    La Ruta Puuc

    Visiting the ruins of Uxmal, Kabah and Sayil or la Ruta Puuc is definitely worth the time! Starting with Uxmal then Kabah and end up with Sayil. Has the time of this review none of the pyramids are temples at Uxmal can be climbed which they could be previously. No bathrooms or water at Sayil..

    Response from the operator: Thanks for the comments, it's nice to know that you enjoy the ruins. Thank you so much!!!

    Horrible

    The Kabah was literally horrible we were told to go to a specific area and then got kicked out for going there we hadn’t even been there for 15 minutes. No refund and not even a chance to just apologize and look around they just kicked us out and took our money

    Best Maya ruins near Mérida

    Uxmal was wonderful. We enjoyed it more than Chichén Itzá. Our tour guide Marco, and tour driver José, were extra nice, caring, and informative.

    Response from the operator: Good morning Eileen, We are very happy to hear her comment, it makes us very happy to know that the Uxmal tour was what she expected. I share your comment with Marco and José. Thank you very much for your comments and have a nice day

    Uxmal and Kabah Ruins Tour from Merida with Lunch: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Merida.

    How much does Uxmal and Kabah Ruins Tour from Merida with Lunch cost?

    +

    Prices start at $272 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 Uxmal and Kabah Ruins Tour from Merida with Lunch 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 Uxmal and Kabah Ruins Tour from Merida with Lunch worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 50 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.8/5 across 4 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 Uxmal and Kabah Ruins Tour from Merida with Lunch?

    +

    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 Uxmal and Kabah Ruins Tour from Merida with Lunch 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 Uxmal and Kabah Ruins Tour from Merida with Lunch?

    +

    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 Uxmal and Kabah Ruins Tour from Merida with Lunch 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.

    What is included in Uxmal and Kabah Ruins Tour from Merida with Lunch?

    +

    Included: Tickets; Lunch; Transportation; and Bilingual Spanish/English Guide. Not included: Gratuities; and Drinks. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    +
