Amazing - A 10 out of 10 excursion, and especially thanks to Manuel.
We took the private excursion to Chichén Itzá, a cenote, and Valladolid, and the experience exceeded our expectations. From the beginning, everything they explained and promised us was fulfilled, and it was even better than expected. Very good organization, absolute punctuality, and, above all, totally personalized attention.
We especially want to highlight Manuel, our guide and driver, who was exceptional throughout the day. Always attentive, approachable, and anticipating what we might want at any given moment. It is very noticeable when someone does not just limit themselves to following an itinerary, but tries to ensure you really enjoy the experience.
We had insisted that we wanted to avoid crowded places, and Manuel understood that perfectly. He took us to a practically unknown cenote where we had the incredible luck of being completely alone. A huge cenote with turquoise water, where we also experienced a moment that is hard to forget: light was entering the interior while a storm was falling outside. We were alone inside the cenote, watching the rain fall and listening to the thunder while the light continued to stream in. Absolutely spectacular and probably one of the best memories of the trip.
The visit to Chichén Itzá was also very well organized and explained, we found Valladolid beautiful, and the restaurant Manuel took us to for lunch was excellent. The whole day was perfectly balanced and we never felt like we were in a rush.
We would recommend both the excursion and the company without a doubt, but if you also have the chance to do it with Manuel, it is much better. For us, he really made the difference and turned a day that already promised to be special into a 10/10 experience.
Thank you, Manuel!

Best tour guide in Mexico - We feel extremely lucky to have had the chance of discovering the wonders of Mexico with Caleb. He is such a great guy: passionate, knowledgeable, well-prepared, and genuinely enthusiastic about sharing his love for his country. By far, the best tour guide in Mexico - and we have no doubt that all of his colleagues are just as great as he is!

Search for uniqueness - Punctual, refined, organized; we divided the tour into stages, starting from the ruins, passing through Valladolid, which is truly characteristic with shops and little local spots, then we went to a truly private cenote immersed in nature, and to conclude, we ate in a Maya village. Truly an authentic experience

Best Adventure Ever - Luis was fantastic. I almost don't want to write a review because I had such a wonderful time. Everything, and I mean everything, exceeded my expectations. The UNESCO World Heritage site was amazing. The Cenote was out of this world beautiful and a fantastic lunch too! I would 1000% recommend taking this tour. I will take it again on my next visit.

Best tour of our trip 😊! - My daughter and I had an awesome experience visiting Chichen Itza, Samaal Cenote & Valladolid. Caleb and Everett were both fantastic. We arrived at the ruins and the cenote before the big crowds and the high heat. Both gentlemen were efficient, knowledgeable, courteous and friendly. Pickup & dropoff was a breeze - we even stopped for coffee & snacks since we didn’t eat breakfast. I highly recommend this tour for anyone who wants an easy and enjoyable experience, totally worth it.

Great destination with an awesome guide - Omar was a timely, professional and knowledgeable guide who kept our family of four (2 teens) engaged with his Mayan history knowledge and local stories. The cenote was a nice and refreshing treat. Lunch at a buffet included many local dishes not to be missed. We went at our own pace and skipped the shopping. Overall a great day. (Remember to bring hat, sunscreen and don’t forget your swimsuits.)
