Family fun and learning

Published on Nov, 2024

This private tour with our guide Frank was an amazing experience. If you appreciate supporting local community, going at your own pace and getting the history of the Mayan people and this region not found in books this is the tour for you. Yaxunah is stewarded by a community cooperative and they join the tour sharing their experiences. We got an extra treat being serenaded by our guide there in Mayan with an original song he wrote. Our driver Jose was attentive and both him and Frank matched our pace. I’ve been to Yucatán and Chichen Itza a few times and this has been my favorite tour.

Friendly, educative, fun, perfect
