Chichen Itza, Cenote, and Valladolid Tour

I7483LEvictorr, Sep 2026

Best tour ever

My experience was absolutely incredible, from beginning to end. our tour guide was Cesar and he was absolutely the best. he loves what he does and it shows. professional, polite and never whitewashed anything. loved it. I will book again with him and I would recommend him to anyone who is more into learning about the Mayans history and culture. I would pay double what I paid and still feel happy with the great service. Can’t say enough, the buses were new and clean. WOW Great experience thank you guys!

An incredible and Safe day exploring Chichen Itza, Cenote and Valladolid

This tour was a superb experience from start to finish!If you are worried about safety in Mexico, let this review put your mind at ease. Throughout the entire trip, I felt completely secure and never once felt like I was in any danger. The Tour Guide: Our guide was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and shared fascinating details about Mayan history and the local culture that brought every stop to life.The Itinerary: Visiting Chichén Itzá, cooling off at the stunning cenote, and stopping by Valladolid made for a packed but wonderfully organized day. Bonus: the food at the buffet near the cenote was genuinely delicious!The Transportation: A huge thank you to our bus driver, who navigated the roads smoothly and picked us up and dropped us back off at our hotel safely.I would 100% recommend this tour to anyone planning to visit these iconic spots. You are in great hands!Ps: Gracias Cesar 👏

Isla Mujeres Cruise with Beach Club, Snorkel, Lunch and Open Bar

jessicafQ7817QF, Sep 2026

Amazing Cruise Experience to Isla Mujeres! 🌴☀️

We had such an amazing time on our cruise to Isla Mujeres on September 9, 2026! The entire crew was absolutely wonderful and went above and beyond to make sure everyone had a great experience. ❤️ A special shoutout to Peter, our tour guide, who was absolutely amazing! He was so friendly, knowledgeable, and made the experience even more fun. 🙌🏼 Our captain was also incredibly nice, and the whole crew made us feel welcomed and taken care of from start to finish. And I have to mention the two guys at the bar—they were on top of it! 😂🍹 We could barely finish one drink before they were already ready with the next one! They kept the drinks flowing and the good vibes going all day. 🍹 I wish I remembered everyone’s names because the entire team on September 9th deserves recognition. They were friendly, attentive, fun, and truly made our day special. We HIGHLY recommend this cruise! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If you’re thinking about visiting Isla Mujeres, definitely book with them—you won’t regret it! 🌴💙

Early morning Chichen Itza Tour: Cenote and Tequila Tasting

L2171JFrhondas, Sep 2026

LONG day but worth it

We were staying in Puerto Morales and we were picked up at 6:30 am. We were dropped back at our resort at 8:30 pm. It was a very long day! That being said, although extremely hot, chichen itza was amazing. Cesar was an excellent guide. He is very passionate and knowledgeable. Swimming in the cenote was so refreshing. Lunch was tasty. Tequila tasting was fun and educational.

Magical Cenote and Paradise Lagoon Snorkeling Adventure

cassandrarA8674DU, Sep 2026

Great!

We did the cenote and lagoon tour on our honeymoon. It was around $180.00 for two of us. They do try to get you with a $40 per person photo fee. You can take photos at the lagoon but not the cenote. It was very enjoyable. Pickup was right on time and explained very thoroughly in the email. It was a smooth process. The van was comfortable and spacious. Fernando was sweet and a great driver. We picked up other passengers along the way. There was around 14 of us I believe. We ended up getting to Yal Ku. JJ was a wonderful tour guide explaining natural history and explaining the process of how to snorkel. He helped us spot a sting ray, eel, and many other creatures. We then went to the cenote, which was gorgeous. JJ made sure to explain everything and added humor throughout. It was overall a great experience. Recommend.

Cancun Mayan Pass: ATV, Cenote, Zipline, Transportation & Horses

RAJ_S, Sep 2026

Must try - highly recommend

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐We had an absolutely amazing experience at Mayan Jungle Rush! From start to finish, we had such a great time. The ATV ride was one of the highlights—it was so much fun riding through the jungle. The zip lines were exciting, the cenote was beautiful and refreshing, and the horseback riding was a wonderful addition to the experience.The staff and guides were friendly, energetic, and attentive. They made sure everyone felt safe and comfortable throughout all the activities. Everything was well organized, and the experience offered a perfect mix of adventure, nature, and fun.They also have a shop where you can purchase souvenirs and other items. The prices were a little on the expensive side, but honestly, that’s understandable considering you’re in the middle of the jungle. It’s also convenient to have everything available there, especially if you need something at the last minute.**A few tips for anyone going:** Bring bug spray, wear shoes that you don’t mind getting dirty or wet, and bring regular sunglasses. You’ll definitely be spending time in the jungle, so come prepared!Overall, we had an unforgettable day and would definitely recommend Mayan Jungle Rush to anyone visiting the Cancun or Puerto Morelos area. 🌴🏍️🐎💦
