Fantastic and memorable day out. Chichen Itza was beautiful even though the warmth of the sun was intense. The food at the restaurant was amazing, much much better than expected! A true taste of Mexico. The cenote was most welcome to cool off and was a beautiful tranquil setting. Not busy and able to enjoy the surroundings and watch some of visitors show off their diving skills. Our young son still talks about this day out and was the definite highlight of our family holiday in Mexico. Our guide Lily was very knowledgeable and passionate about explaining the culture and history of this part of Mexico. She was great with our son too always making sure he was ok in the heat. It’s a long day for a young child but he loved it! An amazing day, fantastic guide and would highly recommend this tour. Highlight of our holiday 11 out 10

Highly recommend the company. Very good value for money. Small groups, with a lovely personal touch. Well organised and planned so that you get to Chichen Itza before crowds and get a lovely lunch included. The Cenotes were amazing and quiet as turned out to be just our small group of 9ppl, so we got to enjoy it to our full extent.

This trip was perfect. Highly recommend if you are seriously interested in Mayan history and Chichen Itza. All accommodations were seamless, and my guide made the experience really special. I’m so glad I went on this tour instead of trying to travel there by myself.
