Tulum - I really liked that the voice of the Guide was that of the ancient ruler of the ruins and in general I liked the whole explanation of the temples

In love with the history of Tulum - I really liked that the governor of Tulum himself will tell us the story he lived in the past. The temple of the frescoes, despite its age, is more than preserved and in addition to the activities to find the Gods they worshiped. In 1518 they were subjected to the empire of the Spanish and all by order of the governor for them to abandon Tulum, thank God he was healthy and telling us about that wonderful life experience.

Tulum a dream come true - I loved the history of Tulum and the immersive experience, it's too bad that the Spanish did a lot of damage to them but thank goodness several of them were able to escape and not be slaves.

Lacking in substance - The best part about this tour is that it started on our time. There was no rush to meeting up with a group tour with a guide. The price was extremely reasonable too. The downfalls were that the information was sparse, and although they have a clever idea with using actors to act out different characters, there wasn’t a lot of substance or history. Each stop on the tour had a very brief audio that left a lot to be desired. The idea was great, but it can use some tweaking to include more historical and archaeological information.
