I almost gave this a 2/5 (Poor) but upgraded to Good. Note that the ruins are FANTASTIC and the meals good as well. However, we were told roughly 12 hrs before our journey that we would be without an English guide. We chose to push forward with a Spanish guide and use Google translate to ask questions. NO GUIDE showed up plus we totally missed the jungle experience due to a rather confused driver. Upon return to Merida, I submitted a partial refund request through the web site, providing details of our “Most Excellent Adventure” and after about a week (they kept me updated) we received roughly 60% back! Truly amazing. Enough of this - the ruins are worth the time and effort. The murals at Bonampak are UNFORGETTABLE. The trip on the river to Yaxchilan is AMAZING! If we had the time I would rebook this tour (with English Guide!) in a heartbeat with this same company as we booked a tour the previous day and it went like clockwork. Extremely well done.

Great ruins in the middle of the jungle. We saw monkeys close by. We were 14 on the tour (bus) but only three who had booked a guide so we were a small group at the ruins. the guide was brilliant, he made the Mayan city come to life and he helped us find and photograph the monkeys. There was a breakfast buffet at the beginning of the tour which was helpful because we left too early to have breakfast at our hotels/hostels

Well organised trip, we were picked up in time, a nice guide and driver, and they were vegetarian options for breakfast and lunch. The day is long from Palenque but we thought it was definitely worth it! Only thing is that the « get your guide » app was saying we could not get picked up from our hotel as it was not in the pick up area, but we contacted the local travel agency directly by whatsapp and there was no problem- so do double check if the same happen to you!
