Worth it! - The tour guide entertaining and informative. Ek-Balam and the cenotes were well worth it (even in a torrential downpour). The lunch was great, especially the tortillas! Only a couple slightly negatives; even though it states towel are provided, when we asked for towel they said they didn’t have any, and souvenirs were very expensive.

Cenote was great, Mayan... - Cenote was great, Mayan site was great. Driver was amazing. The drive was outrageously too long. We were the first pickup, we should have been the first dropoff. We were in fact the last.
