Our tour experience was amazing and in my opinion, a great value for the price. Day was long, as advertised. They picked us up promptly and as scheduled at 7:15 am and we got back after 8 pm. In my opinion, the pacing was good, but again long. First Tulum, for about an hour and a half, which was very hot. Then Coba for about an hour, cenote (very fun and refreshing —there were turtles and fishes) with typical buffet lunch and Playa del Carmen at the end (which felt a little rushed). We really enjoyed both, our driver, Gerardo, and tour guide, Zeferino. They seem to work well together. Zeferino was informative, passionate, and funny. He had a white board which he used throughout the day to cover info/historical facts, etc. The tour was small which I like and prefer. I would suggest to bring lots of drinks/water (cheaper than buying on site) and snacks for the morning portion. Lunch is on the later side, but in my opinion very good. While at Coba take the bicycle taxi, unique and efficient. Lunch was a buffet with both pork and chicken dishes typical from Yucatan, fresh and delicious. They had home made drinks on site, one which was like grape juice and horcheta, worth trying! Lastly, bring lots of sunblock, good walking shoes, and a hat!
