Excellent experience all around
Booked a private tour for Chichen Itza and a few other local sites… well we both love Archeology and Anthropology and got the BEST tour guide Fausto for the trip. So good that we had so much fun learning and finally seeing things we had read about, we actually spent the whole time just at Chichen Itza and we weren’t disappointed one bit. Even though only two of us we ended up picked up in a nice Mercedes van. The sort of long drive was very comfortable. Entry to the site was very easy. I do recommend asking to get there at opening ( it’s an easy ask) this allows you to beat the crowds and heat a little. Plus you can sleep on the drive. Other note: Yucatán Concierge’s coordinator was very responsive and easy to reach through emails. Highly highly recommend. It is a bit expensive, but you definitely get what you pay for.
Response from the operator: Thank you Anika I am so happy you enjoyed your time in Chichen Itza and very thankful for selecting us for your tour. Your review is really nice and thank you for letting people know how good it is to get there early morning :) I am very happy you liked our service!!! Thank you again

Fantastic short trip in Yucatan
Daniella is fantastic. She put together a great trip that hit the highlights of the Yucatan around Merida in the few days that I had -- Chichen Itza, Uxmal, and the protected wetlands at Celestun. Consistently excellent recommendations for hotels, restaurants, knowledgeable guide for the Maya ruins, and they were extremely helpful with the travel disruptions and changing plans caused by the coronavirus situation. Daniella is always accessible and every aspect of these tours can be personalized to your liking. This trip was too short, I would love to come back to Merida and I would certainly hire Yucatan Concierge again to help arrange the trip.
Response from the operator: Thank you George, its lovely to read your review and we are very happy to know you had a nice trip. Hopefully we will love to welcome you again in the future!!! :)

Private Tour: Chichen Itza, Cenote & Valladolid Magic Town by Yucatan Concierge: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Merida.
How much does Private Tour: Chichen Itza, Cenote & Valladolid Magic Town by Yucatan Concierge cost?
+
Prices start at $568 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Merida usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Tour: Chichen Itza, Cenote & Valladolid Magic Town by Yucatan Concierge take?
+
Plan for about 8 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 Merida is not rushed.
Is Private Tour: Chichen Itza, Cenote & Valladolid Magic Town by Yucatan Concierge worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 49 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Merida, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Tour: Chichen Itza, Cenote & Valladolid Magic Town by Yucatan Concierge?
+
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 Private Tour: Chichen Itza, Cenote & Valladolid Magic Town by Yucatan Concierge suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Tour: Chichen Itza, Cenote & Valladolid Magic Town by Yucatan Concierge?
+
Around 1 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 Merida 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 Merida and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Tour: Chichen Itza, Cenote & Valladolid Magic Town by Yucatan Concierge 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 Merida 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 Merida?
+
On Outty we rank every Merida experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Chichen Itza, Private Cenote/Food Experience & the magic Izamal, From Merida: Chichen Itza Tour, Izamal, Cenote Ik Kil and Food, Chichen Itza Full Day Tour. 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 Merida?
+
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 Merida?
+
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.
