* A traveler said: "We weren't sure which tour to book during our trip to Merida and eventually decided on this one because of the mix of activities -- we sure made the right decision. We were picked up on time from our hotel lobby (great communication with Amigo Tours prior) in a nice, clean, air conditioned vehicle. The driver was also the guide and was super nice, informative, and spoke good English. Uxmal is awesome (very few tourists), the hacienda is BEAUTIFUL (our tour of 6 people was the only one there!) and the cenote is fantastic (again, we were the only ones there). Lunch was delicious too. Honestly, this was one of the best organized tours we've ever booked on Viator (we book regularly and travel a lot). If you're going to Merida, don't think about it - just book this tour!"

* A traveler said: "This tour was amazing. Our guide Tony (Antonio) Morales went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience. Our family is bilingual (Spanish and English) and we mostly spoke Spanish but Tony was easily able to transition between the two. The tour itself was amazing. I recommend you get an early start and you practically have the sites all to yourselves. The henequen hacienda tour was an unforgettable experience. We were able to see how they processed the plant from the leaves to string. The ruins are also a marvel to look at and climb, the view at the top is an unforgettable one."
