We had a wonderful time on our trip to Chichen Itza and the cenote swim. Jorge was such a well prepared guide and had photos with him and historical knowledge that really enhanced the trip. Giovanni was a great driver and was efficient with travel. We took the tour with 3 kids and the private tour was accomodating to the kid’s needs. This excursion was the highlight of our Mexico trip. Thank you!

Our guide Fernando picked our group of 14 up from the hotel and lead a very informative tour of the ruins. He was funny and fun. The trip to the cenote was amazing and we highly recommend this tour.
