Armando is an excellent... - Armando is an excellent and knowledgeable guide. He provided great information and historical context to help us understand all that we saw during the day. He also shared his general knowledge about the region as someone raised in the area.

Great tour, great guide - Good tour, the combination of jungle + ruins is perfect. Shanty is a great guide with a super positive attitude. One recommendation though: - at lunch, the food was great, no complaints there, but going to a fancy resort hotel for lunch, feels off for this culture-themed tour. Would have preferred lunch in a more... authentic, down-to-earth setting, possibly supporting a local business.

Fantastic from A to Z - A must do if searching for a whole day excursion with professional and knowledgeable guides. Everything went smooth from pick up to drop off, Lorenzo was fantastic. Tip: bring bug spray.

Great trip - Beautiful ruins in a quiet environment (very few tourists come here). Not too long driving. The guide was very nice and interesting. Do note that as of Jan 2022, the scheduled restaurant no longer accepts guests outside of the hotel so we are going to another restaurant in Bacalar.

Great Tour - Day your was amazing. They had to cancel our tour last minute but easily rescheduled and included an additional tour at no cost! Carlos was absolutely wonderful!! We had an amazing tour and he provided so much information about the sites. The drive to the sites was nice- Carlos is probably the best driver we’ve had in Mexico so far lol. The food was wonderful! We were very happy that they were able to accommodate our gluten free diet. Overall the tour was well balanced, enough information and enough time to explore on our own! We loved Carlos and highly recommend!

Still worth it - It was great but there was a third person that we did not know and they show up in a regular sized taxi cab, the driver and guide were very nice and the lunch was delicious but it was hard being squished into a cab for several hours, but overall I would do it again !!
