Our guide Frank and driver Hose were really nice and the tour was really organized. Best tour we had. Historic places may not sound like the best place for kids but they made it so entertaining for the kids and our 7 and 9 year olds LOVED it. We cannot thank Frank and Hose enough. Thank you Amigo tours for having a great team!!
Great experience overall! The guides were very helpful, kind and very knowledgeable! All the stops were excellent - would recommend to anyone visiting!
Pastor and Jose were fantastic and took great care of us! The tour was very informative, fun, and exciting! Our favorite experience was the cave exploration
Pickup at 6:55 at Smart Oasis. Hop on the first bus and transfer to the second bus at the Crown Paradise after checking we all paid the foreign tax for archeological site. Then the bus picked up at multiple locations in town and took over an hour to leave the down. Suggest to arrange a smaller van to pick up all people and then make the transfer. Josue was our tour guide. He has the passion of showing us Mayan culture from his own. Tulum - Have to wait about 1/2 hr to get all tickets. Visit is a bit short. Wish to have tickets ready when arrive so can spend more time. Site is one of must-see places Cobra - A bit hiking and then climbing up the pyramid. Georgeous view at the top. Guide explained along the hike Lunch - Buffet lunch and Mayan celemony Cenote Ruina - Only accessible for the tour group. Swimming in one of the georgeous cenotes Playa Carmen - arrived at 8pm.Make short 30min stop at 5ave. Wish we can arrive early and enjoy the sunset. Was a very long day trip. I started my day out at 6:30am and returned almost at 10pm. With only 4days in Cancun, I would still recommend this your for any one in a short trip
Visiting Tulum early in the morning - excellent idea, less people and no heat. Then Coba: great, just 20 more minutes there would have been better The cenote: it is an amazingly beautiful cenote, we loved it there The downsides: the van is undersized for that many hours of driving... no leg space; the lunch period is really late and the departure really early so get your snacks ready for the trip; guides are bilingual but seriously you can't expect people to understand when speaking 1 word of each instead of full sentences one language after the other..
This was a very nice trip. The guide was very knowledgeable and really kept the bus trip interesting. The bus was very comfortable. The highlight was certainly the cenote. We were the only ones there, so there was plenty of room to swim around and enjoy the cool water. The lunch was fine, and the time spent at both Tulum and Coba was a bit short, but we had sufficient time to see all the main highlights. I would recommend this tour - Ray was our tour guide.
Jorge was an amazing guide! Very knowledgeable and helped us loads! One of the best! The trip was unbelievable! Climbing the pyramid at coba was the best! We had just enough time at all the places! The group was good and great atmosphere! And was just the right amount of people!
Take an excursion today from Cancun. We were gone a total of 12.5 hours which is a really long day, but it took time to drive to Tulum and then to Coba. Paul is it great to guide. Juan was our driver. All the stops were beautiful and well worth it. Lunch was delicious and a simple buffet.
Although a long day of approximately 16 hours, the experience and tour guide were well worth it! Comfortable bus with water, soft drinks and beer included at each stop. Knowledgeable tour guide Alejandro that took the time to give historical answers to all our questions. Tulum and Coba were Mayan ruins in two very different locations on windy coast and inner forest. The ability to walk up the steps of Coba was a-mazing! Local linch and Mayan blessing was a lovely addition for the day. The cenoté was very relaxing and refreshing in the beauty of being totally underground and only our tour at the location. The stop in Playa del Carmen was a bit too peopley for me but was a short stop and the sorbet was yummy. Highly recommend the tour and to bring supper snacks in your day bag.
Thoroughly enjoyed day. Guide was good and we did a lot. Was a little rushed at Coba for those walking around but we used tricycle and saw all we wanted. Loved the swim in the cenote and cave.
