    Fabulous day, well worth the money. Well recommend. Doing the cenote last would be great for cooling off. Very early pick up, 0600. No chance of getting breakfast. By lunch time we were very hungry. Should be more obvious that the trip times are from Cancun, add a couple of hours for transfers.

    The guides needed to be firmer with guests getting back on the coach late, it added about an hour to the trip and if you are an early pick up you will also be a very late drop off. Chichén Itzá was the star of the three destinations but they were all worthwhile.

    Traveled with a group of friends

    The guide was very knowledgeable and gave lots of information and facts on the tour and made sure we were looked after. However, at the end of the trip, at Valladolid, the guide took us to a shop where he knew the people and told us we could use the toilets there for free. However, upon entering, we were pushed by the staff to taste lots of tequila which in turn made us very ill that night and the next day. They then pushed us to buy products for high prices, taking advantage of our tipsy states

    3 activités différentes ne nous ont pas laissé profiter pleinement. Nous avons eu l’impression de passer plus de temps dans le transport. Cette activité m’a semblé être une embarcation à dépenser de l’argent plus qu’une découverte. Vraiment dommag.La guide Wendy lors du conte rapide de Chichén Itza n’a malheureusement pas été d’un bon encadrement. Elle nous a mis en garde contre les vendeurs mais nous a envoyé exclusivement vers Doña Rosita qui vendait un éventail et une petite pierre, 100 usd.

    Guide Sandro überzeugt mit sehr viel Wissen und Humor, Transport und Abholung ohne Probleme. Der Stopp in Valladolid ist etwas mäh - nette Kirche sonst ist der Stopp quasi nur eine Verkäufermeile. Kann den Trip nur empfehlen. Hinweis: Gebucht über die Tui App, der Tui Verkäufer im Hotel wollte fast den doppelten Preis
