History and Jungle, in one!

Lauren_W, Apr 2026

Octavio did a great job sharing his knowledge. He clearly has a passion for the Mayan culture and made the experience interesting for everyone- even our 15 and 13 year olds. The setting was gorgeous, and there were not any crowds, which made it even better- easy for us to explore as much as wanted. It is about 2 hours from Costa Maya port but the van had AC and plenty of water. They even offered stops at fruit stands or tamales! We made it back to the ship in time, too, despite the last minute departure time change by the ship.

Excellent Mayan Ruins Tour

Lindsay_P, Mar 2026

This experience was the highlight of our cruise. It was a bit of a drive but well worth it to get a bit away from the crowds and see some truly magnificent mayan ruins. The car was very comfortable and we were able to stop on the way, making it overall very pleasant. Daniel was an excellent, well informed guide who brought the ruins to life for us. The site itself is magnificent with several sets of buildings to explore of varrious types and the temple of the masks to climb. I would highly recommend for anyone who is interested in history and would like a personalized small group experience.

The guide was very...

Teri_F, Jan 2025

The guide was very knowledgeable and extremely helpful. The tour was fantastic. We traveled with a group of 12 of us. My mother was in a wheelchair. The driver of the van took my mother on her own private tour.

Great Experience--Would Happily Book Again!

Kelsey_M, Apr 2024

Had a wonderful time visiting ruins on a shore excursion. The instructions for pickup were clearly communicated and easy to follow. When our port times changed, they proactively let us know and suggested another itinerary to ensure we could have a great experience and get back on time. Our crew wanted to eat at an authentic stop, and they very happily accommodated that as well (and the food was stellar!). Loved having a guide to explain about the region on the way to the ruins and then provide information and point out things we would have missed at the ruins site. It was the perfect combination of information, guide, and time to explore.
