5-daagse Maya Heritage History Tour

This was an unforgettable trip that I will cherish forever! Our tour guide, Tony, was extremely knowledgeable and great to talk to. He had an answer to almost each and every question we could possibly ask- and if he didn't, he would do a bit of research and get the answer right back to us. Tony was fluent in both English and Spanish, effortlessly switching languages back and forth throughout each conversation. Our group was a mix of Spanish and English speakers so this worked out super well, additionally helping me improve my Spanish and the Spanish speakers with their English. My favorite site was Becán; not only was it beautiful and unique, but it was virtually empty in terms of other tourists. Some of the other places we visited were Edzná, Chichen Itza, Palenque, Tulum, and a few others than I can't quite remember the names of. Our driver, Moy, was super nice and fun to talk to, not to mention driving us all around every day. By the end of the trip we had been through 5 different states, visiting multiple Maya archaeological sites and several amazing cities. I learned so much and had a blast being able to see so many historic sites in person that most people only ever see on their phones. I'm extremely glad I decided to come on this tour and would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone interested!

This was an extraordinary trip! We went to many Mayan sites including some of the less known ones that allowed us to climb up temple steps and really explore in a way one cannot do at the more well known sites. And of course we also spent time at Chichen Itza and Tulum, along with throngs of people. The places were incredible - and the guide, Tony, was extraordinary. He knew so much about the history and architecture - he was truly a fount of information. He also was incredibly bilingual, going back and forth between English and Spanish (there was an Argentinian couple as well as three of us from the US) with complete ease. That allowed me to really raise the level of my own Spanish. Moy, our driver, was great at his job and was also simply a lovely person. The entire experience was well-planned and absolutely memorable. If you're on the fence, do it! One note: be aware that there's a ton of walking and stair climbing and you should be in pretty good shape to take this tour.

This tour enabled us to experience amazing sites up close, such as Edzna and Kohunlich, not included on typical tours. My daughter, our guide, Jose, and I were the only people at a few of the sites. It was like time traveling back to experience the amazing Mayan civilization. Our guide had a wealth of knowledge and tour management was very flexible and helpful before and during our tour.
