  • 5Family fun and learning

    This private tour with our guide Frank was an amazing experience. If you appreciate supporting local community, going at your own pace and getting the history of the Mayan people and this region not found in books this is the tour for you. Yaxunah is stewarded by a community cooperative and they join the tour sharing their experiences. We got an extra treat being serenaded by our guide there in Mayan with an original song he wrote. Our driver Jose was attentive and both him and Frank matched our pace. I’ve been to Yucatán and Chichen Itza a few times and this has been my favorite tour.

He then promised me a free Mayan calendar but when I got it… $30!!! FOR A CALENDAR?! MAN HE DOESN’T DESERVE 5 STARS HE DESERVES TO GET FIRED FROM THIS JOB ON THE WAY BACK HE ASKED ME TO GIVE HIM A 5 STAR REVIEW AND IM LIKE NO MAN I HOPE THIS GUY DOSEN’T OBTAIN THIS JOB EVER AGAIN!!

About Cancun

Cancun pairs a long ribbon of white-sand beaches and turquoise Caribbean water with Maya ruins, cenotes and islands all within easy reach.

The Hotel Zone curves along a narrow strip of land between the Caribbean and the Nichupté Lagoon, lined with resorts and beaches such as Playa Delfines, where the sand is powder-soft and the sea glows in every shade of blue. Downtown Cancun, on the mainland, is where locals eat and shop, with taquerías and evening stalls around Parque de las Palapas.

Top-ranked sights in Cancun: Chichen Itza, Tulum Archeological Site, Isla Mujeres.
