We had a wonderful time on this tour with our fantastic tour guide, Riccardo and driver Abe. We were picked up from our hotel by both of them, and they were very friendly and ensured we were comfortable throughout the day. We were able to have some very interesting and enjoyable conversations throughout the drive to Chichen Itza. Riccardo, was very knowledgeable and gave us great insight into the history of this impressive site. He was able to bring to life the impressive buildings and pyramids, through sharing information about historical Mayan culture and some mythology. We were able to go at a relaxed pace and take pictures, with Riccardo showing us the best spots of this site. After the Chichen Itza we were taken to the Cenote, we had ample time to explore the Cenote and have a tasty lunch. The Cenote was very impressive with clear water and fish swimming around, it also had excellent facilities. Then it was time to head home. Riccardo and Abe were once again very accommodating and made us feel comfortable. We had a great conversation and plenty of laughs on the drive home.
A very well-thought-out tour. A knowledgeable guide. A lot of road dust—dress accordingly. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Hi Pavel, Thank you for taking the time to share your review. We truly appreciate your feedback and are glad to know you had a great experience with us.
We had a great time! In addition to Chichen Itza, we also took the Celestun tour and the Uxmal tour. We had the same guide for all three. His English was very good, and he was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable about everywhere we went. Our guide was also very accommodating, helping my mother with any light climbing there happened to be. He also happily took pictures for us, and even knew where particularly photogenic places at the sites were. I would absolutely recommend Merida Elite to anyone who wanted to visit.
Hello, Thank you for taking the time to share your review. We truly appreciate your feedback and are glad to know you had a great experience with us
I cannot recommend this experience & your enough. Our guide, Ricardo, and our driver, Alex, were the best. We got picked up directly at our hotel in the morning by a spacious, clean, and cool van. We even got to stop for coffee and a quick bite for breakfast on the way. Ricardo provided a great tour of Chichen Itza, along with its history and fun facts! We then proceeded to go swimming in a beautiful Cenote, arriving in time to be the first and only ones there. Afterwards we had lunch and then Alex drove us home. I could not recommend this tour and our guides any more. As a bonus, they had cold water, soda, beer and snacks for us for the car ride. Simply an incredible experience and worth every penny!

Hi Sabina, Thank you for taking the time to share your review. We truly appreciate your feedback, and are glad to know you had a good experience with us.
Angel the guide and Abimael the guide driver were both super friendly and decent. Angel showed himself to have extensive knowledge of Chichen Itza and knew many things that seemed only the knowledge of the architecture of the place. He knows things about the sound while others applauded that it really is impressive he also showed the resonance just by stepping hard. Etc. Colors photos videos. Very extensive knowledge of the place and very pleasant and fun. Abimael I can only say great human being. And if very friendly and fun too. I bought the tour 4 am and they arrived on time at the agreed place.

A really enjoyable trip with an excellent guide. Vincente spoke very good English and provided us with just the right amount of information.
Really great!! José was extremely knowledgeable about everything and the facts he have were very amusing. Also conversation other than the tour were extremely entertaining as well. The driver, Abimael was very polite and was always attentive to what I needed whether it be drinks or a break.
My sister and I did a tour of Chichen Itza, followed by a swim in a nearby cenote. The entire experience was absolutely amazing! The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable about the historical archeological site, which made it even more interesting. I would highly recommend taking this tour!!
