Amazing and Beautiful! - This trip was amazing and the staff was wonderful and easy to work with! They were accommodating and made sure we had the best time…which we did! The driver was nice and shared lots of history during our trip. The tour guide at the ruins was also amazing with lots of passion and knowledge. Then we stopped at a beach resort which was beautiful and the food was soo delicious. We got to pick our own fresh fish that came with sides and they were all delicious! Defiantly would recommend! Thanks for making our trip pleasant and memorable!

The Chacchoben Mayan... - The Chacchoben Mayan ruins were very interesting. Our Guide Saul, was very knowledgeable and had worked on some of the excavation and restoration. Our Driver Jhonny was easy to find at the terminal exit and got us to the ruins ahead of the big crowds. We also had some beach time, so a great day.

Great customer service - Our cruise was supposed to port in Costa Maya but weather didn’t allow for it. Viator was so great and refunded our trip even though it was only 2 hours before it was started. They were so wonderful and the driver so responsive.

This was a great... - This was a great affordable experience. Jhonny was the best! Do this in place of doing a ship excursion since it is half the price and just as good.

Communication was... - Communication was brilliant from the start. We were met with a white board with my name on which was big and clear to see, a big smile and bottled water waiting in the air conditioned car. our cruise ship had been delayed, this was not an issue at all. The journey was about an hour from the port. Jhonny bought our tickets to the temples and introduced us to our knowledgeable guide. They both were really happy to take photos and to go at our own pace. It was so good to be a smaller group (4) rather than the big cruise organised groups. Such a personal service and great memories made. Jhonny made sure we got back to the cruise ship in plenty of time. We decided to skip the beach and lighthouse as the weather took a turn and we chose to spend more time at temples in Chacchoben. I would definitely recommend the trip and Jhonny who was just fantastic.

The Mayan Ruins with... - The Mayan Ruins with private tour guide (since we had a group of 6) was great. Tour guide did a great job explaining the history and answering our questions. Our driver was nice but did not speak much English which made the 45+min drive a little less enjoyable. After the Mayan ruins we were taken to a restaurant at mahahual and felt like we were obligated to eat there. After that we were left without any time for the beach or shopping.

No Show - Our guide never showed up and I lost $40 paying for a cab ride trying to find him and a cab ride to get back. To their credit, Viator quickly refunded me my tour fees but I never got the tour and wasted time and money driving around in a cab.
