Living Dreams delivers! I heard about them from a friend who had taken tours with them a couple of years ago. When I contacted them- I spoke with John, who made a point of asking what our objectives were (birding for me and archaeology/ruins for my husband). He then designed 2 awesome days for us. When we decided that we couldn't go to Mexico and not see Chichen Itza--he facilitated that too-even though it was only a week prior! We communicated via WhatsApp. John was super responsive--answered all my concerns, even gave tips on restaurants to visit while we were there in Playa. We took 3 tours with Living Dreams while we were in Playa del Carmen. Our first was to Chichen Itza-with David. He was an amazing guide, knowledgeable, informative and patient. The cenote after the ruins was perfect! I saw Turquoise Browed motmots! Our second trip was to Punta Laguna nature preserve and Coba-our guide was Sam and he was great! He picked us up at 4:30 a.m. so that we could get to the preserve in time to see as many birds as possible. At the reserve we had a park ranger who took us in to look for birds. Sam then took us to Coba and on to Akamul for lunch on the beach. Our third trip was to Muyil with Mo and he was fabulous. He made sure that our trip to Muyil was amazing. When we were talking on the drive to Muyil I shared that I had been trying to see a Toucan and he said-"I see them all the time flying across the road" and within 15 minutes he had spotted one and pointed it out to me. He even stopped so that I could get out (safely on the side of the road) and take pictures. It was the beginning of a great day--the nature walk and ruins in Muyil did not disappoint! He took us to an awesome beach for lunch-beautiful, relaxing, a perfect end to the afternoon. Book with Living Dreams, they listen to your goals and connect you with professional guides who make sure that you have a great experience.

Our guide, James, was very knowledgeable and fun! He told us lots of Mayan history and answered any questions that we had. Charlie, our driver, was also a lot of fun. We could understand their English. They also did a great job of explaining the activities we would be doing throughout the day. We really enjoyed having a tour guide at Chichen Itza. Without James, we wouldn’t have appreciated the grand history. The cenote and lunch were amazing! We even stopped for tequila tasting. It was a great excursion and we enjoyed every moment of it!

Had a great time visiting the Mayan ruins, a cenote, and church. Early start helped us see everything we wanted, less crowds, less heat. Appreciated our guide Jessica, she was knowledgeable and was very attentive to make our journey special. My wife and I had a fantastic time and would highly recommend.

We had a great day with Jessica who was friendly, professional, knowledgeable, a good driver, and generally excellent. Chichen Itzá is fascinating, as was Valladolid and the Cenote we visited. Start as early as you can to beat the crowds.

Fantastic day from start to finish we was picked up on time by our guide Alberto and we just chatted about what he wanted to show us when we arrived at the site and he was very knowledgeable on local history. On arrival he had our tickets all sorted and we just walked past a long line of people trying to get their tickets and straight in to the ruins to begin our tour we found all very interesting the time just flew by! Time for lunch and went to an amazing place for a swim as described followed by spectacular lunch all included in the price , I’m so glad we did this tour I’ve no doubt we found the best so don’t consider any of the others!

We took the private tour at 6am to beat the heat and it was perfect ! Enjoyed Chichen Itza before it was crowded. Our guide Fernando made sure we were comfortable and explained the history of the site well. The cenote and lunch was enjoyable. By the time we went to Valledolid it was too sunny and we could cut short the time there ( thanks to our private tour , couldn’t have done it in a group tour ) and Fernando drove and showed us the downtown instead of walking in the Sun. Overall, an amazing experience !

Helios was amazing! Had a great time learning and touring chichen itza. Lunch was great and the cenote was an awesome way to finish out a fun trip. The private van was perfect. One of our party was sick before we started and everyone was professional and understanding. With their help she rallied and ended up having a great time. Good option for families that don’t want to go with a giant group!

Our private tour to Chichen Itza with Guillermo was one of the best experiences of my life! The ride there was comfortable, complete with good conversation and information about the area, culture, and what to expect. Guillermo seemed to hit it off with my kiddo (age 7) and my husband, which was awesome and put us at ease for the whole day. When we arrived on site, the way our entry into Chichen Itza was expedited was unreal! Before we knew it, we were standing in front of El Castillo. We loved being able to just walk and talk and learn and ask questions. My art history-loving heart just about exploded! Guillermo was super patient with our family’s pace. After finishing at Chichen Itza, we headed to an amazing lunch spot and dip in a cenote. Got us “home” safe and sound and not one of us could stop talking about the tour, what we learned and saw - we all just had the best day ever. So grateful for Guillermo’s kindness - we will never forget this experience. Yum bootik, Guillermo!

Living Dreams came highly recommended from our travel agent. Johnny was our tour guide for our excursion. Upon meeting Johnny, my husband and I knew we were in for a treat. He was so friendly and as we began driving he outlined our agenda for the day with specific details. He gave us updates on how much longer it would take to get to our next location. Johnny had a wealth of knowledge on the history of Chichen Itza as well as the states of Mexico. While we were at the ruins, he taught us so much about each piece and well the Mayan history. After leaving the ruins, we headed to a cenote to swim and eat lunch. Johnny quickly recognized that the cenote was very crowded and offered us a change of plans. He suggested eating lunch there and then heading to a different cenote. We agreed with the plan. The lunch was beyond delicious and Johnny was very knowledgeable about it as well. Our next stop was a breathtaking underground cenote. There were just a few other visitors and it truly was a one of a kind experience. Johnny offered so many times throughout the trip to take photos of us together. We enjoyed every moment of our time visiting these beautiful places and we throughly enjoyed getting to know Johnny!!

We opted for a private tour, and it was WELL WORTH the expense to travel at ease to and from Chichen Itza and to have a guide provide us a personalized tour. Claudia, our guide, was just so excellent. She was warm, friendly, and knowledgeable. I really enjoyed our time with her. She and our driver picked us up at our door exactly at 6:30 AM. The drive was peaceful and we felt very safe with our driver, Charlie. We beat the crowds by arriving early. Don't even think about a later start time from Cancun. It will get too hot and the lines coming in as we were leaving were unbelievable. If you want photos without hundreds of extra people in them, go early! The tour was perfect. We loved learning about Mayan culture. We then enjoyed the best meal of our trip in Valladolid. The swim in the cenote was a trip highlight. Unforgettable! We can't stop talking about it. Beautiful. The entire trip was entirely customized. We opted to spend a little longer swimming in the cenote rather than try to add more touring in Valladolid. I can't recommend this experience enough.

Mario was a FANTASTIC, FANTASTIC guide. I was initially a little hesitant to do the private tour given the cost, but holy smokes am I glad we did. Given the commute time to and from Cancun and the amount of time it takes to properly see all of Chichén Itzá, the cost was way more than worth it.
