Amazing! - Saul was very knowledgeable, easygoing, and able to tailor our tour according to us. Basically, we were able to shorten or extend the time we stayed at certain locations within our tour. Plus, he took us to a local restaurant with delicious food.

Excellent Tour! - We had a perfect experience with Luis and this company. Customized a time and schedule that worked for our needs. Van arrived on time and was clean with good A/C. Tulum was busy as we decided to be not quite the earlybirds but Luis still got us through it all in a relaxing manner. Cnote and Lagoons were wonderful to splash around in. Lois customized a lunch location that took into account a shellfish allergy and we dined at a excellent local BBQ with zero shellfish on menu. Luis was easy to talk to and I would use his services again on our next trip!

A local cultural day with Saul - Memories to last a lifetime! Saul was the perfect guide for our family. His humor, kindness, knowledge of the areas and ability to craft such a special day was amazing. He made it all happen! We spent some the morning in a small Mayan village meeting with an elder who preformed a blessing ceremony for us (which Saul translated), followed by lunch and making our own tortillas in a local family's home. We then spent time with a few men in the village exploring and tasting the crops they were growing for their community. We learned so much and were grateful for this amazing local cultural experience. Our next stop was jumping into and swimming in a beautiful cenote that we had all to ourselves. The cool blue waters were just what we needed. We were then off to the community of Tulum. We explored and learned the history through the ruins thanks to Saul. Our final stop was just a fun one of grabbing a tropical drink and going 120 feet in the air on the Tulum Tower. Being able to see the vast jungle, the Caribbean ocean and the ruins from high in the sky was a prefect ending. You would think Saul would have been tired after a long day, but he easily chatted, laughed and answered our questions the entire drive back to our condo. My family and I continue to speak of our special day with Saul!

Tulum Ruins, Gran Cenote, Kaan Luum Lagoon - Our tour guide was soooo knowledgeable. He is an anthropologist and taught us so much about the Mayan culture during our tour through the Tulum Ruins. Then took us to the Gran Cenote. And finally, to the Kaan Luum lagoon. He also showed us the best places to take photos for instagram and was super patient when we decided to take photos in all locations. This experience was a 10/10. Thank you!!!

Perfect combination of activities - My tour started with a van pickup in Cancun about 6 am and returned to Cancun about 4:30 pm. Saul, my English speaking guide was fabulous. He was knowledgeable, communicated extremely well, and was really interested in my enjoying the experience. The drive from Cancun to Tulum took about 2 hours including a stop for great breakfast tacos. We arrived at the Tulum archaeology site shortly after opening with no crowds. Saul led a fascinating tour of the ruins for 2 hours. Very beautiful and interesting. You really want a guided tour to learn the history and Saul pointed out many details that would be easy to miss. We then drove 15 minutes to Gran Cenote. Gran Cenote is fabulous! We rented snorkeling gear and swam in this beautiful centote for about 45 minutes. Just beautiful. Then a short drive to an ecological park for a swim in a freshwater lagoon with a flooded cenote in the center. The park allows wading and swimming in the lagoon away from the deep cenote. Nice dock, hammocks and swings over the water. Very beautiful and peaceful. Following this, we drove into the small downtown of Tulum and had an included lunch at a great restaurant. Full menu and really good food. Finally, Saul drove back to Cancun. This tour is perfect if you want to see outstanding historical and natural sites of the Mayan Yucatan area. Plenty of time to enjoy each site and no push to buy souvenirs. Highly Recommended. Thank you Saul!. Turns out that Saul is a guide's guide. Two guides from other groups called him the master guide.
