- Chichen Itza - After pick-up in Valladolid and a 45min drive we´ll start the day with a guided visit to the Maya-Toltec site of Chichen Itzá. As we leave early, we’ll be at the archaeological site before the crowds arrive, and we´ll avoid the heat. A professional certified guide will explain to you (+- 1h30min) this New World Wonder with the largest ball court in Mesoamerica, the Temple of the Warriors, the Observatory, the nunnery palace, and the Kukulkan temple. The Mayans are known for their astronomical knowledge. Not a telescope, but the windows in the Caracol point in the cardinal and sub cardinal directions and are believed to enable the tracking of the movement of Venus, the Pleiades, the sun, the moon, and other celestial events. After the guided tour, you´ll have enough free time to enjoy the place and take some nice pictures. - Cenote San Lorenzo Oxman - A well-deserved refreshing dip in an open cenote will be more than satisfying on our next stop, a 45min drive from Chichen Itza. If you want, you can take the swing rope to jump in it or take a moment to just relax. After the cenote visit we´ll bring you back to Valladolid, a 15min drive.

Go with Mexigo - Our guide Jose is very knowledgable about Mayan civilisation, the Yucatan and Mexico in general. We enjoyed our tour thoroughly. We had to pay a little extra as only the two of us booked on this tour but it was certainly worth it. We would highly recommend it.

Fantastic guide, amazing cenote - Great tour. Our Guide Jose was very knowledgeable and friendly, and accommodating to our interests at both Chichen Itza and the cenote. Best cenote we've been to - amazing, great location, beautiful water, rope swing that the kids loved, and concessions immediately adjacent. Can't recommend this tour highly enough!

Family vacation - We booked a tour through Mexigo Tours to visit Chichén Itzá, Izamal and a Cenote.
The price of the tour included all the above except for entry into the ruins in Chichén Itzá.
We were picked up at our hotel at 7am and returned back to the hotel at 7pm. It was a wonderfully fun filled day.
Our tour guide Hiberto, (I hope I spelled his name correctly), was so knowledgeable and friendly. Leading us on a guided tour of Chichén Itzá. Even though we had to pay extra for the tour, it was worth every penny. It is absolutely stunning. We learned so much about the history of the Mayan. And it didn’t hurt that it was a beautiful sunny breezy day.
Included in the tour was a visit to Cenote Yokdzonot, which included a delicious lunch after our swim.
The cenote was beautiful, it’s an amazing experience if you haven’t tried it, you should put it on your bucket list.
Our next stop was the gorgeous town of Izamal where Hiberto once again took us on a walking tour of the town which included a tour of a Mayan ruin, which we were able to climb up.
I would recommend this tour to anyone who visits Valladolid.
I give it a 10/10

Great half day Go Chichen tour - We went on the half day Go Chichen tour yesterday with MexiGo tours. Would definitely recommend this tour and this company. Really great communication via WhatsApp and Javier was very helpful in the office. Toon (sorry for the spelling) was brilliant. We had a great time at Chichen Itza and the tour gets you there early which means you can get some great pictures and see the sights before the huge tour buses arrive. The guided tour was really informative. We then went to Oxamal cenote which was really beautiful and Toon kindly recommended some restaurants and dropped us off at El Atrio for lunch. Would definitely recommend 😊

Expert insights about Mayan culture in a very comfortable and affordable setting - We made the reservation in the MexiGo Tours office, and the staff was very helpful and gave us other tips about Valladolid as well. Everything on the tour went just as expected and above, Gilberto was very knowledgeable and gave a great and funny tour of Chichen Itza. He made us feel very comfortable and took care of everyone during the whole day. We always knew what was going to happen and when. Gilberto was also extra helpful and even took us to a specific stall during our free time. We recommend this tour very highly!

Best in Valladolid for Yucatán experiences - Our experience with Mexigo was simply unforgettable! We participated in three tours, and each one left us with smiles on our faces and a suitcase full of memories.
*Day 1: Chichén Itzá + Cenote*
Let's start with the highlight: the tour to Chichén Itzá. José, our guide, was truly a polyglot and managed to engage all of us, explaining the importance of the site with contagious enthusiasm. Despite the crowd and the presence of markets at every corner, the site is magnificent. His detailed and passionate explanations made everything extremely interesting. And for the kids? Well, José proved to be a true master in keeping them engaged and interested!
*Day 2: Maya Cuisine Day*
The day dedicated to Maya cuisine was a unique experience. Juan, our guide for the day, welcomed us with a smile and a lot of patience. We learned to cook traditional dishes, discovering new and delicious flavors. And who would have thought that cooking could be so much fun? Juan made the experience educational and enjoyable, involving even the little ones. Our daughter, although she didn't speak Spanish, learned a few words thanks to the always smiling and gentle guides.
*Day 3: Piñata Creation and Yucateco Lunch*
The third excursion was the cherry on top. We spent the day creating personalized piñatas with Juan, culminating in a typical Yucatecan lunch at a restaurant. It was a very special and unexpected experience that made us feel like explorers in a new land. Ton, the owner, was always punctual, very capable, and extremely professional. The transportation was impeccable, equipped with a car seat for our little explorer, and always ready for our adventures.
A special mention goes to their attention to detail and customer care. We didn't always have guides who spoke Italian, but with Spanish and their smiles, they managed to interact with our daughter, who learned a few words. We were so impressed by their level of attention and management that we can't help but give them a full 5 stars!
We also tried another agency for a day, but there is simply no comparison. Mexigo surpassed all our expectations and gave us an experience that we will always carry in our hearts. Thank you, Ton, and thank you to the entire team, you are simply fantastic!❤️

Between culture and nature, fun for the mind and body - We were accompanied by Gilberto, who first showed us one of the wonders of the world and told fascinating stories about the Mayans. Gilberto was very exhaustive and interesting in his stories, immersing his mind in the world of the Mayans. Then he took us to a Cenote where, apart from the beauty of the place, there was the opportunity to dive both from a platform and using a rope. Gilberto was very helpful in taking videos and photos and keeping our backpacks safe. Super recommended.
