Cancún Turismo El Meco Sitio, Cartas y Compras

5 out of 5! Hector and Enrique were absolutely amazing

I really enjoyed seeing sites beyond my resort and El Meco was fantastic. I'm not big on shopping, but if you like luxury items and locally focused gifts, this is a good tour for that. The driver and guide were great. El Meco is a treasure!

We booked this tour 2 months in advance. The most challenging part was communicating with Cancun Island tours. We messaged them multiple times ahead of our tour and it was very difficult to get responses from them. They said our driver would reach out to us with pick up details and then we never heard from them. We were not sure the tour was even going to happen. We first stopped at the Cancun sign to take pictures. Then, we stopped at the jewelry store for shopping. This store is VERY overpriced, even for the tourist area. Would not recommend buying things there. Most of the souvenirs you can get cheaper at almost any other shop. Next, we stopped for lunch, which was very good (they only give one coupon per group though, worth around $10). This stop also had some souvenirs, which were cheaper than the other store. Last, we stopped at el Meco, which is NOT a guided tour as the listing might make you think. They drop you off to walk around and then take you home. The site itself is beautiful and worth a trip, but you might save money taking a taxi or uber instead. This is also the last stop of the day, at one of the hottest points of the day. We would recommend going in the morning instead. Overall, my group did not think this tour was worth the value of it. Our guide Olga was very knowledgeable and kind. She managed a group of mixed language speakers very well.

The experience started with an amazing tour of the Hyatts Jewelry shop and “tequila tasting”. Associates were so kind in showing us the wonders of hotel jewelry. This was followed by “authentic tacos” at the Intercontinental restaurant “Mexico Magic”. The gift shop was the highlight (see picture). After so much excitement throughout the day we were finally taken to El Meco after a 3 hour detour to all the “hits”. Great history there, which was our original goal after all the nonsense detours and upselling.

Olga and the driver were both amazing! Loved the tour.

Guide was great and tour was fun

Great little tour with stops for shopping and a nice little lunch at a reasonable price. We would've enjoyed more time at El Meco.

Our family of 7, ranging in age 19-78, booked this as a private group tour. We had a beautiful day with easy itinerary. Emy was our guide and he was kind, professional and made our day enjoyable. He took great pics of us and never made us feel rushed. The unlimited tacos were really good and our server, Carlo, took great care of us. The tour was not a history lesson and El Meco was mostly self-led, which we liked. The jewelry "show" and tequila tasting were classy and lovely with high quality items to choose from. We were surprised that we all purchased items! The souvenir is totally worth this part, even if you don't buy anything else. Overall, we had a lovely day that all age groups were able to participate in and enjoy. Book this if you don't want a long, drawn out day because you can make it as personalized as you like.

No experience. Cancun tours did not complete the confirmed tour. Did not go to the El Meco site. Either Viator or Cancun tours mixed up our 2 confirmed tours. They were unable to correct the error on the dates of the confirmed tours. Both tours were exactly the same except for the site visit. The online description did not match the confirmed tours.

Great visit! Margarita and Teresa lovely!The shop has very nice pieces and nice souvenirs!The tasting and explanation about tequila very interesting!
