I had such a great tour with Shirley and Mike - I learned so much about Merida and its deep history. They explained everything in great detail, especially from the perspective of the Mayans, away from the colonial lens. I greatly appreciate educating us visitors about the hardships Yucatecans went through in the past, especially as someone who is also affected by the long history of Spanish colonialism. There are many tours to choose from but THIS is the one to book! You’ll even get notes so you can go back to all info from the tour. They are super thorough and will go the extra mile to make sure you’re comfortable and enjoy. You’re guaranteed to have a great and enriching time at Merida’s historic centre. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thank you so much for your beautiful and heartfelt works. It truly mean. means the world to us to hear that you enjoyed the tour with Shirley and Mike so much and that you felt a special connection with the Mayan perspective and the real history of Yucatán. Sharing our story from the heart (and away from the usual colonial narrative) it's incredibly important to us so reading that it's resonated Where, especially as someone who cares the weight of that shared history, touches as deeply. We promise to keep giving our all, so every visitor leaves with the same warmth and enrichment you felt. The little notes, the cold water, the relaxed pace... everything is done with love so you feel right at home while you learn. Thank you again for recommending the tour and for such a wonderful review. We hope life brings you back to Mérida one day so we can keep talking and sharing more stories. A huge hug from the heart of the white Mérida.. Shirley & Mike Mike&Duck Experiences
Shirley was a great tour guide. As the only one on the group, we were able to have amazing conversations and I learned so much about the city and history. I highly recommend this tour.
Mérida is such a beautiful historical city. My tour with Shirley was so much fun. Her knowledge and the was she shared made this a most memorable day. Thank you Shirley!
This experience was amazing! I learnt so much about Merida and it's history. Shirley was such a light! She even recommended that I visit Barranquilla since I love Colombia so much, she was super knowledgeable and super sweet. This was exactly what I wanted and it definitely enhanced my solo trip! Thank you for making my visit special!!
This walking tour was absolutely amazing! I highly recommend anyone who might want to learn more about Mèrida and the Yucatan Peninsula to take this tour!! I was surprised, yet very thankful that I ended up doing this tour alone with Shirley (Duck) . She was so knowledgeable, friendly, and spent time answering all of my questions. I loved the locations we explored, as well as her segment about the traditional dishes in the Yucatan. That way I knew what to eat while I was in the area. I suggest doing this tour when you first arrive to Mèrida so you have more of an insight during your trip. My only regret is that I couldn’t stay in that area for a longer period of time to participate in more of the activities that Mike and Duck have to offer!!
Great tour of key sites in the historical center of Merida. Shirley shared information about history and culture and we learned fun facts about each place we saw. I would highly recommend this tour if you want an overview of the city.
Do not hesitate to book if you are looking to learn about Merida. Shirley and Mike made the tour so special and we had smiles on our faces the entire time. They really went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and have fun whilst learning all about the wonderful city of Merida, we can only say good things and a huge thank you to them both. The best tour we’ve ever ever done. Highly recommend!
Shirley and Mike were fantastic guides full of knowledge they were eager to share with our group. We walked around the historical center of town and visited a couple museums. We learned about local lore and history of the area and the people that make up this beautiful city. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to gain more insight of the history of central Merida.
This tour should be a FIRST experience in Merida that can influence the rest of your trip! What an AMAZING experience! Mike and Shirley were extremely knowledgeable of the history of Merida and the Yucatán peninsula, bringing the modern day tourist excursion to a whole new level of understanding and appreciation! They brought out the stories with humor and honesty, playing off each other and our questions. They are enjoyable, insightful, and their experience is full of fantastic surprises!
