Beyond just a tour - My husband and I had an amazing day with our guide Jesus. He went above and beyond just showing us the site. His knowledge was incredible!

Great day private tour! - We started our journey early morning at 6.15am. Julio was our tour and he was on time. We started off the journey and Julio was explaining not only items related to the tour but also Mexico as a whole. Once we reach Chichen Itza, the process of ticketing was quick and managed well by Julio. He then explained the whole site with photos in his iPad as reference, which was really helpful. After that we had lunch and again Julio explained the local meals and recommendation. After lunch, we went to a beautiful and quiet Cenote whilst spending time there around 40-60 minutes. We then returned back to hotel. All in all, money well spent and Julio & Mexico Highlights met our expectations. Some improvement to consider - as tourist which are new to the country and considering its a private tour, perhaps a mixture of knowledge and photo taking sessions can be provided. It may be small but for tourist like us, the photos goes a long way.

Best Chichen Itza Trip!!! - This was one of the best trips we have done. Pick up from hotel was on time, clean transport and great team which were Alan the driver and Hesa who was our tour guide. Very good English and amazing knowledge. We went to Chichen Itza and we were there before the crowds which helped with pictures. We then went to Valladolid, great recommendation from lunch, no hard selling was done on this trip as we could explore on our own. Perfect. Then to the Cenote - wow we had this to ourselves, just be prepared it’s chilly which is nice after the heat 😎 Would highly recommend spending more. We left Playa Carmen at 6:30 am and we were back for 16:45. Thanks guys it was amazing!

The best way to see Chichen Itza! - This is THE WAY to do Chichen Itza if you have a small group. My husband and I wanted to do the tour but didn't want it to take literally the entire day. We were paired with Julio who was absolutely amazing! He was so good about answering questions and offering information and helped us make the day what we needed it to be! He took pictures for us and made everything very smooth. Would definitely do again if we ever go back!

GREAT CHICHEN ITZA TRIP! - The trip was awesome! Would really recommend a tour with this agency - pickup was on time, vehicle was comfortable and stop locations were beautiful. I was looking for a private tour online to skip the bus experience and if you’re looking for the same - this is the one!! Jesus was an AMAZING tour guide with a lot of knowledge to share. He was so fun and treated us wonderfully. Chichen Itza - We got there and walked the grounds before the crowds came in. It poured rain (only like 15 minutes), but it was still wonderful to see in person. Valladolid - Cute little town. We checked out the convent and had lunch at El Meson Del Marques. The food was great - my boyfriend really enjoyed the salsa. Cenote - Jesus took us to Xux Ha. The cenote was sooooo beautiful. The pictures don’t do it justice. It was a very private experience where we were the only two people in the cenote at one point. Thank you Jesus & Mexico highlights!

Amazing experience with fabulous company at chilled out pace - We had a fabulous day on our private tour with Alan and the two of us. Alan shared lots of interesting g I formation about Mayan culture and the surrounding area en route to Chichen Itza. The arrival just as it opened was perfect to allow us to be taken round by our guide Joel who was very informative and to get to look round by ourselves and take photos whilst the location was uncrowded and temperature was reasonable. Alan then took us to Valladolid , recommending a beautiful restaurant for lunch and then a walk around the town square visiting g the church and town hall . We then went to an amazing cenote which was quiet and had plenty time to enjoy the amazing surroundings. The whole day was at our pace and designed around our wants and needs. We would highly recommend this trip

Perfect Chichen Itza Tour - Chichen Itza Tour: Hisa was our expert tour guide and he tailored our experience to exactly what we wanted. His extensive knowledge of the Mayan culture was a highlight. He also took a great photo of us at the temple. Driver: Eduardo was a very safe driver and played great music so we vibed the whole ride. He even helped me open my umbrella when it raining. My sister in law and I get car sick easily and had no problems at all. Best driver in Mexico!! Lunch: Hisa and Eduardo were so kind keeping us hydrated with ice cold bottled water. He recommended an excellent restaurant. Members of our party are adventurous and reserved with food choices, so he expertly helped us order delicious food there. Everyone loved what they ate. Shopping: Hisa helped us find a few jewelry stores to check out that I wanted to see. Cenote: This was so fun! My husband and his brother loved swimming with the little fish. There was also a diving board and a waiting area bench on the dock if you just want to put your feet in the water.
