The driver and guide were professional friendly and helpful. There was only four people on this trip which worked out lucky for us! The first stop was a Chichen itzá. The pyramid is magnificent a fantastic site. It was an early pickup at 6.40am which was worth it as we arrived at Chichen itzá ahead of the crowd. The guide gave a good overview of Chichen itzá and mayan culture. The next stop was ek- Balam. This was a great stop as unlike Chichen itzá you and climb to the top of the pyramid and get great views over the jungle. We then drove on to the cenote were we had lunch. The food was mediocre with a biscuit offered for desert. We then got changed and went to the cenote that was on the same site. We had already been to Teo cenotes on previous trips but what I liked about this cenote that the other cenotes did have - was the fish that nibble on dead skin. It was so therapeutic feeling the tickle of there mouths on your feet and legs. Overall a great trip!

Great day! Hands down a small group is the way to go. Gus was basically a private tour guide cause there was only 1 other English speaking person in the tour. (There were only 4 people totally on this trip). I was hesitant about the early pickup, but getting there early was the way go, chichen itza was packed with huge groups as we left. The visit to ek balam was incredible too, climbing the ruins was such a great surprise and the views were breathtaking. The visit to Hubiku was incredible too, the cenote was huge…and a refreshing way to end the journey. Highly recommend.

Fantastic tour to chichen itza, Ek balam and a cenote. Very packed day with early departure but turned out to be great to avoid the crowd and the heat in Chichen itza. We were also able to climb up the temple in Ek balam to see the ruins sticking out from the tree tops. Our guide Tonantzin is very warm and knowledgeable. She gave very detailed explanations and answered all our questions. Our driver German was also friendly and patient during the whole trip. Overall we had a great experience and felt our day was very well spent

What a wonderful experience! Dona Nancy was our English speaking guide. Very long day, gone from 5 am to 8 pm but Nancy took very good care of us. Plenty of water, air conditioned van and food. I was so glad we left early as we got to Chichen before the crowds. Nancy goes in depth to the Mayan culture and history, she is so knowledgeable and amazing to be with. You have the chance to hike up Ek Balam and view the other pyramids from high in the air. The drive between attractions are long, but the roads are very good and the whole drive is flat. Very smooth ride. Nancy makes sure all your questions are answered, and takes you to behind the scene places. Really a once in a lifetime experience, I cannot recommend it enough. Because of the length of the day, best for adults only, or perhaps teenagers who enjoy history and adventure.

We had the experience of a lifetime! I have wanted to see the Mayan Pyramids for more than 20 years and this was the perfect way to see them. Our driver, Julian, picked us up right on time, and after picking up our other 4 passengers and guides (Jesus and Maria) we were on our way. Jesus was such a pleasure to have as a guide. He is very knowable about Mayan history and how the Mayan cities changed as new cultures mixed with them. We first visited Chichen Itza and had such a fascinating time learning about the people and ruins that the three hours we spent there flew by. We then went to Ek Balam, and the small group, made for an amazing and intimate experience. This is where Jesus really shined as our guide. He shared with us so many details and you could tell he really loves the culture and ruins. We climbed the main structure there “Acropolis” and the view from on top was truly amazing. After Ek Balam we headed to Cenote Hubiku and had a wonderful lunch, before relaxing in the beautiful waters. This cenote is HUGE! Jesus said it wasn’t the biggest in the area, but we only had ten people to share it with, and it felt gigantic. After the swim we were off back to our hotel, where Julian expertly navigated traffic. We were safely back at our hotel with many wonderful memories and pictures. Amazing crew! Thank you!
