This was the perfect way to visit Chichen Itza. With a private van from our hotel and private guide. Juan was really friendly and knowledgeable. We were picked up on time early morning, we visited the full site before the crowds and had a little time to shop around. Thank you Juan!

Amazing tour with Juan! We just wanted to visit chichen itza without cenote or valladolid. Don’t be wrong, tour name is express but Juan guided us through the whole site and answered all our questions! We received the pictures of the ruins just after the tour, thank you for the great day and memories!
