Best tour ever! - Wow. Where do i begin. It was most definitely an amazing experience. From the pick up, location was a few blocks walking. Our tour guides Miguel and Rodrigo were exceptional and very knowledgeable, very personable to say the least. From beginning to end, beautiful. Valladolid at night - amazing. Then the cenote, the Mayan ritual, the food, the tequila tasting- wow. Just wow. We recommend this tour and will be doing it again. 🩷

Loved the Tour - The tour is 100% cultural, it beautifully mixes the traditions of the Day of the Dead of the Maya with that of the center of the country. The place is lovely at night and the food delicious! Enjoy the representations and the way the staff shared with us a bit of their culture. I recommend it if you want to live a different experience that brings you closer to this beautiful tradition.

UNFORGETTABLE DAY OF THE DEAD TOUR!!!!! - I went with altar expectations because I am a fan of Tours but this one left me speechless for being in a cenote, I connected with the tour to another level and enjoyed it as a little girl. I’ve taken many tours and definitely this move to 1st place in my top because I really consider it a memorable experience, it has good production, it’s a cultural experience because I learned so much about the Day of the Dead in Mayan culture, it’s a very complete, digestible tour (it doesn’t get heavy on you, like others), it’s interactive (optionally, I chose not because #Grinch haha) and visually it’s breathtaking. Have you heard that word? "Steals Breaths" It is a qualifying adjective invented by me to be able to describe this experience properly. I leave you my photo in my favorite part of the Tours that says more than a thousand words.

They cancelled and we did not get to experience. - We were very excited about this tour. We showed up at the meeting spot. No one arrived from the tour service. I called them and they said I should have received a cancellation email. I had not received this. I did have a email notice that my payment had been sent. Paid Uber for ride to and from meet spot. Out money for Uber and didn’t get the tour. Better communication is definitely needed!
