What people are saying about Piste, Mexico

An amazing trip, we can’t fault it! It was made clear prior to the trip the pick up & drop off place. We had an amazing tour guide called Luis who was so interesting, knowledgeable & funny (he made the trip for us!). We had 3 different parts to the day, the 1st stop was Chichen Itza where Luis took us round on a tour & educated us all about the Mayan history & culture! He then gave us free time to take our own photos & was open and honest about the best places to buy souvenirs from. The 2nd stop was the Cenote which was beautiful & refreshing & had a delicious buffet included (don’t forget to bring costumes/trunks & towels). The final stop was the local town where we had 30 minutes to explore, have free tequila tasting, eat some churros & listen to live music. Although the trip is a very long day it’s definitely worth it to see one of the 7 wonders of the world! Make sure to factor in extra money for the Chichen Itza ticket & drinks at the buffet but otherwise, book it!

We loved this tour!! Diego was a fantastic guide - friendly, knowledgable, and caring. Tulum was super cool and much bigger than I expected. The snorkeling portion was one of the better snorkeling experiences I’ve had - very nice well fitting equipment and crystal clear water to see the fish. In our opinion the last stop was the best though. Swimming through the underground cenote was pretty mind-blowing. Such a unique and special experience! The lunch provided afterward was yummy and they also offered snacks throughout the day. The driver was awesome too. Even though the van is a little cramped, we always felt safe. Overall I would recommend this tour completely!

Chichen Itza was closed, and we were really disappointed but the tour operator offered us to visit instead Ek Balam, cenote and Valladolid. It was a wonderful day. The archeological site is really interesting and you can climb the pyramid. The cenote is amazing and Valladolid is a nice colorful Mexican city. The food was super good and our guides Alan and Pastor did a great job!

The tour was very good, Norma is very passionate about the topic and we learnt new things about the Mayan people and they culture. Everything went very smoothly, our guides were very attentive ,helpful and funny. We had all included options and it was good value for money.

The guide, the driver, the food, the location… everything it was excellent !! You are planning on coming back and try to get the same guide!
