History without being treated like cattle - Trip was fantastic. I do recommend renting the bike to get around quicker, so much to see and explore. Ended up being my favorite excursion of my trip

Cenote, mayans, history, amazing👏 - Great experience, tour guides we're great and the free water is an added bonus. Suzanne was funny and quirky and to delve into the history and mayan culture was amazing, quick easy access to each place and the mayan community with the cenote and food was excellent. So calm and the cave cenote was out of this world with crystal clear water and bats swooping! You must go on this, we were the only ones at the mayan community so it was up close and personal!

Mildred rocks! Great tour guide! - Despite the fact that the tour was changed at the last minute from Sunday to Tuesday (SAT Tours argument was that they didn't offer the tour on Sundays—what????), the eventual tour was very nice as it involved only four guest and a pleasant tour guide, Mildred, and a safe and courteous driver, Ricardo.
We visited two archeological sites, enjoyed the included lunch, and spent time at the scheduled cenote with the opportunity to visit a second sink hole on the same property. Whatever happened to the advertised "Mayan Cultural Experience" is anyone's guess. I was picked up at 8:50 am at my hotel and returned a little before 6:00 pm, so this is not a 12 hr tour. It's fair to state that other passengers spent more bus time, so no quibbles.
Mildred was an enthusiastic local guide and certainly bonded with the small group (one couple and two unrelated solo travelers). It was an enjoyable experience, and I would recommend the eventual tour operator. Ekinox Tours

Very complete tour - The tour guide Mildred and the driver José were AMAZING! They were funny and very descriptive. It was a very complete tour, more than we expected. We visited the Tulum ruins, then Coba, and we finished with a delicious lunch and the 2 beautiful cenotes. There was a maya ceremony at the end too. There was a nice little show in Tulum but we did not have time to see it, we were a little bit rushed. We would have spent more time at the cenotes, since we had only one hour to enjoy them. It is a very long day, bring snacks! Make sure to read the description, and bring cash because there is an additionnal fee for the entrances, and if you want to buy stuff it will be easier.

A long day out but good sites - A knowledgeable tour guide and some good sites to visit but a very long day (around 12 hrs). The food at the Cenote site was okay but there was no Mayan ceremony. 🤷♀️. It was just…okay. Lunch was around 3 o clock in the afternoon so plan snacks.
