Outstanding tour with Max and Jose, we visited each of the sites advertised and had ample time at each. Max’s knowledge and experience is second to none. Our hotel was very centrally located in Merida and we had the later afternoon and whole evening to spend in the city. We felt safe throughout. Would highly recommend this tour.

Our tour was a private family tour. Our tour guide Alberto and driver Jesus were professional and accommodating. Alberto was knowledgeable and provided interesting information about the Maya Civilization. Loved seeing the temples and being able to climb some of the steps in Uxmal was a once and lifetime experiences. Chichen Itza was amazing to experiences and a location worth visiting again.

This is by far one of the best trips offered in the Yucatan. We got to experience everything! From the majestic ruins of Uxmal with its impressive architecture and off-the-beaten path feel (we were only 2 out of 10 people in the whole site), to the colonial streets of Merida (where we stayed at a beautiful colonial hotel blocks away from the main square), to the world wonder that is Chichen Itza, to swimming in one of the best cenotes ever, this trip was a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Our guide/driver was Abram was so knowledgeable and so patient. Not only did he shows us things we could have missed (like another set of ruins in Chichen Itza), to making sure we captured every detail in our photographs (he took us to the best spots). I highly recommend this tour! You'll not be disappointed and will rave about to your family and friends.

This tour of Uxmal, Merida, Izamal and Chichen Itza was excellent value and great fun.The guide (Abraham) who was very knowledgable and helpful, picked us up punctually in a spotless and clearly well maintained minibus.There were no extraneous sales stops at 'Carpet Weavers' or other local artisans, and the tour never felt rushed.DAY 1Uxmal is much quieter, but just as impressive as Chichen Itza, and so felt much more intimate.There was ample free time to explore Merida, and the hotel was excellent.DAY 2Izamal is very pretty and makes a fabulous coffee break, whilst Chichen Itza itself is unmissableOverall excelkent and highly recommended.

We werden opgehaald door Simon, die zich al snel ontpopte tot een ware Indiana Jones, en Jesus, de chauffeur. De hele reis vertelde hij ons zeer gepassioneerd over de cultuur en archeologie van de Maya's, maar ook over het Mexico van vandaag en haar charmes en moeilijkheden. De gids gaf nuttige tips en adviezen. Onder zijn begeleiding kwamen de plaatsen die we bezochten tot leven en zagen we de oude tijden herleven. Uxmal is een bijzondere plaats, en hoewel misschien niet zo gekend als Chichen Itza, zeker even mooi. De kennismaking met Mérida voelde als een warme afwisseling met Cancun en weerspiegelde meer van de mexicaanse cultuur (de markt met fruit en groenten was een grote meerwaarde). Daags nadien was Izamal ook een prachtige stop, evenals Chichen Itza, waar Simon ons meenam naar de 3 verschillende Maya tijdperken en de menigte toeristen wat ontsnapte.
De hele ervaring is enorm gewaardeerd en we zijn hiervoor erg dankbaar!
