We had an absolutely fantastic trip to Chichén Itzá and the cenote with our guide, Fabricio. From the very start, everything was well organised. We were picked up from our hotel on time, and during the journey Fabricio shared fascinating facts and stories about the history and culture of the area. His knowledge was impressive, but what really made the journey enjoyable was his sense of humour—he kept everyone entertained throughout the drive. One of the biggest advantages of this tour was arriving at Chichén Itzá early in the morning. We avoided the crowds and queues, which made the experience so much more enjoyable. Fabricio gave us an excellent guided tour of the site, explaining the history and significance of the different structures before giving us plenty of free time to explore at our own pace. Afterwards, we headed to a beautiful cenote for a refreshing swim in a stunning freshwater cave. The cenote was absolutely spectacular, with crystal-clear water and even a swing you could use to jump into the pool—it felt like something out of a dream. Lunch was provided afterwards and, while simple buffet-style food with rice, beans, tacos and other local dishes, it was tasty and exactly what we needed after our swim. Our final stop was a charming local town, where we had free time to wander around and soak up the atmosphere. Throughout the entire day, we felt completely safe and well looked after by both Fabricio and our driver, Walter. We couldn’t have asked for a better day. If you’re looking for a well-organised, informative and enjoyable tour of Chichén Itzá and a cenote, we would highly recommend this experience—especially if you’re lucky enough to have Fabricio as your guide!

Our experience with Mimi, our guide, and Christian, our driver, was outstanding! Mimi’s deep knowledge of the history brought everything to life , she explained things in such a meaningful way that it completely changed how we understood the stories behind each place and person. Christian was equally wonderful , professional, friendly, and made every part of the trip comfortable and enjoyable. Together they made the day memorable, informative, and so much fun. Highly recommend both of them!

It was a wonderful day. We got to chichen itza before most of the other tourists got there, so there was a lot of space and less crowds to deal with. The cenote was great, and Thomas our guide was very charismatic and knowledgeable. Valladolid was also a cool experience.
Thank you so much for your kind words!

It was a pleasure having you with us, and we hope to welcome you again for another memorable adventure in the future! 🌎✨
The tour was very good. The guide was very instructive. He explained everything very well and in detail, answered every question. His name was Geronimo, I want to leave my congratulations, he was very kind throughout. I would have liked to have had a little more free time in Chichen Itza, since half an hour is not enough for much. Very good food, there was variety and everything very delicious. I'd like to say that the van has the seats very attached, you can't stretch your legs. That's the only thing to get better.
