ThankYou!

Published on Oct, 2023

Drivers drive carefully and with peace of mind. We were taken to a local restaurant instead of a tourist restaurant. When I asked if there was any beer for drinks, I was told that they didn't have beer, but a local person who was present gave me one. thank you.

Highly personalized service and great prices

Published on Jan, 2018

Fermin, offered a top notch and highly personalized service to our family of four. They offered service to and from the airport and took us on tour to Tulum. Fermin made a stop for us at the super market on the way to our condo, which made the start of our vacation so much easier. They later took us on a tour to Tulum and a cenote. UnitTravel believes in championing local businesses, so they will take you to areas with great restaurants for your pick vs negotiating meals at tourist restaurants. Fermin offers tours to your personal needs rather than force you into a mass group tour. UnitTravel’s driver is also a really fun and professional guy with great English. We loved working with them and will call Fermin on every return to the Rivera Maya. 5 star service!

The day was wonderful! Fermin...

Published on Jun, 2017

The day was wonderful! Fermin arrived right on time at my hotel. He drove a very comfortable, clean van. He was prepared for the heat with cold towels and water. He offered me my choice of routes. The slower scenic way vs the toll road. He told interesting stories about the countryside and the villages we passed through. We met up with his friend in Rio Lagartos who had his boat ready to go. We had a lovely boat ride out to the salt pans passing by alligators, egrets, black hawks, pelicans and two roseate spoonbills. The salt pans were a surreal combination of stark colors ..the white salt, the blue sky, the orange water and the flamingos. It was spectacular! After a great lunch of fresh fish we headed to Ek Balam. Along the way Fermin showed me some fascinating ruins of old Mayan and colonial structures. I highly recommend Fermin and will happily look for him again when I return to the Yucatán.
