Uxmal, Kabah, Cacao and More!
This was an Amazing experience! Uxmal and Kabah were beautiful and being able to climb and interact with the ruins was amazing. Mauricio was a great guide and made sure both Spanish and English speakers got a full explanation. There were a few unexpected additions to the tour and at the cacao experience. It was a great day!

A wonderful tour with the fantastic Alice!
Our guide, Alice, and driver, Mr. Jamie, were absolutely fantastic - we truly loved this tour. Learning about the epic Maya history and mythology evident at Uxmal from Alice was a treat; the lunch spot offered incredibly tasty tacos; and the cenotes captured the magic of Mayan lands - a perfect way to top off the adventure! Cannot recommend this enough!

Long time in the bus is...
Long time in the bus is worth it, we saw Flamingos, Alligators and Pelicans. The colour of the Salt lake was amazing and a lot of photos were taken from local tourguide there from us in a professional way with our phones.
The food in the restaurant, which was included was average but service there was good

It was a great day! We...
It was a great day! We were lucky to get Jorge as a guide, a biologist with lots of interesting stories to tell us and a good sense of humor. We saw flamingos, a crocodile and a lot of other interesting fauna. The food and service at the beach was great

Family of 6 Had a Blast!
This was such a great experience! They were so knowledgable and we learned alot. I traveled with a 2 year old and everything was accessible. Starting with transportation it was cool and comfortable. Going early was definitely a good idea. We beat the crowds and most of the heat for Chichen Itza. Eating with a local family who also owned the cenote was awesome. Food was good and the cenote was refreshing. But beware it is steep to go down. We made it in time to climb pyramid and tour Izamal. Highly recommend this tour!

Our guide Inel gave us...
Our guide Inel gave us lots of information that helped us to appreciate Chichen Itza more than we would have on our own. We had plenty of free time to explore it on our own after her tour as well. The experience at the cenote was magical. The selection for lunch was limited but the food was good, especially the cochinita pibil. We honestly were too hot and tired to enjoy Izamal properly, but all in all it was a great day!

Great tour! So impressed
Our guide David and our driver Javier were both fantastic. Our group was a mix of Spanish and English speakers and believe me when I tell you that David repeated every single phrase in English/Spanish back-to-back even jokes which takes a lot of skill. He’s been doing the tour since the 90s so he’s had a lot of practice. So interesting and informative. Really enjoyed this tour.

Sammie was great!
Samuel (Sammie) made the experience so comfortable! I was the only English speaker in the tour and he seamlessly went from English to Spanish throughout the day. He also had a depth of knowledge and had ties to the Mayan culture that made the whole tour so relevant and unique!

Fun, Relaxing, and Beautiful Cenote Experience
Mauricio and Jorge gave us such a stress-free and fun experience! Mauricio was so kind and made sure we enjoyed our time while also relaxing with no worries. He was so knowledgeable and we learned a lot about the history of cenotes. The transportation was clean and smooth. I highly recommend this tour for anyone! My friend and I are two female travelers and we felt very safe and taken care of the entire experience. The cenotes we went to were also very beautiful and the food was great, there were options to relax on a couple of the properties we visited when we weren’t swimming in the cenotes which was very nice. 10000/10 experience, thank you Jorge and Mauricio for treating us as family!

So glad I booked this, it was a special day in my Mexico trip which I won't forget
We had an amazing day in the Celestún Biosphere reserve, in summary:
- an incredibly knowledgeable and friendly guide (Mauricio/Maui/Meow) and driver, he memorised the 20 guests' names in seconds. Mauricio pointed out all of the interesting wildlife and clearly knew his stuff and cared about the important ecosystem we were visiting
- Coatis and many beautiful tropical birds as you leave the bus and head to the boat
- exhilarating boat ride that put a huge smile on my face. The boat had a shade screen and life jackets were provided for us all
- We saw many birds including Ospreys, various herons, cormorants, vultures, pelicans and we were lucky enough to see about 30 flamingos (these are seasonal so be aware of that!)
- short ride through a mangrove tunnel, we saw a juvenile tiger heron, many bright crabs and even a small freshwater crocodile up close!
- stopped offshore for a Mayan bath. Don't hesitate, please just do it, the water is beautifully warm and very buoyant. The muddy sand is clean and incredibly fine, you will feel great afterwards, I didn't want to get out of the sea
- a beautiful fresh lunch on a quiet beach with some down time to swim/drink cocktails, or just chat with other travellers (about an hour and a half). I had the coconut shrimp which was a very generous portion and extremely tasty with a lovely fresh mango dip. My wife had the shrimp quesadillas and enjoyed them too.
- Overall we felt very safe walking along the beach in Celestún, the locals were friendly

This was one of the...
This was one of the highlights of our trip!!! We are so many delicious foods and had such an amazing time. I would definitely recommend doing this to learn your way around Merida and to find out where there are authentic, delicious places to eat!
We brought our 2 kids (6&8) with us and they loved it as well!

It was great! The guide...
It was great! The guide was super friendly and helpful. He shared a lot of historic information about the areas we visited. It was nice to have some free time in the town so that everyone could do what they wanted. The cenotes were lots of fun and we were given the perfect amount of time to visit each. There was also barely any waiting time between activities. Overall everything was very well organized. Would definitely recommend!

Merida is a colorful, playful city with deep roots in Maya culture. Some of Mexico’s best food is here, with cochinita pibil, panuchos, and sopa de lima among them. But many visitors also use the city as a jumping-off point for majestic archeological zones such as Chichen Itza and lesser-known Uxmal and Kabah. Merida tours allow you to do everything even in limited time—go on a food walk, visit the ruins, and dip in a cenote.
