Great guide who was full of information and jokes, and looked after us every step of the way. Early start enabled us to arrive at the attractions before the coaches, a real bonus.

We had a fantastic day thanks to our dedicated and cheerful guides Maria & Gabriel and our trusted driver Omar. From the beginning until the end we were in good hands and were able to explore the sites on our own but learned many interesting facts thanks to the guides. An absolute recommendation for everyone visiting Cancun.

Excellent. Could not have been better Transportation was excellent and driver was calm and easy going. Great to get there before onslaught of masses arrive. Had we went on our own, it would have been just okay to see all old structures, but with a superb tor guide the information and context made it remarkable. Cenote was good and a little down time in Vallovalid was relaxing.

Two of my friends and I were extremely excited to take this tour. The van picked us up at 0600 in front of our hotel. We were greeted by one of the tour guides, Tona. Sadly that was when the issues began.
Upon entering the van we were asked for the $55 required for the Chichen Itza and Cenote tax fees. I counted out two $20 dollar bills, one $10 bill and one $5 dollar bill. I handed my friend who sat in front of me the money. She showed me all four bills and I counted for a third time that the amount was correct. As Tona (tour guide) took the money she noticed that the $10 bill I gave her had a small tear and asked if I had a different bill, which I replaced with a crisp $10. Then Tona presents 3 bills to me, replying that it wasn't enough money. I look and see one $20 dollar bill, the crisp $10 dollar bill and a $5 dollar bill. Being jet lagged and tired, I thought I had made a mistake and quickly handed Tona another $20. After doing so, the van began to move and I realized what had happened.
As I was about to confront tour guide Tona about what had just happened, I realized that I was in a van in a foreign country. Confrontation might not be the wisest thing at that point. Later my friend confirmed that I had handed her the correct amount. I took that $20 as a loss and/or a tip.
Our Tour guide for the English language group was Gabo. Gabo was very informed on Mayan history and made the rest of our day very pleasant. We were taken off the beaten path that most tours go through. Gabo took time to explain the intricacies of Mayan culture, as well as the mysteries of such an advanced ancient society.
We ended our trip swimming in a Cenote. The Cenote was filled with refreshing water and a feel of adventure. Lunch was provided but it was nothing to write home about.
Our tour ended and we had expected to be back to our hotel by 5pm. I am unsure if it was the driver Librido, Tona, or Gabo's idea to give two of their friend's a ride home. We were not asked or told anything about giving their friends a ride but it added an extra 2 hours to our journey.
If you decide to take this tour, don't allow jet lag to give Tona the opportunity to steal from you. Be prepared to add an extra 2 hours onto your trip back to the hotel.

Our driver was Alberto and our tour guides were Angel and Eder. We had 9 people in our shuttle, which arrived very promptly at 5:40 am. We were a little dismayed that the $40 per adult, $5 per kid, and $15 for Cancun pickup did not describe its $15 per passenger, so we were surprised that we were asked for $225 upon pickup on top of the nearly $700 we paid for the tour. (We were expecting $135 + $15)
They gave us banana, cookies, and juice when we arrived. It seemed early, but made sense when we were in the first 100 people and 20 shuttles to arrive at the park before the gates even opened. They made a few stops for gas an bathrooms along the 2.5-3 hr ride to Chichen Itza. The shuttle was super clean and comfy.
Our tour guide Eder explained as much history as we wanted / our kids could handle in English. They gave us free time to walk around Chichen Itza and explore this magical place!!
Then a 20 min ride to Ik Kil Cenote, which was so cool!!! The kids loved the buffet lunch / drink. The Cenote was gooorrrrgeous and hubby/ oldest kid had a blast jumping off the tall rocks.
Then about an hour ride to La Vallodalid, which was a bit less cool than expected! The city is pretty economically oppressed, but there was a cute town center to walk around in for an hour.
Our ride home was a bit wild due to Alberto rapidly dodging potholes, but otherwise not very notable. We were back around 5:30, for a round trip of about 12 hours. Definitely recommend this tour for an awesome dose of Mexican culture and history!
