Life-time experience - We enjoyed the hospitality of the crew members and their spirit in guiding us through the archeological sites and Mayan culture. Great experience. Thanks to our tour guide.

Apart from the lack of... - Apart from the lack of organization with pick up (they left me waiting for half an hour without telling me anything, until I called and they sent someone to get me, making me think they would have actually left me there if I hadn't called), the tour was good and the guide was very knowledgeable. It's a full on day but you get to see and do a lot.

Adequate - Booked last-minute. Was aware of the $35 “tax” charged at check-in. Would make more sense to just include it in the initial price. Transfers were adequate, but you must taxi or Uber if you are not at a major hotel. Bus was comfortable. Staff was informative and entertaining. Lunch at restaurant was ok. Server tried charging me for 3 drinks, when I only had 1 Coca Cola. Paid with $MX500, price was $MX55. Only given $MX300 change. When I showed the server he “made a mistake,” he only offered to give me $MX50 back. I would have tipped larger if he didn’t steal from me. Before you eat, you are told about how the Mayan descendants hand make all souvenirs we are forced to look at. Told the stickers on the items are the initials of the people who made them, but saw a woman sticking random initials on random items. Bought 3 items and had them blessed by the shaman, who charged me $MX200 for the blessing. Chichen Itza itself was very beautiful once you walk past the gauntlets of vendors. 2 hours to listen to the tour guide or walk around on your own. Very cool to see one of the “new wonders of the world.” Bring a hat and water. Also, bring snacks and water for the bus ride. Over all, it was a cool experience and I’m happy I did it. I don’t need to do it again.

Mixed feelings; great culture spoilt by commercialism - Guides very knowledgeable and Chichester Itza is impressive and Cenote is pretty. However the trip was spoilt by too much time at the shop and an unnecessary short stop on the way back in a town. Too much time spent trying to sell us things at over the top prices. Give more time to the two sites we paid to see and more free time at them. Bus broke down but great effort sorting taxis. Price good in comparison to hotel excursion but watch for the added state taxes.

Hidden cost - 45 min only at chichen. It's not 45 but 150$ cause you pay ticket then when you arrive at bus station, you are suppose to pay 35 but they charged 54$ on my card. Then you have to pay for locker and vest

Not recommend - The good thing about this tour was that they started on time at 7:10AM Things I didn't like are - He stopped at some artifacts store place and wasted 30mins asking us to shop, +15mins explaining something that could be done quicker. There was really only one store and everything was over priced. We bought some chichen itza souveniers that was 5x compared to the price that was sold for by local vendors infront of chichen itza - when we went to valloid the traffic was backed up so much that it caused a lot of delay - the time we got dropped back at our hotel was 9:40pm - Also keep in mind, this tour does cenote first and then chichen itza (if that matters)
