What people are saying about Uxmal

Small tour (6 people), nice ride (comfy vehicle) + AMAZING tour guide. Jorge was incredible, and we learned SO MUCH about Uxmal. We were a little bummed because we booked a tour for the ruins + Hacienda on a Sunday, and the Hacienda is closed on Sunday? Not sure why they'd let you book this tour on a day when that's not open...but? OK. We had a blast at the Chocolate Museum though. Very cool stuff!

It was a great day with many impressions. The tour guide himself was Maya and was able to explain a lot to us about the culture, history and language. Uxmal is beautiful and should definitely be at the top of your Mexico itinerary.

Superb day with a very jovial and friendly trilingual guide. The day is well paced, the landscapes beautiful and the meal good without being too much. To do absolutely!

Our guide, Gabriel, was great. Very knowledgeable and diligent in taking us from one point of interest to the other.

It was a great day. Very smooth. Israel was a great guide.
