Look, Chichen Itza is amazing. Prepare for heat that is hot enough to render your smartphone downloaded with the walking guide useless. While my phone did work, the app struggled with locating me on site and the directions from one point to another were not clear. App could be updated with tips such as, "turn right onto the path overloaded with merchants in 150 ft"
Probably an amazing app if your phone can function that day.

App worked really well on GPS. Good information with a good narrator.
We would highly recommend 👍 it was nice to walk at our own pace.

Good guidance to experience the site on own pace. GPS worked well and you could stop or repeat explanation if necessary. Helpful to also have the possibility to read not only hear it.

An affordable way to get the most out of chichenitza without the heavy cost per person of a live tour guide. We learned a lot. A good amount of information without being too laborious.

The value of this product is unbelievable. It was our first time using a self guided tour and we will never look back. We loved that it followed our movements and began playing as we reached new areas.

The app didn't work, it continually switched on and off. I tried disconnecting it from data, tried using without earphones, finally I gave up and hired a guide.

Loved it - really informative and thought the tour came more and more into its own, particularly towards the end. Informative without overloading you with information, sometimes skipped ahead to new dialogues if you moved too quickly but otherwise a perfect app. Recommended!

Ok, so let’s cut to the chase. If you don’t like the tedium of a guide and a guide droning on and obsessing about obscure facts, then this self-guided tour is for you because you can turn your guide on and off and just keep to the bits you are interested in. Also Chichen Itzá is a sprawling site with a few detours and side alleys. This tour keeps you on track to see everything you need to see. It is of course also a lot cheaper than a regular guide. So yes it is worth it. The app needs, however, I think more work. We followed all the instructions. Downloaded the app before entering the site and loaded the requisite information for this tour. We turned off our mobile data as suggested but found that the gps navigation, tracking and prompting mostly did not track a path accurately around the site and sometimes we found ourselves wondering blindly between paths. When we turned data back on, it seemed to work a little better and we could pick out features but it was still inaccurate. You really need to use it in tandem with a map of the site. Nonetheless, we thought it was better having the app rather than not having it - just needs more work.

Very nice way to get an accurate image of the site and its history. Software worked excellent and stories were compelling. Nice cheap method to learn a lot and ideal if you want to do things in your own pace (instead of following a group)

Excellent self-guided option if you prefer the flexibility and independence of not hiring a guide. Felt a little guilty that we weren’t supporting the local economy by hiring a guide but there are many other ways to support.
