My wife and I were picked up at our hotel in Villahermosa right on time and it was just the two of us, our guide, and one other guest, so it was a nice, small tour group. We first drove to Palenque and were given a very good tour of the site with lots of information. Please note that, to do Palenque properly, you will need to be able to climb multiple buildings that have very narrow stairs. I had wanted to visit Palenque since I was a kid and I was not disappointed. After the Mayan ruins, we were taken to Misol-Ha, which was not on our original itinerary, because rains in the previous days had significantly increased the water level, making it much less suitable for swimming at Roberto Barrios. Misol-Ha was very scenic and we were both glad we went. Lastly, we visited Roberto Barrios, which was also very beautiful. Please note that both waterfalls require some moderate-level hiking. We finished up the day with an excellent meal at Don Muchos before driving back to Villahermosa.It's probably a great trip but why chose such a weird meeting point? No one knew where it was and Google maps kept showing me the wrong adress all the time. I missed the tour after walking around in the rain for over an hour.

It's probably a great trip but why chose such a weird meeting point? No one knew where it was and Google maps kept showing me the wrong adress all the time. I missed the tour after walking around in the rain for over an hour. In the end I took a public bus to Palenque. Why not have a meeting place at a main square, church or a big hotel not sportsground on the parking lot next to Anyfitness?Palenque was very interesting and the waterfalls were beautiful and a joy to swim in. Ramon was an excellent guide and driver!

Ramon my guide picked me up at my hotel and to my happy surprise it was just me and him for the day. He suggested we switch falls for the day to Misol-Ha due recent heavy rains which was a great idea and beautiful stop. But the main attraction Palenque site was amazing. Much less crowded than chichen itza and in many ways more interesting and Ramon was very knowledgeable about the site and it’s history. Had a great lunch at his chosen restaurant and made it back to villahermosa a few hours early which was great bc the listed 13 hour day woulda been way too long. All is all a great itinerary with a great guide. Gracias Ramon!
