The experience is very Nice and the food is very hell

So informative and great tour guide and experience
My best friend and I came out to Mexico for our birthdays and she choose this for us to do. So worth it. Not a huge group bus full of people. Our tour guy was great and our driver drove good. Everything was timed out well and instructions was clear of when and where to meet up after your free time. The buffet food at the cenote was very good. Really enjoyed this informative trip and happy I found this company to book it with.
Response from the operator: What a special way to celebrate your birthdays! 💙 We’re so glad the experience was worth it and that you appreciated the smaller group, smooth organization and clear communication throughout the day. It’s also great to hear that you enjoyed the cenote and the buffet! Thank you for trusting Ocean Tours to be part of your birthday trip to Mexico. We hope to celebrate another adventure with you in the future! Warm regards, Valentina | Ocean Tours

You won't be disappointed!
Amazing time! Our guide was so knowledgeable and told us so many facts about Mexico, Chichen Itza and the Cenote. He knew the history well and it made the tour so much more special. Our favorite part was the Cenote - the changing facilities were clean and well staffed and the cenote was so beautiful! The water was a cool shade of blue and we had fun using the rope swing and floating in the refreshing water. The lunch was delicious and better than expected. The town of Valladolid was charming and we had time to explore a few shops before returning to Cancun. Would highly recommend!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted you enjoyed discovering Chichen Itza, the beautiful cenote and charming Valladolid. It’s especially great to hear that your guide’s knowledge made the experience even more memorable. We hope to welcome you on another adventure soon! Warm regards, Regina | Ocean Tours

You get much and still want to know more
BASIC but multifaced view to maya inheritance. Is appealing and at the same time you want to know more. The two guides, Flotta and Raul, are very competent and sympathetic. Is remarkable and fully understandable their trend to give of mayans the best impression possible
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We're delighted to hear you enjoyed discovering the fascinating Mayan heritage and that the experience left you wanting to learn even more—that's one of the best compliments we could receive. We're especially happy to know that Flotta and Raul made such a positive impression with their knowledge, passion, and friendly attitude. We truly appreciate you joining us and hope to welcome you back for another adventure in the Riviera Maya! Laura OCEAN TOURS

Really glad we did this
So worthwhile, really recommend it. A few picks ups made getting there a bit longer so if you can afford private you’ll avoid that. Valladolid was ok, few shops to see and the streets are pretty, but after a long travel we didn’t get too much from this stop, highlight were the ruins and the cenote though. Loads of stalls at Chitchen itzá, prices get cheaper the seller you are in so be prepared to negotiate and pesos go further than USD. Ocean tours are a good company with nice staff who all work hard and care about doing a good job.
Response from the operator: Thank you for taking the time to share such thoughtful feedback! 💙 We're delighted to hear you enjoyed Chichén Itzá, the cenote, and your experience with our team. We also appreciate your comments about Valladolid and the shared transportation, as they help future travelers know what to expect and help us continue improving. Thank you for recognizing the dedication of our staff. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable adventure! Warm regards, Valentina | Ocean Tours

Why this scores 84
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Chichen Itza with exclusive Cenote Maya and Valladolid free time: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tulum.
How much does Chichen Itza with exclusive Cenote Maya and Valladolid free time cost?
+
Prices start at $90 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Tulum usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Chichen Itza with exclusive Cenote Maya and Valladolid free time take?
+
Plan for about 10 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Tulum is not rushed.
Is Chichen Itza with exclusive Cenote Maya and Valladolid free time worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 84 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 245 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Tulum, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Chichen Itza with exclusive Cenote Maya and Valladolid free time?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Chichen Itza with exclusive Cenote Maya and Valladolid free time suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Chichen Itza with exclusive Cenote Maya and Valladolid free time?
+
Around 86 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Tulum can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Tulum and add a light layer if any part of the 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Chichen Itza with exclusive Cenote Maya and Valladolid free time start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Tulum within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Tulum?
+
On Outty we rank every Tulum experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Tulum Ruins, Turtles in Akumal and Cenote tour, Tulum Guided Tour, Magical Cenote, Lagoon Snorkeling and Beachside Lunch, Chichén Itzá, Cenote and Valladolid with Lunch and transportation. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Tulum?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Tulum?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
