30 min - One of the most beautiful colonial cities of Yucatan and the first to be visited from the important tourist market of Quintana Roo is undoubtedly Valladolid, for the majesty of its temples and the ancestry of its old neighborhoods. After Mérida is the second city in importance and the oldest in Yucatan. Its streets and buildings preserve its glorious past and witnessed various indigenous uprisings, such as the so-called "War of Castes". Today it is a placid city where you can admire beautiful old houses, has great commercial dynamism and is a key point in the development of the state for its strategic location.

Just book!

Me and my girlfriend spent quite some time searching for company's and reading reviews and have been left 100% satisfied with the experience on offer. Yes you can find tours for less and take the gamble, pray that no hidden extra expenses crop up and that your tour guide is knowledgeable and happy.... roll that dice if that's your thing. Booking with this company resulted in a truly satisfying experience and most importantly kept that smile upon my GF's face, and NOT one of a mythical she-devil who could turn you to stone if you caught a glimpse of her! A big modern, comfy bus with AC arrived to pick us up and we were given cold water bottles to quench our thirst. Special mention to our tour guide Martin Pech who is very knowledgeable and impressed me with his clear English and million other languages in his portfolio of knowledge. Its clear that Martin truly loves his job and is passionate and proud of his Mayan heritage. Everything was, as is described on the website and had zero hidden expenses however, received some good advice on souvenirs resulting in purchasing something (of quality and not the usual tat I often return home with). Also after some tequila tasting in Valladolid its hard not to support the locals and come away with a bottle. (You can and should haggle on the price of the tequila.... the tequila is absolutely delicious and worth every Peso regardless of the cost). Convince the Mrs you ONLY want to help support the local community with your purchase and you too might be lucky enough to walk away with something fine to add your ever growing drink collection. Go for a swim in the beautiful cenote with refreshing water and enjoy a cracking selection of unlimited food to refuel..... enough said. JUST BOOK, AVOID THE STRESS AND STOP WASTING YOUR PRECIOUS AND WELL EARNED VACATION HOURS. AND.... FAO the tour company.... I hope Martin is well payed as you're lucky to have found this guy!!! #pay rise for Martin!!

Amazing Bucket List experience ✅

Amazing experience! Definitely recommend for anyone looking to see the real Mexico. Our tour guide Alex made the day very memorable. His English was flawless so we felt involved the whole time, he was very entertaining and very knowledgeable, also had the best playlist!! The bus was lovely and clean and the Aircon was a god send! Chichen Itza was bigger than we expected and very interesting, though I'd definitely recommend you look into Mayan mythology a bit before you go. The cenote was a bucket list experience, being in the jungle and rappelling into the water then having time to swim around. The Mayan ceremony was a nice touch and a chance to learn a bit more of the traditions. The food was traditional, very tasty and filling and served by very friendly native Mexicans.

Fun Culture Trip

Getting to see Chichen Itza was amazing and Martín Pech was super informative and had great stories about the culture. He was able to provide a lot of context for something that I knew very little about beforehand. I came away with a better understanding of the local culture and quite a few laughs as well. The food at the cenote was phenomenal and the quick stop in valladolid was a very cool experience.

Probably the best tour I’ve ever been on!!!

We had a tour with Alfredo, Alan and Norma and they were the best!! It was super interactive, we felt very taken care of. I visited Mexico with my friends, they were very welcoming and nice and the tour was a whole experience. We visited Chichen Itza, went swimming at a cenote and had a quick stop in Volladolid. We tried tequilas for free, took lots of pictures, the tour also included an open buffet of traditional Mexican food and a variety of snacks and fruits. Would 1000000% recommend to anyone visiting the country if you love learning more about the local culture and trying different types of food!!! ♥️
