Reviews
This was a BRILLIANT tour. 10/10 would recommend. It is a long day (started at 6:30am back at 7:30pm) but well worth it and great value fo money. The tour guides and driver were great and very knowledgeable. We also asked the tour operator to delay by a day due to sickness of my partner and they were very communicative and accommodating. The only thing if you are booking from Playa del carmen do not pay extra for hotel pick up! All playa del carmen hotels in this tour are local pick up from a designated spot (it was only 3 min walk from our hotel luckily). great value for money for what you get. make sure to take some cash to tip the guides and driver as they were worth it. The bus had AC and toilet which was needed as a long time on the bus.
Great tour with excellent sites!
Luis was fantastic, he really made the tour great for me. Incredibly passionate about the history of Mayan, and his people. would highly recommend
