Great time.
Wonderful guide Jorge! We had a great time.
via Tripadvisor
A wonderful tour with the fantastic Alice!
Our guide, Alice, and driver, Mr. Jamie, were absolutely fantastic - we truly loved this tour. Learning about the epic Maya history and mythology evident at Uxmal from Alice was a treat; the lunch spot offered incredibly tasty tacos; and the cenotes captured the magic of Mayan lands - a perfect way to top off the adventure! Cannot recommend this enough!

Great experience
Jorge was great! He was very knowledgeable about Uxmal, the Maya people, and their history. What was especially wonderful was how he presented everything through an environmentally conscious lens, reminding us that throughout history, natural resources have been essential to all civilizations, no matter how scientifically or socially ingenious they may be.

Great experience!
It was simply amazing. The whole tour was very well guided and planned. Jorge, our tour guide was very informative as well as flexible with everything. I went solo and that was one of the best tours I have taken through Trip Advisor and Viator.

Great Mayan Energy. Chāak.
Jorge was truly superb. Truth. He was pleasant, engaging, and very knowledgeable. He led with confidence and a very educated basis. The trip included people from 5 countries I think. He did a great job blending the tour experiences well with everyone. The sites were well chosen and everyone agreed this exceeded other Mayan tour experiences. Uxmal was simply amazing. I wanted more time, but we all needed to move on. Will certainly go back on my own someday. Our family group of 5 thoroughly enjoyed the day. We all slept well. We hope to cross paths with Jorge again someday. Very personable man.

Uxmal, two Amazing Cenotes & Local Food Tour from Mérida: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Merida.
How much does Uxmal, two Amazing Cenotes & Local Food Tour from Mérida cost?
+
Prices start at $300 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, two Amazing Cenotes & Local Food Tour from Mérida 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, two Amazing Cenotes & Local Food Tour from Mérida 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 125 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Merida, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Uxmal, two Amazing Cenotes & Local Food Tour from Mérida?
+
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, two Amazing Cenotes & Local Food Tour from Mérida 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, two Amazing Cenotes & Local Food Tour from Mérida?
+
Around 44 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, two Amazing Cenotes & Local Food Tour from Mérida 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 Merida Street Food Walking Tour, Chichen Itza, Private Cenote/Food Experience & the magic Izamal, Merida Walking Food Tour. Authentic & Local Cuisine. 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.
