Summary: Early entry is a great option. We arrived shortly before the site opened for the day and it was almost like we had a place to ourselves. The guide could to take us directly to each site and make his presentations without having to raise his voice. By the time we left, the crowd of new arrivals had completely packed the entrance plaza. We were concerned about starting the day at 4am, but the modern full size bus was large with big comfortable seats, good climate control, even USB charging ports. It was easy for everyone in a group to sleep on the drive out and then have an afternoon nap on the way home. Tour guide Kevin was knowledgeable, entertaining, energetic, and made the day enjoyable. I can recommend him, without hesitation, to anyone who is thinking about touring Chichen Itza. Manuel did an excellent job driving us across Northern Yucatán through early morning thunderstorms and afternoon showers. He was always in control, and we felt completely comfortable on city streets, secondary roads, and major. Highways.
