This was an amazing tour. We had 9 people in our group and they provided a van that was very comfortable for all of us. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and personable. The ruins are very interesting and awesome. We would highly recommend this tour!

Family of 6. Easy to book and easy to find after getting off the cruise ship. Guide was Carlos and driver was Victor. They were both great. Knowledgeable and helpful. That doesn’t seem to be a lot to do in Costa Maya and seeing the ruins seemed like the best option. Glad we did it.
