Cancun Cultural & Theme Tours

Our guide Frank and driver Hose were really nice and the tour was really organized. Best tour we had. Historic places may not sound like the best place for kids but they made it so entertaining for the kids and our 7 and 9 year olds LOVED it. We cannot thank Frank and Hose enough. Thank you Amigo tours for having a great team!!

Fantastic experience! We had a great time! Favio was an awesome host! The boats were a lot of fun and the reef was absolutely amazing! Loved the day!

Great experience overall! The guides were very helpful, kind and very knowledgeable! All the stops were excellent - would recommend to anyone visiting!

Luis, Chucho and Arias were great hosts to our tour, they kept us entertained and hydrated through the whole experience. Totally recommended!

Great tour guide and tour! Fun and awesome! It's an unique experience. Hot weather but alright! Recommend it for anyone.

Trip was very exciting. Learned a lot about myan people. Tour guide was very helpful and informative.

First off let me say that the operators were the best I've ever had. Like hands down. 13 hour trip and they were amazing from the moment they grabbed us from the resort to dropping us off.If you want a quality tour this is the one to take. With Hector the operator, Juan the driver and Alfredo the man on the scene.Juan the driver was born to do this. He got us where we needed to be, kept the AC on and closed the curtains to ensure the bus was cool and didn't let any other bus or van take his spot or get in front of him. Juan rules.Hector the man behind it all was insanely knowledgeable, funny and gave a straight up 5 star guide of every aspect of the day. In both Spanish and fluent English for us gringos who couldn't learn Spanish in time to visit.Alfredo not only provided drinks but also kept everyone smiling and laughing, made sure everyone was in line, paid and ensured everyone had sunscreen bug spray and more. Plus the dude came out clutch at the end of the tour with blankets and sweet breads.These guys managed a 13 hour day with no BS and did it with style. 5 stops on time and on point. This is the one tour I'd absolutely take again and after being burned by operators or misleading promises on other tours in the area it was incredible to finally find one that gave everything that was promised.So yeah 10/10 Juan Hector and Alfredo are the people to see about this if you want a quality tour without having to worryThat being said there were a few issues that were out of their control and I'll detail them below. None of it could be controlled because people are going to do what people do.So here's the honest part you need to read1. Pick up: look, 7 am pick up means 7 am pick up. They grab people from 3-7 different resorts. Every resort they call you in advance to let you know they're coming. Then spend 5-10 minutes yelling your name out. If one group is late to the pick up spot it means the entire bus is 5-10 mins behind for the next resort, and if a group their is late it's 5-10 minutes late for the next one.So 7 am at the first resort can be 8 am at the last one. So be on time ok. Like actually outside ready to go2. Pack sunscreen towels and extra clothes. It's Mexico, inland. It's hot as hell. You're going swimming and the bus has fabric seats. If you don't have extra clothes it's miserable on a bus with quality AC. If you don't have sunscreen it's worse at Chichen Itza. They have a list of essentials listen to them.3. Cenotes Suytun: Arguably the 2nd most essential stop. It's wet. It's busy. So be ready to hit the shower because without it you get pulled out of line and waste everyone's time. The stairs are also slippery so water shoes keep you from dying. Don't bring anything you don't need. Just water shoes (no sandals) and your phoneThe best time to be there is immediately in the morning or between 11 am and 1 pm for that light ray photo. Do not bring sandals and be ready to shower. No shower no water no photo. This is non negotiableThe issue is, without being the first bus there you're either the second or 7th. Everyone wants THAT photo and EVERYONE waits in line for it. You have 30 seconds and then the lifeguard blows his whistle and asks you to move on for the next group to get their photo.One larger group of selfish a-holes needing 34 different photos of each person or different people can screw over two busloads of people. And when there's 3-5 busloads all there at once it's insanely frustrating to wait in line for an hour and not even get a photo. So don't be those people. Get in, 30 seconds photo get out.2. Mayan Village: ok so it was alright. The coffee bar at the end made the best caramel frappe my wife has ever had. But it's insanely overpriced and the demands for tips is off putting. The same bracelets at the souvenir shop downtown Cancun are 7x more expensive there and they have hawks leading you around helping you "shop" ensuring you buy something.Then it's the dancers who want tips. The guys dressed up as Mayan warriors who grab your phone without asking them demand $200 pesos for the photos they take, then it's the guys dropping a basket at your table saying tips are not mandatory but are mandatorySo if you have a guilty soul best believe you need to bring paper money because this place while cool is a frustrating aspect of the tour. The only thing worth it was the Mayan calendar write up about your birthday from the family on site. Absolutely worth the $ and goes directly to the family.3. Chichen Itza: INSANELY busy UNESCO world heritage site. We again did not learn Spanish so we got stuck with an older English speaking "guide" from the facility that we walked away from within 5 minutes.Now look, guides are great but we only had 70-80 minutes to explore and we found out this guide didn't leave the starting point for 40 of those precious minutes and then spent 25 more just at Temple Kukulcan. The people who stayed with the guide only got 15 minutes of time to roam.So don't feel bad about wandering away and doing your own thing. Also, NO drones and NO camera lenses longer than a 24-120 mm. A larger lens on a DSLR will get you sent back to your bus. Pack light, like very light. No tripods no extra camera gear etc. sunscreen IS a must as is water. Don't worry about bug spray either. Not needed at all.All in all Chichen Itza was amazing for us as we wandered off and explored on our own. Not the tour operators fault the facility stuck us with a bad guide so don't feel bad about wandering off on your own but make SURE you know when to be back at your bus.4: Cenotes Ik-Kil. Again, bring extra clothing and a towel and NO sandals. You HAVE to shower again to get the bug spray, soaps, sunscreen etc off of you. They have lockers and shower stalls etc here so it's pretty solid.The walk down the stairs is steep and wet so water shoes again as sandals are not allowed. The bottom is busy and you can't bring anything but a phone with you but without a water proof case there's nowhere safe to put your phone so unless you bring someone who is not swimming don't bring ANYTHING with you down in to the swimming area.You can dry off get changed and grab a bite at the restaurant or bar if you want after5: Spanish Church & Plaza: final stop on the trip was actually dope. First authentic (ish) Mexican town you get to see. The church is amazing, hard to photograph and the plaza is insanely busy but it's really cool. You get 20-25 mins to explore but that's enough to stretch check out a shop or grab a bite to eat.The ride back was amazing and please ensure you have like $20 USD or $500 pesos for the end of the tour because the tip for Juan Hector and Alfredo is worth it and they absolutely earn every cent of itSo again, the tour and the three lads running it are an absolute 10/10 and if you have ANY issues I promise it will be 100% caused because you didn't pack properly, didn't plan ahead, didn't listen to Hector or Alfredo or because someone else didn't listen pack it plan or were just incredibly selfish.Best trip from Cancun hands down.

This was one of the highlights of our trip to Bacalar. The colors of the lagoon are incredible, and seeing them from the water really makes a difference. The tour was calm, informative, and well structured. Our guide made the day enjoyable with clear explanations and a friendly attitude. We never felt rushed and had plenty of time to enjoy the scenery and swim. A fantastic way to spend a morning or afternoon in Bacalar!!

We really liked the tour, the staff is very attentive and nice. The facilities are in very good condition. The best part for us was the speedboat tour and snorkeling. It is perceived as something unique by the route in the lagoon and then the part of entering the sea is spectacular. The snorkel was fine and we got a clear spot, we could see the reef and quite a lot of fish. The Mayan ceremony is very good, because you can take pictures with them and it is something different in the Tour. We recommend it

Very nice visit at an affordable price. The guide was super, very friendly and really cultured. He taught us a lot about this wonder of the world, which made the visit even more interesting. The visit to the cenote was beautiful to see, a real pleasant moment. On the other hand, the lunch food was correct but a little average. Small downside however: it is a pity that there was no French interpreter, contrary to what is indicated on the site. Despite this, I definitely recommend this visit. Thank you for this great experience!

I loved discovering new places in Mexico, the culture was so well explained, it was incredible to visit Chichen Itza and Valladolid, beautiful, a journey to the past, a wonderful place, the shirt was fantastic.

Super recommended the tour, very grateful to the guide and driver, very friendly and patient. We enjoyed it very much, the time very well used.

If you ever dreamed of discovering one of the wonders of the modern world, a tour to Chichen Itza is the perfect choice. From the moment you enter the archaeological complex, the impact of its grandeur is undeniable. With the majesty of the pyramid of El Castillo as the protagonist, this site transports you to the heart of Mayan civilization.The tour is very well organized. Expert guides passionate about the history of the region explain the secrets of each structure, revealing the legends and ancestral knowledge of this impressive place. The Pyramid, known as The Castle or the Pyramid of Kukulkán, makes you breathless, especially when you understand the astronomical precision with which it was built. The tour also usually includes a stop at a nearby cenote to cool off in its crystal clear waters, which is a wonderful experience, especially after walking in the heat of the sun.The guides are very attentive, always willing to answer questions and offer additional details. In addition, transportation options are usually comfortable, and depending on the tour.Pros:Expert guides who make the tour much more enriching.Visits to various points of interest within the archaeological zone.Possibility of bathing in a nearby cenote.Very well organized, comfortable in transportation. The heat can be intense, so it is recommended to bring water and sun protection.

We chose this tour because DE had to return early for dinner with the rest of the family and we managed it perfectly.The PORting arrived on time for us at the DE meet point, the driver was kind to drop us off at our hotel on the way back and give us one or another local tip.EN the stop we bought a couple DE toys for our nephews.Chichen Itza ES simplem ENte impressive, the explanation of the tour was very good and the free time was just to return to take some pictures in the places we liked the most.POR hire EN your excursions with professional operators, we hear unfortunate stories in the hotel.If we recommend this option DE tour if you want to go and return as quickly as possible.Po
