We had a great time with Jorge “la Tortuga”! His explanations were very clear and interesting. He knew the perfect spots under the shade and even suggested nice picture scenarios! We booked the tour with tickets included and the experience was very smooth. Would definitely recommend it!

We had visited Chicen Itza in June. We were 7, including 2 teens and 2 seniors and we requested an Italian-speaking guide. Julian spoke excellent Italian and was an excellent guide overall, providing us with clear and insightful explaination about the site history and general Mayan culture. We really enjoyed our tour, despite the incredibly hot day!

We were very pleased with this tour. Our guide, George, was very knowledgeable, explained the history clearly, had great supporting photos on his iPad, and answered all our questions. Arrival directions were easy to follow, we had no problems meeting our group. We really liked the timing of this tour too - we saw the main sites with our guide, and then had time to explore the outer parts of the site on our own. If you have a rental car, and don’t want to be tied to an all day tour, this is a great option!
