I ended up going on the tour alone, as my husband was feeling sick the morning we were supposed to leave. The tour company was very understanding and encouraged me to not lose out and go on my own, and I'm so glad I did!
Francisco has been working at and with the site for a long time, a very knowledgeable anthropologist and an exceptional tour guide! I learned a lot about the history of the area (3,000 years old!) and was blown away by everything Francisco taught me. The museum itself is small, but worth it. The ceremonial center and Mesoamerican ball court were cool to see. A local (professional traditional) dancer did a ceremonial dance for us that was enlightening to see. And the lunch was great at the roadside cafe stop on the way back. Some of the best tortillas I've ever eaten.
Overall, a great experience! Highly recommend it!

Francisco’s knowledge of the history was exceptional. Because the museum was all in Spanish he carefully explained all the details.
