Excellent tour of Uxmal... - Excellent tour of Uxmal with our tour guide Miguel. Great historical points and the tour was never rushed. Kabah was excellent with nice Puuc-style carvings. Lunch at a restaurant nearby was really good. Ended the tour swimming at the cenote.
Highly recommend this tour, and especially Miguel. Note: we met at 7:40 AM and did not return until around 5 PM.

Uxmal plus - Our guide was excellent. His English was very good and more importantly his voice carried well and he enunciated clearly plus he was very knowledgeable.

Extremely professional, worth it! - We only had one free day in Mérida and this was exactly what we were hoping it would be. The history, architecture, stories and sights were so wonderful and we were lucky to have Miguel (Mike) as a guide. There is some hiking/climbing of the structures involved, but we aren’t exactly outdoorsy/super active people and felt totally comfortable. The views are amazing. Part way through the day we stopped for a local lunch which was excellent. Bring water, prepare to sweat a little but prepare for some views of a lifetime.

A Mayan Extravaganza - A knowledgeable tour guide, a lovely meal, and ruins that compare favorably to their more famous cousin Chichen Itza!!

Let's do it again! - Ricardo was a great tour guide! Not only was he engaging and friendly, but he truly seemed passionate about Mayan culture. As for the sites, both Kabah and Uxmal were well preserved, but Uxmal was absolutely incredible. It's an entire city. This is a site everyone should visit at least once in their lifetime.

Kabah and Uxmal - We picked the expedited trip and it was perfect. Both Kabah and Uxmal were so interesting and Glendi our tour guide was well educated and versed on the two sites. Great tour

Trouble-free exploration of impressive Mayan temples. - I chose Uxmal in preference to Chichen Itza because there are no crowds or pestering hawkers (it felt like we had the place almost to ourselves), and the Temple and Governor's Palace are just as revealing of Mayan culture and architectural ability if not so monumental; they are still very impressive. Kabah is also a beautiful site and it's interesting to see the additional remains mapped but not yet excavated, in their natural state.
This tour was just the right duration, given the heat. Our guide, Glendi, was excellent, full of detailed knowledge and enthusiasm.
One small point: a second pick-up point closer to the city centre would be beneficial, it's 2.5km to the Starbucks!
