True Mayan Experience - Overall the tour was fantastic.
Carlos Moo our tour guide was very informative and his passion about the Mayan culture was inspiring. He is a man of pure Mayan heritage which translated into his enthusiasm and delivery of all things Mayan.
Most notably his knowledge of the main attraction of Chichen Itza and all the surrounding structures was amazing.
He also knows all the best picture taking spots if you’re into all that.
Carlos gets the special mention as he was the crew member we spent the most time with, but that doesn’t take away anything from the other guys as they were amazing too.
Angel is a funny and charismatic man who is equally as knowledgeable as Carlos as he too is of Mayan heritage.
Eli the driver who drove for many hours and kilometres and did a grand job of that.
Enrique was the organiser of the tour and he did a top job of that enabling seamless transitions between activities and journeys.
One thing to mention is the crew of these tours work extremely long days of like 14-16 hours, so they really do care about the service they provide.
The activities were well planned with plenty of interaction and the pacing of the day was good, bearing in mind the distances covered between stops.
Lunch was a good time, with a buffet provided consisting of tacos with various fillings and a salad bar. During lunch you watch a Mayan performance with drums and traditional dress. After lunch you take a walk through the Mayan settlement and learn about various techniques of cooking and art.
After that, you get the opportunity to browse and buy Mayan art.
You have the opportunity to buy a cool little memento which is personal to you. With an illustrated date of birth in Mayan hieroglyphics, as well as, your name and various horoscopes based on the Mayan calendar and lunar cycles.
I recommend this tour to anyone who wants to experience true Mayan culture.

Wow!!! Impressive experience. - A spectacular day. Our guide, Diego, is a very experienced guide and with a lot of knowledge of what he talks about, he transmits his enthusiasm for Mayan culture in a contagious way. We loved it and made the visit, despite the heat, very enjoyable.
The word "wow" was the star of the visit and Diego had a lot to do with it.

Best tour ever thank you Maurizio and Mario - A Standout Experience
I recently joined a tour to Chichen Itza, Mexico, and my expectations were far surpassed—by a wide margin. I’ve traveled extensively, both within Mexico and around the world, and this was, without a doubt, the best tour I’ve ever experienced.
Maurizio and Mario were exceptional guides. They went above and beyond to ensure my group had the best possible time. They didn’t just shepherd us from one site to the next; they weaved in rich history and cultural context at every stop. Their passion for the sites, the culture, and the local way of life shone through in every story and explanation.
What stood out most was their attentiveness and ability to tailor the experience to our interests and pace. They anticipated questions, shared little-known details, and kept everyone engaged and comfortable throughout the day. Their professional warmth and thoughtful touches made the entire trip memorable.
Highlights:
Thorough, engaging explanations of history and culture at each stop
Personalized pacing and attention to the group
Genuine passion and care from Maurizio and Mario
If you’re weighing options for a Chichen Itza tour, this one comes highly recommended. It’s hands down the best tour I’ve had in all my years of traveling, and Maurizio and Mario truly made the site’s history and magic come alive.

Chichenitsa is amazing. - Chichenitsa is amazing. Cenote was also a difficult experience. The materials are overwhelmingly good, and the explanation of Chichen Itza was correct on key points, so I think I can be satisfied if I don't expect more.
However, you should not expect any of the gastronomic experiences mentioned in the tour title. After lunch, some of them went to the bathroom and I went, but when I got back, it seemed to be over. Or maybe it ended while I was sheltering from the rain because it was raining heavily when I got back from the toilet. In any case, it wasn't a long time, nor did they seem to think about waiting for everyone.
The morning guide on the move may have a strong element that led you to souvenirs, but it was interesting. Valladolid, however, was not sure where to look and how to look, and did not answer questions about the location of the stalls he had said himself. Free time instructions, including in Chichen Itza, are about, and I think you will lose money if you watch less or leave early with caution.
