. Bus driver Alex and tour guides Gabriel & Isanesia (totally wrong name, our apologies) were wonderful. Totally enjoyable experience by all.
Best trip ever

All the trip was very very good I’ll definitely do it again when I have a chance I’ll definitely recommend to any one and specially to my friends and family
Great all-day trip!

This was a great adventure and seeing Chichen Itzá was the highlight for us. We wished we had more time at this stop but we were able to see everything (just had to move fast). The cenote was also amazing and on the way out we came across an example of a traditional home where a woman was cooking and handing out homemade tortillas - AMAZING. The facilities here were quite beautiful and the swimming is fun but crowded. Visiting Valladolid was interesting as well but our least favorite stop if we had to pick one. We are both vegans and the food at the buffet was limited for us, but well marked with allergens. Great beverages here! I was charmed by the ambiance and we also found some delicious vegan gelato nearby. Everything was timely and well organized. There’s a lot of travel time but the guides were great and kept us entertained for portions of the ride, which helped to make the time go by. Lots of podcast listening and book reading too! Overall, a long day since these sites are a decently long distance from the Cancún area but Chichen Itzá is a must see! We appreciated that the guides kept us on schedule and we were back at our hotel in time for dinner!
Long but good day

The tour was good but I was disappointed that we were the only English speakers in the very large group. The guides had great English but when it’s mixed in with other languages it’s hard to follow. If there wasn’t an English tour available I would rather not have done the trip. Chichen itza was interesting but ruined by all the people hassling to sell you stuff whilst you try and take in one of the 7 modern wonders of the world. The buffet lunch was lovely though. The cenote was stunning.
