Highlighted reviews from other travelers
we went in January with this trip. comfy van. clear schedule. plenty of stops to break up long day. great bilingual guides to explain everything. good level of history at Chichen Itza and really enjoyed all the stops. food obviously isn't the best for lunch but does a job for large groups. very good tour to see some highlights in the area, though you don't get loads of time in vallodolid or Izamal (but you can see the main square of each which is nice in itself!)
Excellent tour!!! My tour guide Alvaro was amazing.
