Excellent trip. It was worthy it. The Agency is very professional. Our guide Rosendo was very friendly and committed to make you feel great. He explained very well all places we visited.
It is good tour, cost-benefit, although it is true that there is considerable distance between each point it is good to have this type of activities that group some sites, it is only important to take into account that the times in each site are not long, in our case it was 1 hour with the guide in Chichen Itza and 50 minutes free, in the other sites were 50 minutes in each destination, which if limited to take some photos or tour a little more each site. On the other hand the guide is good9 (Rosendo) shares important facts, what you might expect from a guide.
Rosendo was very good. He was super clear and very interactive on his explanations of everything. It was a beautiful experience overall and a great way to spend an entire day in Mérida
Our guide Rosendo was amazing, very knowledgeable about Mayan culture. We had a blast visiting Chichen Itza and the pueblos magicos, also the food was top notch. Will definitley be booking again on our next family trip.
What a great tour! We had Rosendo as our very knowledgeable and very attentive guide, and Luis as our driver. It was a very long day but worth the early start to avoid the brutal mid day heat. If i had to do it again, I would skip Valladolid because there isn't enough time and maybe go to a cenote instead to refresh after lunch. Chichen Itza and Izamal are worth longer trips but can't fault our guides, they were great.
Hello thank you very much for your comment🤝🏻
Had a great time. Our guide, Rosendo, managed the tour very well. We were a small group of 7, there was sufficient time at every stop and everything went in a good pace. Great places to visit. I can highly recommend this tour.
