History and safe family fun! - This was fun and educational. A great way to see the the cities and experience the culture. We also enjoyed the history of the ruins. Yoshi and Pedro with Native Choice were amazing. Yoshi took the time to explain things and was very informative. Definetly look forward to more with Nati e Choice.

Great education and fun - Recommend-as of 6/22-Our guide was amazing! He really made the day fun. We learned so much about the Mayans and how the culture lives on. Then we went to the village. We learned more about surrounding villages, history, and watched our authentic and delicious lunch be prepared by the beautiful women. You will be back to meet the cruise.
