Great Tour! - This was a great tour. Jorge, our guide, was very knowledgeable about the history surrounding the Hacienda and especially about Uxmal. It was all fascinating and taking a dip in the cenote at the end was very refreshing. We highly recommend this tour.

Not To Be Missed - Founded in the 17th century this hacienda is a treasure. Once a working henequen plantation there is much to discover as you walk the grounds of this beautiful hacienda.
