Jesus and Julian were great. Jesus was a wonderful guide. While it was an early pickup, it was worth as we arrived at Chichen Itza as the gates opened and before the cavalry of your buses and large crowds arrived. Hubiku was an enchanting stop for lunch and the cenote. Ek Balam was an exhilarating climb. Wonderful history and thorough explanations from Jesus made it a memorable experience! Definitely recommend.

Routing from Cancún was through Playa Del Carmen going to the sites and returning to Cancun through Tulum. The long hours in a van with limited air conditioning were miserable! Since the company did not route directly to sites from Cancún and back, travel time to arrive at sites was 3.5 hours going to sites and 4 hours to return. That’s at least 3.5 hours longer travel time than it should be. However, Chichen Itsa, Ek Balam and Hubiku Cenote were excellent sites that did not disappoint. Ek Balam was a wonderful contrast with Chichen Itsa—no crowds and climbing some ruins provided great views. The guides were outstanding. The buffet lunch at the cenote exceeded expectations! It was a tough, long day but worth it overall.

The tour was great. All the stops were while timed. Our guides and driver where very helpful and friendly. The only downside was the broken A/C in the vehicle. Due to this, I would not recommend during summer months.

Absolutely amazing and highly recommend. Maria (Mimi) was our English guide and she was so well prepared. Tablet with maps, magazines with photos, etc. At Chichén Itzá, she took us to areas I did not get to see last time I was here (on a different tour). The addition of Ek Balam, which is much less popular, but no less spectacular, was amazing. Here you can actually climb all the way to the top of the palace. A lovely cenote swim to cool off, follwed by a delicious lunch, made this the perfect day. Shout-out to our driver, Julian, and the Spanish guide, Tonansi, who were both extremely helpful and personable. We will be back!

I wouldn't recommend this company, they cancelled our tour the day before our planned tour. They tried to call us at 3pm the day before via WhatsApp. Like most travelers we only have WhatsApp when on free Wifi at our hotel. We didn't get this message until 5.30pm when we returned to our hotel. Very disappointed with care factor or this company. Surely they could have cancelled a few days out which would have given us an opportunity to source another tour on the only day we had available with another operator.

Fantastic day trip , our guide Alex was great! Very knowledgeable! Perfect timing at every place we visited . Certainly worth booking. We were picked up at around 7am and back in time for dinner at 6pm in Playacar.

Great tour. Thank you to our wonderful guides and driver. We had a four year old with us so anyone traveling with children please be aware that Chichen Itza and Ek Balem are very hot. Water is provided throughout the day by the driver/guides which was much appreciated. The reduced group means getting between destinations faster which was good as it's a long day but incredible to have seen these wonders.

I am sending you the experience of my parents who had booked your tour to Chichinitza. You should know the feedback so you can improve your performance. The guide and lunch was. fine. But what was painful was the trip back to Playa de Carmen. The guides conveniently got down first and then started the ordeal. The group consisted of two Group's from Cancun and my parents were from Carmen. The driver had to leave one group at one end of Cancun and then leave the other at the other end of Cancun. Imagine the time lost. After that he left my parents at Carmen close to 10 pm. They were on the road close to 6 hours.I was horrified to learn this. How unprofessional!!
The agency should then have taken people of the same area. My mother is going on X to tell about her experience. They are so tired they can't think of going to Tulum the next day. You should be more thoughtful.

The sights and guide were simply phenomenal. Our guide, Maria, made sure we understood the history and relevance of what we were seeing, while still giving us plenty of time for exploring on our own. It was hot hot hot, so take plenty of sunscreen and cover up. The cenote was a wonderful refresher and the view from top of Ek Balam was incredible. Only complaint was that the van was not big enough for our group of 6 tall friends (all 5’10” to 6’4”). The ride was so uncomfortable and it’s a long drive to the ruins.

While the places were good, the tour guide took about 3-4 hours more than it needed. The tour guide picked up and dropped additional people, we spent time waiting and then were given very little time at the cenote and it felt rushed. The snacks were very average for a 14 hour trip. The tour guide spent too much time explaining and didnt give us time for photos and rushed us through the free time. Overall, we spent 5-6 hours at the sites and about 7-8 hours on the road. Coba ruins could be skipped.
