Excellent tour, great guide and beautiful surroundings - We had a great time on this tour. We were a group of five and were paired with a group of 4 so nine of us total on this tour. Our guide Antonio was excellent. He took to the time to point out details that we might have missed. I had been to Chichen Itza before and he provided facts that I had not heard on my previous visit that enriched the overall experience. The Cenote and lunch spot were great. The cenote was beautiful and the included lunch was delicious. I highly recommend that you visit Coba. It is a much less known archeological site compared to Chichen Itza or even Ek Balam, but has extensive history in the classical period of Mayan culture. Being less well known, there are less tourists here and you get to explore the ruins in a much more peaceful atmosphere. There are bicycles for rent, or if you'd like you can hire a bicycle taxi to take you to each site for $150 pesos round trip. Overall, this tour was very well organized, the driver was prompt, safe and courteous. We can't thank Antonio enough for his insights as well his great restaurant recommendations for the rest of our time in Playa del Carmen.

Maria was amazing! - Our tour guide, Maria, was absolutely amazing. She was knowledgeable, friendly, and funny. This was a long trip but well worth it. Seeing Coba at the end was awesome as it is a lesser known sight.

Exactly as advertised! - The trip was exactly as advertised! After reading many reviews on other tours, I was worried there may be some surprise charges and there was not. Julian and Jesus were very accommodating. Jesus, our guide, is very knowledgeable and knows the sites and people working there. Our tour was ahead of the crowds at Chichen and Ik Kil. As we left both places there were droves of people in line to get in. There was not a big selection at the buffet, but the fresh cochinita (Mayan pork entre), corn tortillas and pico de gallo were delicious. Coba is a less known site, but worth the visit as it enhances your understanding of the great Mayan civilization and their history. I am very happy we booked this excursion!

Amazing Tour - It was a great day. I have to say that our tour guide Maria (Mimi) was one of the best guides I ever had. She was very knowledgeable and friendly. It made the whole day even better. It is the whole day tour but totally worth it. We saw the great Chichen Itza when there was not so many people as this tour starts early. Then we swam in the beautiful cenote. After tasty lunch we had to another great place of Coba.

Lots of history, small group - Communication before the tour was good. I was contacted by WhatsApp to reschedule due to maintenance going on in Coba, they gave me the option to refund and cancel or reschedule, which I did. Then the day before, they gave me pickup time. Pickup was around 6 AM at my hotel and on time. The van was comfortable, and I was offered water, juice, cookies and banana, but if you are used to a bigger breakfast, it’s best to take some snacks. We also did a toilet stop on the way, bring some coins to pay for using the toilet. We were with an English speaking guide, Antonio, who was very good. We were 7 who spoke English. There was also a Spanish guide for 2 Spanish people and a driver. The tour was awesome since we beat the crowds at each stop. We left early but that allowed us to enter Chichen Itza just as it was opening around 8.30, fewer crowds, and when we left around 10.30 big crowds were coming in. The ruins were exceptional, and our guide took many pictures of each person in the group. We then had around 45 min on our own. We then drove to the cenote. Facilities were clean, we also beat the crowds there for the swim and the buffet. Buffet was good. The swim was refreshing. When we left, big crowds were lining up for the buffet. Then we drove to Coba, which had less tourists there, it was quieter. It’s best to bring cash to explore the site. Since it is vast, you have the option of renting a bike, or hiring a tricycle (150 pesos to bring you there and back to the start), or you can walk. However since we were tired and it was hot, no one chose to walk. So bring some cash for that. I returned to my hotel around 5.30 PM. The day went by fast, interesting guide, I recommend it.

Excellent day out. - The trip was great fun. Our driver and guide arrived on time and got us around with ease in an air conditioned van, which was needed in such hot weather! We arrived at Chichen Itza at 8.30am and could get photos with barely anyone around and beat the hottest parts of the day. The cenote was amazing and such a great way to cool down before heading to Coba.
