This tour was on 5/12/22z First I would like to praise Cesar, the tour guide. He was very knowledgeable and kept things straight forward. Exactly what you would want from your tour guide.
The 3/5 stars are many due to the nature of the tour in regards to the current Covid Pandemic. Non of the mask/rules/temperature checks were followed. i say this not just this tour but literally most of the current chichen Itza tours. the BIGGEST problem i had with the tour was that there were two SICK individuals sitting behind us coughing and sneezing with no masks on. (we moved to the back, luckily there were seats available)
i understand the need to generate business but i also believe anyone who is sick should not be allowed to come in a large group tour, especially those who refuse to wear masks.
Me and my wife needs PCR to go back to USA in 2 days. hopefully will be problem free.

This was an amazing tour! Luis was a fantastic guide. He was so knowledgeable and passionate about Mayan culture. Chichen Itza was hot but Luis gave us just enough time to explore after our tour. Lunch at the cenote was absolutely delicious. Sooo much food. Swimming in the cenote was a bucketlist item we didn’t even know was on our bucketlist. A truly amazing experience. The visit to the colonial Spanish town was a nice finish. With tequila tasting! I highly recommend this tour. Don’t complain about the cost of a locker, life vest, or the drinks. This tour is worth every peso and every minute!! Thanks, Luis!!
