Only reason it’s not a 5/5 is because we did not get a tequila tasting and we paid for the VIP but there was no difference in experience for the higher price. Besides that, Frank, our guide, and our driver, Luna, were excellent! Frank gave us a lot of information about the Mayans and we learned a lot! We even got our own Mayan birth chart. Luna was an excellent driver that made we got back safe. Would definitely recommend to family and friends.

This tour was an unbelievely thorough insight into Mayan culture, from BC to current day. You have to wake up early and go through a long coach journey (use the bathroom before the coach), but it is worth it as you arrive at chichen itza before the masses. Our tour guide, Rodrigo Cat, was a fantastic guide. He was organised, knowledgeable and incredibly good at English considering it was his third language. After Chichen we went to a smaller set of Mayan ruins, and were spoke to about them in Mayan by some people who lived nearby. For lunch you are served a traditional buffet and you're given time to browse shops full of Maya souvenirs. After this you swim in a centre before making the trip back. Bring money for tips, but you will be happy to give them out as this is as detailed, authentic and good value a tour as you can buy.

Took a long time to depart from our meeting point, I think the payment for Chichen-Itzá should be taken in the bus. Good amount at the archeological area but not much at the cenote and it was packed, maybe another one less busy? Quite annoying to have EVERYONE asking for tips for nothing. What do we pay £30/pp in a 50 people bus then? Someone takes your order? Tip. Someone serves you? Tip. Someone open the door? Tip. It becomes really annoying. Regarding our guide, she was fantastic. Alexa is funny, happy, she helps in everything she can and have good tips.
