Mayan ruin fun - Me and my family did this excursion on our port day from the royal caribbean cruise. I was a little skeptical about booking outside of the cruise line but viator is really good at giving you all the information you need. Our tour guide was Rafael. He was very friendly funny and knowledgeable about the area. I would highly recommend booking a tour with them and ask for Rafael.

Better than booking through cruise line - We enjoyed this tour, the guide was friendly and had definitely done his research. We were also in a smaller group which allowed for more flexibility and stops, we got to stop at places along the way to try different things. The ruins were beautiful and there was more of them than we thought, our guide took us to extra parts that others don't normally get to on the bigger tours. Afterwards our guide took us into Mahahual and recommended a good place to get some authentic Mexican food and shop at the local stalls for no extra charge, then waited and dropped us off back to the port afterwards. Would recommend

Great personalized and informative tour! - Our guide was amazing and so knowledgeable. Overall great tour. Loved the fact that it was a small group and he took the time to answer any questions we had. He even turned us on to some great local tamales and a quick stop to taste some local honey pineapple. Would definitely recommend this tour.

Last minute tour gone great - This was a last minute booking due to change in plans caused by Hurricane Helene. Octavio was our tour guide who came in on his day off when else saw the cruise ship pull into the port. Chaccoban was beautiful and Octavio was very knowledgeable. You can tell he was passionate about the Mayan ruins and teaching others about them.

great guide terrible van and stopping on side of busy road - our tour guide was amazing he really did such a great job. However the tour van smelled disgusting inside like an old tennis shoe and the air conditioner did not work.. also I felt very uncomfortable stopping on the side of the road for 15 minutes on the drive home to have some people try a pineapple. It seemed very dangerous given the culture of tourist being attacked in Mexico. I actually had a panic attack
