Fabulous Mayan Excursion with Great History - Traveled with my fiance to explore Yucatan's historical gems with Fabian and Julio on a laid-back day trip from Cancun. Julio's knowledge of Mayan history is top-notch, adding depth to the experience. Chichen Itza, one of the seven wonders of the world, was definitely the highlight. From wandering ancient ruins to chilling at Cenote Saamal, every moment is memorable. It was a genuine adventure led by Fabian and Julio, who make learning about Mayan culture fun and engaging. Plus, taking a dip in the cenote is pure relaxation amidst the exploration. If you're into learning about Mayan history, this trip is for you.

A trip worth doing - Long day but very much worth it Raymondo our guide was funny and very informative and Eric our driver was also very professional and courteous too. As for the sites we visited no words can describe how much we enjoyed our experiences although as usual never enough time when you're having such a wonderful time .Food was good (we didn't choose plus option, in hindsight we should have as no food stops were planned besides lunch ) Hope this helps As with all trips the locals will always try to make you buy from them but a nice " no gracias" is appreciated no aggressive sales If you're into culture you will thoroughly enjoy the day highly recommend this trip and company very professional in communication making the whole day stress free

Best Transportation and a Great Guide. - The Mercedes Sprinter used for this trip was the most comfortable of our tours. Our guide, Lily, was very animated, fun to listen to and very well informed about the ruins visited. The tour is a little squeezed for time at the ruins, but we got to see most of each site and took lots of pictures. Coba is the more picturesque, sitting amid the encroaching jungle, but Chichen Itza is a 'seven-wonders' location for good reason and Lily pointed out the perspective to view the location of the solstice shadow the main structure is famous for . The Ik Kil cenote swim is fun but there is a crowd to contend with and this is the most developed of all the cenotes we visited. Great food at the restaurant at Ik Kil, too. I would bring friends on this tour.

Great tour - We only had a couple days and this tour was perfect to see as much as you can in one day. It did feel a bit rushed, but we knew that going into it (3 stops in one day?!). Tour guide and driver were both wonderful. Transportation was nice, clean, and air conditioned.

Amazing day with a great guide - Everything went according to plan. Had 9 people in my group so it was easy to get around and not have to always wait on a bunch of stragglers. Van was comfortable enough for the long rides and our guide was great and gave us lots of little tidbits of info. Lunch was good with plenty of options on a buffet and plenty of time to sit and relax.

Great tour to Chichen Itza - Our driver and tour guide were awesome! The tour was amazing Customer service was a bit lacking from the communication as they canceled the original tour and moved us to an upgraded tour but didn't have us on the upgraded list. A bit of a pain. It all worked out by our guide.

A good day - I am sure people with interest in anthropology will find this trip very informative and interesting. But the size of Chichen Itza was bit underwhelming. Overall I am happy that I joined this tour.

Way less time than advertised - Even though the tour mentions 3 hours for Chichen and another 3 hours for Coba, it was just 1:30 on each site. The guide was nice but lacked a bit of knowledge, the driver was nice and helpful.
