Customer Reviews
Wow what an energy! Must visit for everyone! Wonder of the world. The structure, location, tour guides, the grounds are just breathtaking. 2hours are not enough to cover everything. Highly recommend private tour, to learn the unique placement, and construction of the structure. The grounds are filled with peddlers, a bit annoying but can buy hand made items way more affordably. Highly recommend!
Pastor & Baltazar were a great team guiding us through the whole trip and spilling mayan secrets :) Cenote was amazing after the day off heat, definitely worth to try experience. And tequila - well, to sie for. Please come with checked in bagage so that you can bring lots of it home!
We’re really glad we arrived around 7:30 a.m., as it helped us avoid some of the larger crowds and made the experience much more enjoyable. We drove ourselves and want to strongly recommend not stopping for anyone trying to flag you down on the road. They are either guides trying to sell tours or parking attendants directing you to unofficial parking areas. Just continue driving straight to the main entrance and park there, it’s clearly the correct spot and costs 120 pesos. Once you arrive at the entrance, there are plenty of official guides available, so there’s no need to arrange anything ahead of time. An English-language tour costs 1,300 pesos. We teamed up with another couple and split the cost, which made it feel very reasonable. There didn’t seem to be much room for negotiation on the price, but they did accept credit cards, which was convenient. One big advantage of hiring a guide is that they can sell you the admission tickets directly, allowing you to skip the ticket line altogether, definitely a nice perk. Overall, the guided tour was informative and enjoyable. That said, there are so many guides around that you could easily listen in on nearby tours if you prefer to explore on your own and still learn along the way. Overall, it was a good experience and arriving early made a big difference.
