Good value for money - Given the price of admission to Chichen Itza, this excursion is very profitable! The excursion is supposed to be in English but neither the driver nor the guide on site spoke English, so I spent the day working on my Spanish, which is no worse but if you don’t speak it at all, it’s not nice! The visit to Chichen Itza was nice but I would have preferred the guide to stay longer with us because the site is very large and we do not have much time to discover it without knowing it during our free time.

Chichen itza made it worth it - The communication about departure is not great, you really have to call them to confirm pick up point and time. I got picked up from the church at 9:20 instead of 9am at the hotel. Went to a first cenote with the driver and could only stay there 30min (I guess because we left late) after that, I've joined a bigger group that had a different package and could get drinks that I wasn't allowed to. We stopped atmaya village, which is a tourist trap with over priced item blessed by a shaman. Then, went to another cenote and buffet for 1:30hrs. We finished at the temple at the heat pick of the day. The visit itself was great, it was way too hot to focus on the guide but it's worth the visit because of it's history and well preserved structure. I would chose another tour for chichen itza and the cenote if possible. I would avoid buffet in general in Mexico for the hygiene and avoiding being sick

Poor communication. - They canceled the tour for me because Chichen was closed, which is not their fault, but they could have managed it better. To begin with, it does not state anywhere the time the tour starts; I wrote to them four days in advance asking, and they did not respond. They wrote to me at ten o'clock the night before the tour, which started at 9 in the morning, perfect for organizing myself. The next day, the van arrived twenty minutes late and told me that Chichen was closed and that if I wanted, I could only see the Mayan village and the cenotes for the same price. Obviously, I declined; they prefer to try to sell you an activity at an overpriced rate rather than being honest and notifying you beforehand, good values.

Go somewhere else or go at a time when there are fewer tourists. - Don't go on this tour unless you want to be stuck in an overcrowded van to sites that are overcrowded with too many tourists. The first cenote experience felt like an overused amusement site where tourists are herded from van to life vest stand to crowded cenote. The so called "mayan village" is even more of a joke, you are dropped off at a van parking lot, greeted with a quick Mayan blessing and then let loose into a trinket shop filled with over-priced items - hardly a Mayan village experience. At this point, we bailed on the remainder of the tour and were lucky to get a ride back into town. We will not be back. There are many other places to enjoy that are more authentic than this offering.

1 hour before time... - 1 hour before pickup time we were canceled the tour. I had to WhatsApp him myself. I have been informed that the minimum number of participants has not been reached. They could have told me the day before (or the night before), I would have arranged differently.
