★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 6,657 reviews · 12 hours (approx.) · from $26Our pick

Early Chichén Itzá tour from Cancun with a cenote swim, buffet lunch, tequila tasting, and a short Valladolid visit.

Our guide, Mischel, was Mayan and very knowledgeable, keeping us engrossed with history, the language, and the place during the ride and the tour. By 11am, we were ready to go just as the big tours on buses got in and the vendors were set up. Then we went to the beautiful Ik Kil cenote. The car we were picked up in was new and roomy, with good AC and a good ride. I highly recommend this tour for…”
