VIP Tour Privato di Chichen Itza

This was hands down one of the best experiences of our entire trip to Mexico. We booked the private Chichén Itzá tour, and Carlos absolutely made the day unforgettable. From beginning to end, he was incredibly accommodating and made sure we had an amazing experience. His knowledge of Chichén Itzá, the cenotes, the local culture, and the areas we traveled through was impressive. You could tell everywhere we went that Carlos knew everyone and was genuinely well liked and respected. He went way beyond just being a tour guide. Along the drive he helped us spot birds and monkeys, pointed out things we never would have noticed on our own, answered every question we had, and gave us great recommendations throughout the entire day. Even when it came time to eat, he helped us choose the best local food and made sure we got the full experience. Carlos was even our personal photographer for the day! 😂 He knew all the best spots, angles, and places to take pictures at every stop. We came home with some incredible photos that we never would have gotten without him. He truly thought of everything. One thing that really stood out was how comfortable and safe we felt with Carlos the entire day. Being in a different country and traveling to different areas, that means a lot. We never felt uncomfortable or unsure about anything. Carlos took care of us from start to finish and made it easy to just relax and enjoy the experience. Having a private tour with Carlos made the entire day feel personal instead of rushed or touristy. We were able to enjoy everything at our own pace, and he made sure we were taken care of every step of the way. This tour honestly made our trip to Mexico. When we come back, there is no question who we are booking with — and we will absolutely be demanding Carlos again! If you're considering this tour, BOOK IT. And if you can request Carlos, DO IT. You won't regret it. Thank you, Carlos, for an absolutely epic day and a memory we will never forget!

Carlos was an exceptional tour guide with a great personality, warm demeanor and excellent knowledge of history and the places he took us to. We enjoyed the entire trip from start to finish. Would highly recommend him for trips in the area

We were so fortunate to have Carlos as our guide. Friendly, knowledgeable and very flexible. We had a great day, with no stress. Thoroughly recommend this trip. Communication excellent from the time we booked. Pick up punctual, transport clean and spacious. The tour of Chichen Itza was excellent. Something we will always remember. Thank you to Carlos for making our day so memorable and special. Here’s to our next trip spear fishing 😉😂

The VIP Chichén Itzá Private Tour was amazing, from start to finish. Amulfo, our driver and was great. The pickup was on time and he had water on ice. The drive from our resort to Chichén Itźa took toward a half hours, but the van was spacious , we stopped at a clean rest shop half way there, Amulfo’s driving was great and his conversation was engaging. When we got to the site it was a really hot day, but our guide has spare umbrella’s for shade. His knowledge of the site was incredible, and he did not rush us. We went to a very nice restaurant in near by town for a delicious lunch. His driving was so smooth that we slept most of the was home. I highly recommend this tour experience!

If you're heading to Chichén Itzá, do yourself a favor and book Irving. He was our guide for a private VIP tour that hit the ruins, a cenote, and Valladolid, and it turned into one of the highlights of our whole trip. He picked us up at our hotel at 6:30am sharp so we could get to the ruins early and beat the crowds — and it worked, we were basically one of the first groups through the gates. The drive from Quintana Roo took almost 3 hours, but honestly it didn't feel like it. Irving knows a ton about Mayan history, and somewhere along the way he and my son got talking about video games and sports, which turned into us finding out he's a Vikings fan too. We spent a good chunk of the ride swapping Vikings stories and reliving some wild moments from the team's history like we'd known each other for years. Once we got to the ruins, Irving really brought the place to life. He wasn't just reciting facts — he used photos and videos alongside what we were actually standing in front of, so everything clicked. He pointed out how many steps make up the temple, how it lines up perfectly with the spring equinox, what kind of sports were played there, and how the Maya built with limestone and smaller stones instead of the massive blocks the Egyptians used. Little details like that made the whole visit way more interesting. We got through the ruins before the heat really kicked in, then swung by a cenote nearby. We didn't go in, but just seeing how clear and blue that water was made it worth the stop. After that we grabbed lunch in Valladolid — my son and I basically inhaled the guacamole appetizer — before heading back to Playa del Carmen. The whole day was easy, fun, and we actually learned something, which is exactly what you want from a trip to a UNESCO site. My son had such a good time with Irving that he's already talking about bringing his mom and brother next time we're back in the area. Thanks again, Irving — and go Vikings. Hope you make it out to the Mexico City game this November. Can't recommend this tour enough.

We went to Chichen Itza with our guide Tony. He did an amazing job and taught us so much information. Then we went to the cenote which was stunning. Following this, we travelled to this small Mexican restaurant with amazing food! Tony recommended some amazing dishes and we had a blast!

Everything about this experience was excellent. From booking, communication leading up to the excursion, to the day itself was so well executed. We had a large group ranging in age from 4-70 years old and everyone had a great time. Our guide Carlos was exceptional. He genuinely cared about making sure that we had a great day and he really delivered. It is very hot in August so arriving at Chichen Itza early was key. Carlos knew a lot about Chichen Itza and was a great tour guide. He also takes amazing photos. The cenote stop was so fun. He accompanied us all around the site watching our bags, helping with the rope swing and taking photos. The included lunch was great to. It was perfect that everyone could get exactly what the wanted and no one left hungry. It was also nice that all the entry fees are included with this tour as I noticed that many do not include the various entry fees in the cost. I would definitely book again with this tour company.

Magnificent visit to Chichen Itza. We wanted a private tour for a family of 5, and it was wonderful. Punctuality, spacious and clean vehicle, and best of all, the guide Isaac, very attentive, polite, and very knowledgeable about the site; he explained things in a very pleasant and professional way. The cenote was very beautiful, although a bit crowded, and the food in Valladolid was very good and in a very pleasant place. In short, a perfect and unforgettable day in one of those places in the world that are magical and must be visited.

We had an amazing tour of Chichén Itzá with Carlos. He was extremely knowledgeable and shared so many interesting insights about the archaeological site as well as Mayan history and local culture. I traveled with my teenagers and they were fascinated by the entire tour. After visiting Chichén Itzá we swam in a beautiful cenote which was a truly unique experience. My teenagers had a blast jumping into the water from the ropes. We then enjoyed a really delicious lunch in the lovely colonial city of Valladolid. Carlos was also an excellent driver and we felt completely safe and comfortable throughout the day. Everything was very well organized from beginning to end. It was a wonderful and truly memorable day for our family. Highly recommended!

Carlos was awesome. Got us to Chichen Itza early, beat the crowds of buses, walked us through the site, great knowledge of the area. Then we sent to swim in a cenote, which was amazing. By then we were incredibly hot and getting in the water second was the perfect sequence. We then had lunch in Valladolid and walked around the town square a bit. Can’t say enough good things about our guide Carlos. Friendly and knew how to keep things moving so we didn’t sit around and wait.
