I enjoyed everything about this experience. The driver and tour guide were very kind and accommodating. They gave me the option of Spanish or English, and the tour guide was extremely knowledgeable about Maya culture, the ruins and the belief systems that influenced them. I highly recommend this very authentic experience.

Our tour guide Vald was such a lovely man and extremely knowledgeable about the whole area and culture of the Mayans. We were able to climb the temples and the view from the top was magical. We only saw one other couple the entire time. Highly recommend visiting.
"Thank you so much for your kind words! 🌿✨ We are delighted that you enjoyed your time with Vlad. He is indeed a fountain of knowledge regarding our Mayan culture and heritage. One of the most magical things about Becan is exactly what you experienced: the peace and silence of having a majestic archaeological site almost entirely to yourself. Also, being able to climb the structures and take in those 'magical' jungle views is a rare privilege that we love sharing with our guests. Thank you for the high recommendation, and we hope to welcome you back to the jungle soon! — The Team at ABCTours
