Die Geheimnisse von Uxmal, Cenote und hausgemachtem Essen

Absolutely wonderful! Hernan is a phenomenal guide who knows the history of Uxmal inside and out. He gave clear explanations of the structures and their many layers of symbolism, and also managed to squeeze in some birdwatching, which was fabulous. His knowledge of the Mayan culture and of birds is astounding, yet he himself is very relaxed and down-to-earth, plus very personable. Unlike nearby guides we encountered and observed on other tours, Hernan is totally down-to-earth and genuine, and often hilarious. The cenote visit was exquisite: completely natural, no crowds, and happily devoid of any commercial presence. All natural, all real. We loved touring with him and also the truly excellent luncheon prepared by a local resident nearby - a warm and friendly woman who prepared a delicious lunch. If you a seeking a relaxed, authentic, small-group experience with a fun and well-informed guide, I HIGHLY recommend this tour!

Diego was a wonderful guide & our driver excellent. Diego was very knowledgeable and friendly. He did not rush us through and we had plenty of time on our own at Uxmal. I really appreciated how we arrived early before it was too hot and the large Tours came. I was able to get some excellent photos. The cenote was beautiful and refreshing. The lunch yummy. Highly recommend.

A wonderful day! Our guide/driver Delio was outstanding! He was friendly, kind, professional, and knowledgeable. His commentary at Uxmal was very informative. Uxmal is an interesting ruin, for sure. We enjoyed the swim in the cenote and the chicken empanadas prepared on the spot by a nice family were delicious. I would highly recommend this experience to all my friends.

Hernán was more than great, my friends and I went on a private tour with him, he catered to our wants and needs, explained history in detail, and made the most out our time in the tour. Very much recommend Hernan for all your tours!!

Delio is awesome. Friendly and knowledgeable. I didn't know what to expect from Uxmal and I was completely blown away. Van was comfortable, ride was interesting, expectations and how to navigate entrance to Uxmal were explained very well. (bring cash for the entrance). We had an hour with the guide and then an hour to explore on our own. I could have used another 15 or 20 min but it was fine. Next an hour at the cenote. About a half hour away maybe. Bathrooms avaliable to change into swimming suit. Life jackets provided. Bring a towel. We spent an hour there as well and it was plenty. Highlight of the day was lunch at a local family's home. Empanadas, beans, lemonade. The only thing that would have been better was if the family were to eat with us and tell us about their Mayan ancestry or chat about anything really. Dropped off right at our hotel (picked up there too) with plenty of time to rest and head back out for an evening meal.

Such an awesome experience. I went to Uxmal and a cenote. We were the first ones there. Our guide was amazing and was so knowledgeable and great with answering mine and the other persons questions. I went alone and was a bit scared but it was so fun and so worth it! I would recommend this to anyone who is looking into going to Uxmal!!

Smooth ride to Uxmal just as it was opening. Hernan offered plenty of useful information and lead us through the park without any kind of rush. Drove to a family run cenote just as the day was getting hot for a swim. And then just down the road for a delicious meal from a local woman's house. Hernan was well equipped with water and coffee. Everything you need from an uxmal/cenote trip and nothing you don't.

I’m so happy to have booked this tour and it couldn’t be more perfect! Delio made sure the trip was smooth sailing throughout. Our transport had enough space for 5 passengers, a good size for a group tour, I was very comfortable and even had a nap 😴 The itinerary was well timed as you start in Uxmal around 8am, early before the harsh heat and large tour groups arrive. Delio also did a wonderful job educating us about the Mayans and Uxmal (in both Spanish and English), I learned so much! We went at a leisurely pace, I never felt rushed, and he also had plenty of water for everybody. The cenote we went to was beautiful and lunch was so delicious! You end the tour around 2-3pm, with plenty of time left to rest or do activities. I’m very glad to have booked this tour because of our experienced and knowledgeable guide Delio and his genuine connection with the locals. I’m very happy to have chosen this tour over the many others. I felt taken care of and everyone was so lovely. It was my first time in Merida and I highly recommend this tour to everyone.

Hernán was awesome. Brought us to the ruins right when they opened, so we had the site to ourselves and it made the experience much more unique. Super knowledgeable and passionate guide. The cenote after was the most surreal thing I’ve ever seen in my life, something I’ll never forget. Ended with an incredible lunch, our first time trying Mayan food!

The food was flavorful, and Giuseppe’s service made us feel right at home. We’ll definitely come back with my friends. Thanks
