Excellent tour - This tour mixed a visit to the archeological site of Chichen itzá with a visit to a cenote before lunch. Hernán was an excellent guide who made the psyche of the Mayans come alive. The cenote we chose to visit was not commercialised and because we got there early we were the only ones swimming. Lunch was delicious and all in all I would highly recommend this tour.

Best trip you could wish for - To be honest I am not a friend of organised tours. But this one was so awesome, that it felt like you are on the road with friends. Perfect communication, perfect service, Mario and Hernan are the best tourguides you could wish for, Chichen Itza was already a blast, but the visit at the private cenote with the following delicious homemade food was unbeatable. Thumbs up big time!

One of the best tours we have taken! - This is one of the best tours we have ever taken! Communication for pickup was excellent. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and engaging. We were one of the first guests to enter Chichen Itza which made it even more magical. The tour provided snacks and water and even umbrellas to ward off the heat. They thought of everything! I would highly recommend this tour and would take it again if I were to return.

Wonderful trip to Chichen Itza - The trip to Chixhen Itza was absolutely amazing. The ruins were so wonderful to see. I was in awe. Pictures do not do it any justice. Our tour guide, Delio, was just great. He was so knowledgeable and easy to follow. He was very thorough in explaining all of the different parts of the ruins. I would definitely come back and would recommend this to friends and families.

Amazing Tour off the beaten track - Great trip, with a very different vibe than what we had experienced so far. It truly was of the beaten track, and we had the cenotes for ourselves at two occasions. The family lunch was both very delicious and an authentic experience of life in Mexico. Hernan, the guide, was very knowledgeable and we could feel his passion for his country and tourism. Would highly recommend.

Best Cenote and Hacienda Tour - Hernán was an exceptional tour guide. This was my group’s first time in Merida and he explained historical and cultural facts which elevated our tour. He brought us to places that were not crowded with tourists which made us feel safe during covid. 10/10 would recommend to anyone looking to visit cenotes, haciendas, and getting great good local food.
