Absolutely phenomenal...
Absolutely phenomenal experience. This is with the official guides who are employed by the national park. They are knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. Jorge was our guide and gave a wonderful tour that was specific to what we wanted to see and know.

We did a private tour...
We did a private tour with Carlos from LakinTours, and it was one of the highlights of our entire trip. We felt very well taken care of throughout the process:
- a day before our tour, we got detailed guides on how to get to the parking lot and not get scammed by unaffiliated vendors at the entrance. The meeting point with Carlos was also called out clearly with picture.
- during the tour, Carlos has a very good itinerary of which places to take photos, which places to get up close and see important structural details, and which place to sit down for rest. Because of that, we got a ton of information without feeling overwhelmed, and we got great pics! We did Ek Balam the prior day without a guide and we felt absolutely wiped after it, but this tour makes us feel energized and inspired instead. Carlos is great at explaining things in English in understandable terms, and he has great photos to share (including some of his beautiful family photos!)
- Carlos also gave us great tip on which cenote we should hit up afterwards, and his recommendation is top notch. We had a great time there.
Overall, we highly recommend this tour!

Great experience
Great experience.
It requires good amount of walking if you want to cover all the structures so be prepared.
There are a couple of refreshments stalls and a sitting area in the middle of the compound to relax.
Guide is necessary but a private guide is quite expensive.
You can go with $10 audio guide (action app) that works about the same.

Best tour and guide!
We were six girls for my thirtieth birthday trip and all loved Pepe so much! He is so so knowledgeable and kind, and shared extra information with us than a bigger tour would have (two of us in the group had previously been to Chichen Itza on a bigger group tour and we agreed this was sooo much better!). His English was perfect and he was very helpful and easy to communicate with beforehand, too. At the end of the tour he gave us a recommendation for the cutest “hole in the wall” authentic Mexican restaurant which we loved! Thanks again, Pepe!!

Amazing tour but the bus ride is a one star
The tour is a FULL DAY tour. Leave around 8:00 am and don’t come back until 10:00 pm. The tour itself was enjoyable but it could have been condensed for us….it was 2:00 pm and we visited the cinote and were just starting lunch (5 hours in).
The sites were wonderful and the tour guides were very informative. Five stars for the team!!!
I do have to give THE TOUR BUS a one star though. Very uncomfortable ride for the journey. If the person in front of you puts their chair back, you literally have two inches of room. There’s a cup holder on the left that grinds into your left thighs and a seat lever on the right side that grinds into your right side. Overall, the bus was terrible for a 2.5-3.0 one way journey. If you have bad knees, I’d suggest taking a smaller tour with better space inside the vehicle. lol. Sound like a silly complaint but it’s a long journey to have the guy in front of you with his seat tilted back in your lap, a cup holder grinding your left thighs and a seat lever grinding your right side.
