This guided walking tour was great. Our guide Joel was extremely knowledgeable and kind. Would recommend this tour if you are visiting the ruins. I truly believe you would not get as much out of visiting if you did not have a guide like Joel. You do have access to the beach after the tour, so I would suggest getting your money’s worth by preparing to go after.

The guide was very knowledgeable and insightful! Have a lot of context and answered questions. The entrance fee to the park and ruins was a little pricey but there’s lots of beaches and other spots to visit once you’re inside.
