Great guide! - Great tour, highly recommend. Axel is such a knowledgeable, friendly and passionate guide. We also booked a second tour with Axel after the first one was fantastic. Real hidden gems that you wouldn’t have access to without the tour. Definitely great value for money, the food we tried on both tours were delicious as well! Thank you for helping make our trip such a memorable one!

A wonderful experience involving Mayan history and everyday Mexican life. - Efron and Marvinus were very attentive, and as I have limited mobility, I really appreciated their assistance getting around. Their knowledge and attention to me and my wife made this a wonderful time for us. We learned so much over the course of the day. We'd definitely recommend this tour with these two exceptional men.

The Best Tour in Cancun - This was an amazing tour of an authentic, Mexican Market and a dip in a private cenote! Our guide Max was extremely knowledgeable about the history of his culture and the Mayan people in Cancun. We had a delicious authentic Mexican meal to end out the day and we truly enjoyed this tour!

The best trip of our Holiday! - Fabulous, the best trip of our holidays!
My husband and I whilst staying at the Bayan Tree Mayakoba in March chose a selection of trips via the Hotel which were not nearly as good as this experience and far more expensive than independent-
“Hidden Gems Mayan Museum Cenote & Market Trip trip”. This well organised trip by Axel was by far the best in service, content and discovery.
The trip to the museum and Axels in-depth knowledge of Mayan Culture enabled us to really understand the artefacts and the Mayan Temples.
The trip to the Market was terrific - sampling local delicacies and amazed by the visual displays of goods.
The trip to the private cenote was the most memorable of our experiences truly a fantastic experience.
Axel looked after us brilliantly managing our time and yet allowing us to feel we weren’t being herded around .
I would recommend this trip 100 %

Best Tour EVER!! DO NOT MISS THIS!!! - This tour surpassed our expectations in each and every way. The tour guide, Axel, is a wealth of knowledge! Tour was very personalized, as it was just myself and my mom, and we loved each and every minute of it! Would definitely book a tour with these folks again, we had so much fun, the tour through the museum was incredibly in-depth, we really enjoyed the authentic cuisine, the market, shopping, as well as swimming in the centoe. They even surprised my mother with a birthday gift and decorated the back of the car, it was really cute and adorable, and I definitely was not expecting that. So much fun!!!! We will see you next time we are out, for Tulum!!

Amazing cultural experience & adventure! - This tour was definitely a highlight of our trip to both Cancun & Tulum! Axel was so knowledgeable and made it really fun to learn about so much of Mayan and Mexico’s history. We tried so amazing foods at the market and visited a private cenote. So it was really like 3 tours in one! He was so friendly and fun to hang out with along the way. Highly recommend this tour!!
