Summary:
The tour was perfect from beginning to end. Our tour guide, Carlos, is the kind of guy you would like to hang out with all day—so personable, helpful, and full of historical and cultural knowledge.
We were a group of 4 and it was so convenient to be picked up at our hotel and then to travel directly to the sites.
Chichen Itza is a must see. Seeing all of the huge tour groups, I was so grateful we opted for the personal route. The entire site was fascinating. We spent 90 minutes there and it went by quickly.
Oxman Cenote is breathtaking. One of the most gorgeous natural sites I have seen. Take the time to stop and swim!
Valladolid was a very charming town. We shopped a bit in the souvenir shops near the church.
Definitely worth the extra money for a personal tour.

Summary:
Was very nice to have a private tour guide, be the first at the popular temple, learn the facts from an educated guide and have a great quiet lunch. The car was clean and did not smell like car wash air freshener thank God. Abraham was a wonderful guide and the highlight of our first trip to Cancun. The Cenote was a unique experience. If you like animals bring dog treats and insects appropriate for a 1/2 meter iguana.

Summary:
Juan Manuel was an incredible tour guide! We really appreciated his thoughtfulness and also how much knowledge he had during our trip. We had a great time with great conversation. The trip was so easy and smooth. So beautiful to see everything, swim in cenote Oxman, and eat a delicious meal in which he made sure to accommodate my dietary requirements. Highly recommend and ask for Juan!
