Excellent experience
Excellent experience. The friendly guide, attentive to details and knowledgeable of the place and its history. I came on short trip and with limited time so the choice could not be better. I got to know the highlights of Merida

Great intro to a lovely city
My daughter and I really enjoyed our historic tour with Aaron. It was a perfect start for our time in Merida and a great way to get a lay of the land. We learned a lot about the history of the city and its key landmarks and we enjoyed getting a feel for the neighborhoods as we explored together. He also shared lots of wonderful local recommendations (for restaurants, shopping, beach, cenotes, etc.) that helped us plan out the rest of our time in Merida. He went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed his city as much as he does. Highly recommend.

Good tour to learn the history and culture of downtown Merida.
Our work group enjoyed the tour as we learned the history and culture of Merida. Our guide was excellent, friendly and knowledgeable. We were, however, disappointed that we were able to go into only one historical sight.

Great food tour in Mérida
The food tour in Mérida was great! Our guide Luisa took us to a market to taste some fruits we’ve never seen before, they were really good. We also had the best taco’s ever and a refreshing drink. Luisa told us a lot about local food and preparation. Highly recommended. Thank you!
