I liked the activities overall. it was a good day. everything was great and it's a good value. however the itinerary was not accurate. cenote was supposed to be after xichen itza, but they took us there in the middle of the afternoon heat so we didn't have a chance to cool off after which would have been nice. they also took us to their mayan town which was very nice where they fed us. very delicious. however it's a bit tourist trap like. with random 30 minutes of mandatory gift shop time at the town. I think it could've been better spent at the cenote which we only had 45 minutes at realistically. and the gift shop was pretty whack. they had outrageous prices for manufactured identical goods which were peddled as homemade. I would go again to support the town I just wish it had been as advertised
