We had an absolutely wonderful day with Juan as our tour guide and Omar as our driver. We started early, but it was well worth it when we were the first people into Chichen Itza. What a magnificent site! The personal stories, history, and jokes from Juan were highlights. He is a seasoned veteran and helped with great photos, guidance, and history. The cenote was spectacular and lunch was tasty. Great little touches made us feel like VIPs.

A real day, a full day, a memorable day.Amazing day. Arturo and Hugo took extremely good care of us, thoughtful, informative, and safe. These are the type of people you hope to meet when you visit a different country and these are the types of places you hope to experience. The day was full of excellent sites adventures conversation and food. There’s no way we could have done this on our own with a rental car.
This was the Most enjoyable experience we had in our entire trip. Hassle-free, safe and memorable.

We had a lovely visit to Chichen Itza and Oxman Cenote. Our guide was Dulce and our driver was Yosmar. We were a group of 7 with 4 adults and 3 kids.
Our transportation was on time, very clean, and safe. He had beverages and snacks ready between stops for us to enjoy along the way.
Dulce was extremely knowledgeable and patient with all our questions — and her food recommendations at lunch led to us having the best meal we’ve had on our trip yet.
Overall, we would highly recommend Absolute Adventure for a private tour and enjoyed our time with both Dulce and Yosmar.

Rod was an amazing driver and not once did we feel unsafe. Highly recommend this team. Thank you for adding to our wonderful vacation!

Best day of our trip to tulum. JJ brought us to some mayan ruins, underground caves to go swimming and an awesome little town for some great food. We ended up going downtown after and it was gorgeous. Beautiful old mission architecture and a lot of cool shops. Gotta choose JJ and his crew when youre down here!

Absolutely fantastic tour provided by Absolute Adventure tours. We did the private tour for 6 people to chichen itza, cenotes, and lunch with walking around in valladoris.
Dulce was an excellent guide who was very knowledgeable and ready to answer any of our questions. We appreciated the flexibility to choose the cenotes we wanted to visit. Also appreciated was how Dulce never pushed us to any touristy shops/traps during the tour. Hugo was also a great driver, picking us up right from the hotel in playa del Carmen to go to chichen itza. Smooth drive there and back allowed us to sleep on the way.
Overall would highly recommend while in Yucatán to see chichen itza and cenotes with a small group. -

Great family experience!Wonderful tour and both our guide Juan and driver Omar out were excellent. Our guide Juan was extremely knowledgeable and great with the whole family and included our teenage sons in the discussion. We arrive early at the site and we had full access. When we got to the conote, we had it virtually to ourselves. The lunch provider was also very good. Would highly recommend this experience especially for a family group.

Don’t look anywhere else. If they have an itinerary you like, book it. I’ve been on a variety of tours and excursions over the years and this company was top notch from start to finish. At first they didn’t show any openings on the day I wanted, but I contacted them and they were able to accommodate. They communicated every step of the way leading up to the tour day, the tour itself was great, and everything ran on time. Not sure how I could ask for a better experience.

Highly recommendSo pleased we opted for the private tour rather than going along with other travelers. Picked our group of 4 up on time from our hotel. Great communication throughout the booking process. Christina was our guide for the day along with George our driver. Both great at their jobs. Early entrance into chichen itza before the crowds was a great recommendation by the tour. Also entrance into an amazing Cénote before the rush so a great experience. Then Christina took us to a traditional Mayan restaurant and explained all the dishes so nice to try something from the region. Finished off with a look around Valladolid town before heading back to our hotel. Great memories made possible by this excellent tour.

We had a private tour with Eddie and our driver yusmar to chicen itza and swimming at a cenote, and I would recommend this tour group. They recommended an early pick up to avoid the heat and crowds which we were really grateful for, followed our pace, were attentive to what we were interested in and offered more information on all our questions, and gave us some great local recommendations to check out for food after the tour. Thank you for sharing all the rich details of the Mayan history with us.

We had a wonderful experience with Eddie on a Chichen Itza and cenote tour. We loved how knowledgeable he was and that he adjusted the tour to our interests. The stop at the cenote was just what we needed after the time spent in the sun. The Valladolid restaurant we visited for lunch was delish. We would happy tour with Eddie again.

We had a great time on our private Chichen Itza tour and cenote swim! Our guide, Eddie, was fantastic. He was personable, knowledgeable, and tailored the tour to our interests. The cenote was gorgeous and otherworldly, the perfect way to cool down after exploring the ruins in the hot sun. Highly recommend this company and Eddie as a tour guide!

We had a private tour with Eddie and our driver yusmar to chicen itza and swimming at a cenote, and I would recommend this tour group. They recommended an early pick up to avoid the heat and crowds which we were really grateful for, followed our pace, were attentive to what we were interested in and offered more information on all our questions, and gave us some great local recommendations to check out for food after the tour. Thank you for sharing all the rich details of the Mayan history with us.
