Roami was a great tour...

Andrew_B, Dec 2025
Roami was a great tour guide! Experienced, friendly, and knowledgeable. The Cenote was very cool to swim in. The lunch at the Cenote is like a typical cafeteria- not good, but not terrible.

Excellent tour

Elaine_S, Jul 2025
This tour mixed a visit to the archeological site of Chichen itzá with a visit to a cenote before lunch. Hernán was an excellent guide who made the psyche of the Mayans come alive. The cenote we chose to visit was not commercialised and because we got there early we were the only ones swimming. Lunch was delicious and all in all I would highly recommend this tour.

Amazing Tour off the beaten track

Christina_S, Feb 2022
Great trip, with a very different vibe than what we had experienced so far. It truly was of the beaten track, and we had the cenotes for ourselves at two occasions. The family lunch was both very delicious and an authentic experience of life in Mexico. Hernan, the guide, was very knowledgeable and we could feel his passion for his country and tourism. Would highly recommend.

A great experience of local culture
