Great guide very interesting and able to talk to children. Beautiful site. Our favourite in Mexico To do absolutely
Informative and shaded stops for longer talks. We left understanding more about the site’s history and future conservation work.
Tony, our guide, was exceptional. He was full of historical knowledge and was eager to show us details that we would have otherwise missed. He is of Mayan heritage and spoke to us in an ancient dialect that is still used today within his family. The ruins are breathtaking and overwhelming in size.
Beautiful site, less frequented than the more famous Chichén Itza but in my opinion no less important. I recommend a local guide to better understand particularities that otherwise you would risk losing
It was very interesting and we got to know the Maja culture better. Thank you also for the great pictures we received.
