★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 886 reviews · 11 hours (approx.) · from $165Our pick

Review of a small-group day trip from Playa del Carmen to Chichen Itza, Cenote Ik Kil, and Coba, with early entry, meals, and practical tips.

“I don’t think I could say enough good things about this tour. We had a group of six people that left early in the morning from Cancún/ Playa del Carmen and arrived early at chichen itza. The tour was meticulously designed to keep us one step ahead of the massive crowds all day. The guide, Tonantzin, was fun, knowledgeable, high energy, and got us all some great pictures to boot!

Review of a 12-hour Playa del Carmen tour to Ek Balam, Chichen Itza, Cenote Chichikan, and a Mexican buffet lunch.

“We were disappointed that the tour was cancelled the day before. Evidently they did not get enough people to have that early morning tour. Amigo tours offered to put us on the later tour that did not included Ek Balam and did not include viator’s discount. Because we were wanting to go to Chichen Itza we went ahead and took the tour but we were still disappointed that we didn’t get to see Ek Balam and had to go to Valladolid which was a waste of time.
