The meet up was just outside of the cruise port at Costa Maya. Ezekiel was our tour guide and Jose was our driver. Small 12 group tour and lots of information along the way which made the 50 minute van ride go by quickly. At the ruins, be ready to walk and get a fascinating history and guide about the culture and the ancient civilization. Really appreciated the insights and the added details on the day-to-day lives of the peoples who built and lived in the area. On the way back, stopped by a small fruit stand and got to taste delicious pineapple. Duration of tour was just perfect for a fun and educational experience!

I am a wheelchair user and have booked a private trip to the Chacchoben Maya ruins and Mahahual. Great trip and a great guide! Many thanks to Costa Maya Experiences!

What an amazing experience! We booked this tour with Ismael and he was very good to get in contact with us and provide instructions and directions. Genesis was our tour guide, and while he was very knowledgeable, I most enjoyed his personality and demeanor. He was very genuine and an instant friend. The company took very good care of us from beginning to end. I can't begin to tell you what an enjoyable experience this was for us. This tour is run by locals, so we were able to get so much more that the standard "tour". Deep insights on the culture along with historical information. Definitely book your tour with this company!

I booked this tour because I needed a vehicle that could accommodate transporting mobility scooters. Ismael Martinez and his assistant did a fantastic job of getting us around and handling that task. From the moment we left the cruise ship we were in touch and I felt like a celebrity as he had friends who were looking for me to make sure I found his tour office. Ismael introduced us to the region that he calls home filling our tour and memories with the intimate knowledge of the area and it's people. We had an intimate tour of the Chacchoben ruins (which he helped restore), the related market area in the ruins where he helped us negotiate prices, etc.. making sure we received excellent treatment. He provided us with native fruit (so fresh) and made us feel as friends not tourists. He introduced us to his village where we met his wife and family. He even went above and beyond duty accommodating our request to eat dinner where locals eat. The food was excellent. As one of the persons on the mobility scooter Ismael and his assistant made sure I was a part of the experience even pushing me when I got stuck. That is not easy. They never acted as if it was a task they were more than happy to assist and in fact we shared a few laughs. Ismael also knows the native flora and explained many of the plants/trees/flowers that we encountered. This was not a tour but an experience and I will definitely book another excursion with Ismael and Costa Maya Experiences when we return to the region.

I would highly recommend booking this tour with Ishmael as your guide, he is very knowledgable about the mayan culture, he welcomed us at Costa Maya and we did a guided tour of about 5 hours. It was great!
