Can’t think of a better way to see Chichen Itza - Had the best tour with Alex. He was super knowledgeable, loved that he told us a load of info during the journey which made it fly by and meant we could get straight to the good bits and out of the sun (and rain) when we got there. Hotel pick up was smooth, tour was the exact right length and we were given the option a few times to stay longer or move on

Excellent insightful tour - We had a great private visit around the splendid Mayan site, arriving just before it opens so we were first around the site.

Private tour of Chichen Itza for Joshua and Rodrigo - We had the pleasure of Joshua (our guide) and Rodrigo’s (our driver) company for you half day tour of Chichen Itza and lunch in Valladolid. It was an early start but it was 2+ hours from our hotel so that was just fine. Rodrigo was excellent and got us there safe and sound and was punctual when it came to picking us up afterwards. Joshua was an excellent guide and very knowledgeable. He was also great company at lunch. Can’t recommend these two guys enough so please request them if you are lucky enough to go and see Chichen Itza. The place itself speaks for itself and is well worth the trip :)

Excellent Tour to Chichén Itzá - We booked a private tour to Chichén Itzá with Absolute Adventures from our hotel in Playa del Carmen and it was a highlight of our holiday. Booking was straightforward, and communication beforehand was excellent with quick responses to queries and helpful updates. Our guide Josh was outstanding. He was knowledgeable, thoughtful and always checking to make sure we were comfortable. Given how hot it was, he sought to give parts of the tour in the shade where he could and took some great family photos for us. Our driver Enrique was punctual, professional and drove us safely in a comfortable, air-conditioned van stocked with cold drinks. A great tour. Would highly recommend.

Chichen Itza + Valladolid private tour was amazing! - We did the Chichen Itza tour with a stop in Valladolid. This was a fantastic experience. Josh (our tour guide) and Omar (our driver) made it a great experience. Josh was super knowledgeable and taught us so much about the cultural and historical aspects of the region. He also took pictures of us Beating the crowds made this so much more manageable. We were able to get photos with practically no one around. No fighting for spots. The experience included some drinks and snacks as well as a stop for breakfast and lunch in Valladolid. Definitely worth the extra for us to book private but I imagine this would still be awesome without spending the extra of you don't mind sharing a ride with others.
