Although the bus ride to Chichen Itza was long, it was enjoyable and worthwhile. Glad we decided on this excursion while visiting Pregreso while on a cruise.

This tour exceeded all our expectations. Chichen Itza is awesome, and the guide explained everything with a lot of passion. Then we swam in a spectacular cenote and ended the day in Valladolid, a beautiful town full of history. The Mexican buffet was delicious, with options for all tastes. 100% recommended!

The staff were all amazing during our trip. The driver made sure we git everywhere safe. The tour guide was very informational aswell as making the trip fun. Also they had someone bring us drinks whenever we needed and if you dont choose the full inclusive they made sure they had drinks to buy for very cheap. The trip was amazing and the staff all were super helpful. On our trip there were parents who would loose track of their kids and the staff went out of their way to insure the kids were safe even when the parents wouldnt go look for their own kids. They were not always treated the best by the guests but always made sure they smiled and were incredibly friendly and helpful whenever needed. The trip was really fun getting to learn alot about Mexico and the history of the Mayan people. I highly recommend booking if you have any doubts I suggest going. Amazing staff, amazing people and food, and a really good way to enjoy a beautiful trip while in mexico.
