A Full Day of Beauty, Culture, and Adventure

5.00The full-day excursion was solid but not flawless. Our guide Pastor was phenomenal. Chichikan cenote was one of the real highlights; clean, stunning, and actually worth the hype. The tequila tasting felt more like a sales pitch than a cultural experience. The buffet lunch was average at best, nothing memorable. Valladolid was charming but rushed, and Chichén Itzá was impressive as always, though the crowds and heat made it feel overwhelming. Overall: worthwhile for the cenote and the ruins, but expect a long, packed day with some filler.
Honest Review: Uneven Excursion, but Chichén Itzá and the Guide Saved the Day

4.00The Chichikán Cenote was pretty average. I’ve been to better ones. I skipped the tequila tasting since I hadn’t eaten breakfast, and the buffet lunch wasn’t great. The Mexican tacos were probably the best thing there, but even those weren’t that great. Valladolid was also very normal; we only had about 30 minutes and just grabbed a coffee. What really made the tour better was our guide, Pastor. He was great, explained the Mayan history in a clear, engaging way and took some memorable photos of us at the pyramids that came out very cool. Chichén Itzá was by far the highlight of the entire day. Seeing it in person made the whole trip worth it, even if the other stops were underwhelming. The tour was well-organized overall.
It was alright…

3.00We booked this trip and it was fun but a little bit too long for our liking. The tequila tasting at the cenote was nice but apart from that the cenote experience was underwhelming (dirty water, lots of bugs, place felt like a tourist scam etc etc). I think the time in valladolid was very little, it felt rushed. Chichenitza was very nice though, I’d honestly prefer a straight trip with just that haha
Must do in Cancun

4.00Exceptional tour guide and excellent visits to Chichen Itza as well as Cenote - lunch - and tequila tasting. Valladolid was rushed and very late due to 90 minute delay starting the day. Highlight was the knowledge passed on by Marcella who was a gem
10/10 tour experience! Would recommend!

5.00Paul,Juan and Victor were great. Paul was very informative and have a great sense of humour, very funny guy. The tour itself was very long so prepare yourself for a 13h long day, but we managed to do a lot. Only thing I would recommend are pick up stops so we could have more time at the ruins, we felt a bit rushed there. Otherwise great trip it does worth the money and time.
