The experience with Luiz and Alfredo was phenomenal. The extent of knowledge disbursed was excellent. Mr. Alfredo was engaging and very professional. Highly recommended.

This experience is so worth it! Eduardo was a great driver and so kind. Alfredo, the tour guide, is so patient, passionate, funny and informative. Everything was planned well and flowed. It's a whole day adventure and the entire thing is a great time - the history and awe of the ruins, the gorgeous cenote that is a perfect cool activity after being in the sun, and good food. Go!

Full description

Travel back in time as you explore the Mayan  archaeological ruins of Chichén Itzá on a guided tour. Connect with nature as you swim in the azure waters of the Cenote. Eat a mouth-watering buffet lunch and take a guided walking tour of Valladolid. Benefit from pick-up at your hotel, or a nearby meeting point, and then journey to one of the most important monuments on the Yucatán Peninsula.   Upon arrival at Chichén Itzá, look at the step pyramid of Kukulcan, known for the play of light from the equinox that casts shadows on each step to create an image of a serpent descending.   Go to the sacred Cenote and experience one of the sinkholes that form part of a network of underground rivers sacred to the Maya people. Enjoy a delicious buffet meal and take a stroll around the colonial city of Valladolid to complete your experience.
